Introduction

My raw food voyage has been amazing! I have been raw since April 2007, after being diagnosed with Advanced Systemic Lupus. I was worn out, really sick and unable to function normally at the time. Within 2 weeks I saw a marked improvement in my healt

What Denise Rispoli (Becknell) is saying about this Meetup Group

This meetup is the place to be if you want to live a long and healthy life. The people who are a part of this group are amazing, warm and concerned citizens who see beyond people's differences and join together to share their lifestyle of healthy eating, conscious living and overwhelming joy! This meetup is more than just a place to share food -- it is a place to be a part of a growing community of concerned and compassionate people who love the earth and the creatures who inhabit her. We are also most passionate about sharing the wealth of information we all gather about living well and we love to share our experiences, recipes and ideas with other members.

Welcome to the group! I love the idea of doing a ritual around your fire pit! So far we have been more of a social group, but it would really fun to do a little ritual work. Hope you come to the meetup this Saturday and we can discuss it. Seems like there are a bunch of new people who rsvped to this one. :)

Hi Denise! I was in your cafe today and really enjoyed the food is there any way to take a cooking class so that I can learn to make some raw food meals?

Our average speed is difficult to gauge, because we stop and go in many places; however, I don't think it is over 16 mph.

Sunday morning rides are fun, too. The most difficult part of this ride, for me, is the ride from Ballast Point up Bayshore Blvd. to Davis Islands. This is because of my lack of endurance. Everyone rides together and this is a no drop ride. Everyone meets where the side walk ends (before going over the Davis Islands Bridge). The rest of the ride is easy.

Hi Denise,

After reading your bio, I don't think you will have any problems in regard to keeping up with the group. Wednesday Night Lights ride is a great group. It is a VERY casual ride through Hyde Park, up Bayshore (starting at Bay-to-Bay), around Davis Islands & Harbour Island, through Channelside, into Ybor (where we stop for a beer), back through downtown, and then a short ride back to our starting point. I think it is about 12 to 15 miles. Our average speed is hard to gauge.

Hi Denise!

I would really like to go to the events at Leafy Green. Unfortunately, I live in Sarasota and currently am not driving. I would be more than happy to pay for gas for someone who could give me a ride.

Hi Denise. Are you doing anything special for Valentine's Day? I live in West Palm Beach and my partner and I might want to take a trip west to try out the raw food restaurants. Where would you recommend we stay?

Thank you, Caroline Sederbaum
