Thanks for the encouragement. Yes, our chat in that cozy little pub made a BIG difference in my life. I will be forever grateful for that talk. I could use some suggestions on good cookbooks so when you get a chance send them my way. I will keep you posted on my progress and the way I am feeling. So far, so good. @Lori Peterson, I feel your energy all the way from Canada. Thanks for the encouragement. Yes, our chat in that cozy little pub made a BIG difference in my life.

I just watched the DVD Forks over Knives last week and I wish everyone would listen to this incredible research information. We have SO MUCH POWER to heal ourselves, be healthy, full of energy and live longer. I have been reading a lot and preparing myself mentally to make food choices that are more plant-based. I try to be as creative in the kitchen as I am in my studio. And I must say I am feeling great! My Mom, who had a very healthy lifestyle, died of bladder cancer. The doctors said that it had probably been developing for 10 years... I am 57 and I want to avoid that and live to be 100 years old, just like my Grandma :) So GO FOR IT Gwen, GO FOR LIFE!!

Good for you, I know you will do it ... and I promise you will be pleasantly surprised with how tasty and appetizing vegan food can be. I'm sure you have received many suggestions for cookbooks and websites, but if you want any more (from someone who has been following a vegan diet for almost 2 years and has NO desire to go back!) just let me know. I've thought of you often, after our chat in that cozy little pub on Vancouver Island, and wondered if you had made any decisions in this directions. Just remember to go easy on yourself ... any little change you make is going to benefit your health. And don't forget you have a few Canadian friends cheering you on! Regards, Lori You GO, Girl!

These are incredible! I've never seen anything even remotely like them. And to think there are so many and by so many different sculptors. Ah, yes, the imagination is quite something. Thanks for sharing them and I'll see you more over at DFW! Gwen!

My blood pressure's been creeping up and up for several years. I decided to give the DASH diet a try last fall and that's been helping, but I decided to push it further. I'm just finishing week 1 of Wholeliving Magazine's 28-day challenge (wholeliving.com\challenge). I've done surprisingly well skipping dairy all week and only had a couple of servings of chicken. (Plus I've avoided the office candy dishes all week—that's HUGE.) I've lost several pounds and my BP the best it's been in a couple of years. I already feel "lighter" and more energized.Good stuff.

Your posting here has inspired me to let go of dairy, so I thank you for that. My art is moving forward, however the blogging seems to be at a standstill. I am just trying to "trust the process" right now. In the meantime, I try to keep reading blogs, however. @gwen, You are right, Gwen!
