can we fix the banking situation with hemp seed pumpkin seed sprouted bread??? and homemade raw cashew raw-genaise (can i say that???) maybe . . .
where else but hollywood do bankers ride skateboards?!!!!! awesome!!!! saw tania enriquez near amoeba and feel excited about plans to confabulate regarding parties and promotions with space15twenty. the groundwork crowd are paying loyal visits and tasting seaweed salad, the corn tamale and have unbeatable enthusiasm for the genre. . . oh and this cool guy from playfood was wearing a "vegans taste like chicken" t-shirt which might as well have said "vegans can have a morbid dry wit" but i was able to contain mine, for the sake of professionalism. a band called 30 seconds to mars came in and i overheard talk about a big tour. and we seem to have some audio-visual geniuses in the neighborhood who are doing work for a serious music producer, think like, the most famous one you can think of . . .
and the cool guys from new italian restaurant vinolio (up the street next door to the beauty bar) have dropped by to show off their french and try super smoothies and lemon poppyseed cake.
can i mention how moist the raw vegan wheat-free almond "cake" part is???? it really gives a nice sense of the vegan raw cake . . .
checked out the facebook situation and twittered up a link to the campaign for safe cosmetics
http://www.safecosmetics.org/
since this whole issue with cosmetics---cadmium in toys and general toxicity has been on my mind lately . . .
i'm really happy about our super MSM sunscreen with no nano-particles or parabens or any of that contradictory stuff . . .
it literally looks like the best stuff i've seen on the market---and yes i can read labels for hours and haggle and haggle . . .
i think the key thing to remember is transdermal absorption!!!
anything you put on your body will be absorbed . . . and that is why for moisturizing---coconut, or olive---or i hear macadamia nut are so sought . . . and the blessed avocado.
so hold on tight we are working on a web site . . .
it will come
valentina was hard at work on the menu---thanks to everyone who has dropped by to try things out . . .
and in other news we are brainstorming some ideas for cleansing and guided programs that will help you feel amazing. i have a lot of ideas . . .
most significant being
aloe, flax, and green juices---
with spirulina and herbal support . . .
lately i love orange juice and carrot too . . . and juicing seems to be the way to have healthier skin . . .
and one last note . . .
http://www.foodnotbombs.net/
i am so happy that we as a business will be able to support the spirit of food not bombs, a phenomenon that i first learned of in 1998.
food not bombs erupts in non-heirarchical spontaneous formations, in the spirit of non-violence and sensitivity to hunger. i've been dreaming of a foodnotbombs hollywood division--and with the generous donations of vegetables from the farmers at the sunday ivar market, i know food not bombs has thrived on the east side, successfully cooking thousands of vegetarian meals for the poor of downtown LA.
even if what we have to offer is small---any good we can do for the neighborhood is all about sparking a revolution of spirit. and that moment of love when a beloved elder, a hero of the deceased blog profiles in poverty, has something to eat for a moment . . .
well you get the idea.
oh and for some reason i am dreaming of my friend rick rasura from prism eye, soul or system, and the old polyphonic spree and wonder if he wants to bring his huge harp in to play????
something about the fountain and plants and peaceful vibe just says harp to me . . . oh what a dream of a party that would be!!!!

just to let you in on a little secret---i have been dreaming of this corner for years---it has a very gravitational pull for me . . . delightful things have happened---like meeting franz ferdinand at 15twenty or seeing dissolver the night before depeche mode went on at vine . . . or well, amoeba is a wonderland of pre-mp3 times . . .
and the CNN building still houses fundraising offices---for the children's hospital it seems . . .
and i miss the days of environmental fundraising 101 when the only thing vegan to eat was a lara bar from groundwork (which my piddling salary could barely afford might i note.) those were the days, but now we have raw vegan cakes galore . . . pesto kelp noodles . . . the most amazing buckwheaties raw granola . . .
oh and so much love to golden bridge for the grandeur and for being a great place to eat when we were unpacking . . .

thank you for your support!!!!
and hennessey and ingalls, long live books and gorgeous art books, though controversially, i love the google books too. . . and see immense benefits for the blind in the digitization project with audio transfer. . . for global literacy . . . and for my own eyestrain in the font modifications . . .
