healthyvegan, you and mrsvegan have some real talents!!!

There are so many people who want to know that whole natural foods can still be pretty, can still be appetizing, can still be socially fun, and you seem to have a knack for displaying the fact that YES, they can be all that.

This is a really big deal! People need role models. I mean, if anyone needs an eccentric, hippie-ish role model, who pulls baked potatoes out of her purse, I'm right here, but uh, there's a very distinct and important niche that people like you are filling. So happy to see this!

fruitfulveganmama, your pics are also beautiful, and you actually are ridiculously photogenic! (As of course are your kids also beautiful and ridiculously photogenic.)

When I figure out how to "add" you, I will!

I think I eat mostly like the meals pictured in front of your children, where there's a plate, and one segment has some grapes, and another segment has some potatoes, and another segment has some red bell pepper strips or some carrots. So, you won't get any great meal ideas outta me! But it looks like a fun little app!

Just a quick comment that I recently read Wendy Solganik's blog post saying that for her (someone who is somewhat prone to binge eating tendencies), the tendency to spend one's free time poring over recipe books and looking at food porn, was very much part of an unhealthy pattern often practiced by people with binge-eating tendencies.

To some extent, I think this applies to me too, and I am not the type of person, either, who benefits from poring over different pictures of lentil soup, or mushrooms and barley, or even big pics of delicious-looking cut-up cantaloupe. It's just the brain going, "FOOD! I LOVE FOOD SO MUUUUUUUCCCCHHHH!" And I'm not sure that a brain that's in luuuuvvvv with food, not just to combat hunger or give the body enough energy to hold body and soul together, is helpful to someone trying to regain their health or their pos relationship with food.

So I will just leave it at that -- some people have no interest in looking at pictures of food all day; others have too much interest in looking at pictures of food, and it may set them up for overconsumption patterns and dicey food choices.

Pop over to Wendy Solganik's blog, if you want to see why she has said what she has said. She and Chef AJ are the only two people who seem to be speaking about the people with food addiction tendencies, and the people with binge eating tendencies, and I DO listen to what they have to say.

A video with the two of them: https://youtu.be/RE_wNyDjMUY

That is just one perspective, and if it doesn't apply to you, please feel free to disregard!!!! :)

belcimo, your pics are lovely. I particularly like the one from several months ago, with the potatoes, zucchini and carrots, with a little cayenne, I think you said, on top. I could eat the screen!

It all looks super healthy and very, very whole & unprocessed. Love to see that!!!!
