RAW WEDDING CELEBRATION
AUGUST 5, 2010 5 PM
|  | |
Your are invited to a raw food wedding celebration
Cody and I are very excited to announce our wedding celebration. Although we did have our full wedding in Hawaii on December 31, 2007, we never filed legal documents. And as many of you know I'm not a Canadian so in order to change my name and acquire permanent status in Canada, we have to go the legal route. So I thought, why not have a celebration and a wedding cake too!
Please RSVP so we know how much cake to make. We are having an amazing raw wedding cake made by my dear friend, Mary Esau who makes the most amazing raw cakes ever!!!
Please bring a raw food dish that serves 4-6 people, your own plate, fork etc. Please call if you need help or questions on a raw food dish.
I am so excited and hope to see you all!!
The potluck will be held at Journey of Health and starts at 5 PM. No potluck on August 15th.

 by Russell James
Serves 4-6

salt is added)
2T salt
2c baby tomatoes, sliced
1c hulled hemp seeds
For the dressing
3 avocados
2 chipotle peppers*
½c olive oil
2T agave

chili powder, garlic powder and tamari/nama shoyu.
Remove the stems and then wash and cut the kale into small
pieces. Place into a bowl, add salt and start to massage the kale until
it wilts and takes on a 'cooked' texture.
Add the tomatoes and hemp seeds to the bowl and mix in by hand. Blend all ingredients in a high-speed blender until creamy and
mix into kale by hand.

TESTIMONY
|  Raw Food Heals Family Ailments
Dear
Tonya,
There
have been many times I wanted to write and thank you and tell you how much you
and Journey of Health have helped me and my family. You may be surprised to
know how much you have helped me unknowingly and that is why today I finally
sat down to write this email to you.
My
son has a neurological disorder and is allergic to many foods, like gluten,
casein, food color, beans, corn, etc. I have tried every kind of diet like
GF-CF, SCD, BEDA and D-Enzyme. Few diets are good for him and preparing new
foods and diets were really difficult for me. And the foods have no variation.
I was half-witted, how can I sustain my diet at the same time and give him
proper nutrition?
One
day I was waiting for one of my friends near Scotia Bank. There was enough time
before she arrived so I wanted to take a walk to the nearby shops. Suddenly I
see a strange signboard (Journey of Health) with a nice red apple picture on
it. I was so curious and went into the shop. One tall guy was there (Cody). I
didn't ask him anything just browsing the inside of the shop and the shelves. I
was really surprise to see the label of the items: "RAW FOOD". The tall guy
came to me and very friendly asks me if I needed any help. I ask "What is
raw food?" He told me there is one class next Sunday to introduce the
recipes of raw foods and the class is free of cost. I thought, "Raw food and
recipes, how was it possible? I was so curious. Did he tell me "free"? I
didn't hesitate a single moment, I registered my name for the next Sunday.
The next
Sunday class was waiting for me with lots of surprise and excitement. After
coming back home I served some samples to my son and my husband (who is the
pickiest eater in the world), they finished those with in few seconds and I was
so happy that I decided to go and learn seriously about raw food. I attended
the Raw Breakfast Class, the Green Smoothie class, the Level I Chef
Certification class, the Juice Class, Raw Pasta Class and many more I can't
remember. Every time I go to a class I learn new things.
Tonya,
you and Cody are so knowledgeable that I can get any questions answered from
you. I would especially say your store is a one stop raw food shopping store. I
can get all my raw food ingredients, supplies, gadgets and knowledge all in one
place. The last one and a half years my family has been 40% to 80% on the raw
food diet. And we are so happy. My son's allergies are getting less, my husband
is getting enough enzymes, and my acidity as well as my migraine is almost
gone.
Now
you know Tonya why I told you that you have saved our family. I am thankful
that you and your husband are passionate about raw foods and love educating
people about this wonderful new way of eating. God bless you my friend.
with
love
Sana
