Oh Susan! There’s no better “comfort food” than home-made apple sauce on a snowy night. Just made some this afternoon. I’m gonna try your baked pears too. Absolutely divine. You’re brilliant, beautiful and amazing!! Thank you.

Stewed fruits
Baked fruits
Chopped up salad fruit...

Stunning what
We've been given
Isn't it...

Lovely...
Divine, what a word!

Refined white
Sugar

Yes, you are right...

Redefine
Comfort...

On 12/13 Janelle asks:

Hello Susan, This website is fantastic, thank you!
what do you think of the Amy’s organic line of vegetarian frozen dinners?

And, what about chocolate??

I love Amy's....
Never had the frozen dinners but...
Many a night
Amy has made a difference in my home....

And, about chocolate...
Why bother
With what most people
Think of when
They say chocolate....

I was raised
In Australia
On chocolate chocolate, so...
When I eat it
It's the most astounding chocolate or
I don't bother...

And, again
Always

Never a problem
When you have built
A foundation of wellness....

Eat it as it is..
A delicacy
Not, the way millions
Are eating chocolate

And, thank you
I love the site
And am thrilled you do also...

On 12/13 Edie asks:

Hi again Susan. Food question. I love pastas. I have found organic brown rice pasta. Is this a good food or bad?

Pasta is refined food
Never seen a pasta tree
However...nothing wrong with it

And, as you've found
You can get very
High quality versions....

Refined white horror pasta
Or
Organic brown rice
Or
All the other higher quality noodles out there....

And, no good or bad..
Just high or low quality
How much are you eating of it
Are you also eating whole grains
How much are you moving...

All of it connected
To everything....

Organic brown rice pasta...
You probably can't get much better than that..
What the hell does it taste like?

Susan Powter

On 12/13 su asks:

what are your personal favourite staple straches/grains that you eat susan?oatmeal,brown rice?do you consider whole grain brown rice cakes ok to eat?

Oatmeal
Not a whole food

Ever seen
An oatmeal tree?

Always a good question
To ask....

Favorite whole grains...

Brown Rice, absolutely
Barley...so much we'll do with it
Wild rice...sexy as hell

Probably the three
I use most...
Out of the thousands
Of varieties
Available to us....

And very important
OK, doesn't exist...

Real vs fake
Whole vs processed
Clean vs poisoned

What I do with rice cakes!
What I'll be doing with rice cakes!

Yes...

On 12/13 Celeste asks:

Ok..maybe a dumb question. Re: the daily caloric consumption chart....is that the caloric intake for maintaining that weight or loosing weight.

Thank You

As sister Mary said:
No such thing as a dumb question....

For losing weight
You must eat
And
Depending on activity level
And what you weigh

Eat
A lot...

The polar
Opposite
Of dieting....

With

The polar opposite
End results...

It works...

Five, six
Small, whole real meals a day...

It's the way...
