I’m excited to announce that the Delicious Life Blog was listed in the Carnival of Healing on About.com this week. The writer of the column, Elizabeth Harper, chose to post my last entry about healing yourself to heal the system. Elizabeth is an intuitive teacher who works with color, and she used her knowledge of the chakra system to group all of the sites she gathered. Mine is under orange, the Sacral Chakra, which relates to reproduction, creativity, joy and enthusiasm.
Elizabeth has a great site – http://sealedwithlove.com. Visit her cool blog to get your “week in color” reading. Each week she offers three colors – you choose the one that’s most attractive to you. Then read the prediction and meaning attached to your chosen color.

Hi! I love these newsletters, so I thought I’d make a little contribution and share some things I have learned from living in Greece. Not the cleanest city pollution-wise, but there are daily farmer’s markets filled with local vegetables. I am learning a lot about the Mediterranean diet. Something I have learned is that Greeks don’t really take vitamins. They truly rely on their food for nutrition. One of the staples are wild mountain greens (horta), sold in heaps at the markets. The greens are bitter, so they boil them to take the edge off, then squeeze lemon on them, or spruce them up with other recipes which I am only beginning to learn. At first I thought that by boiling they just leaching the nutrition, but I actually learned that they DRINK the cooking water. Maybe not the whole pot, but a friend of mine reserves two mugs of cooking water and drinks it every time. I’ve tried it, and it’s pretty tasty. I make sure the greens are organic, though.

That’s an awesome tip. I have also drunk the cooking water from vegetables before – it tastes like a mild green drink. Bitter greens are very good for the digestive system, particularly the liver.
I bet that Greek people don’t take vitamins because they get so much of them from the very fresh food, healthy fats and the Mediterranean sun. They are lucky to have fresh, local produce year round.
