BOOK ANNOUNCEMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy Birthday!!! 02/22/2009
To my ebook,
FRUGAL RAW! I can't believe it has already been ONE year!! (and it's been a good one too - ebook #200 sold last night!) It now and here on out is available for only $14.
From the ebook came my hardcopy through
Amazon in September, which I did due to the multitude of requests for such. To date, it has already sold 86 copies!!! It is a beautiful book. I gave my proof copy to my youngest son who demanded the first printed copy as his own...what better way to insure that than to give him that one? LOL!
New opportunities arise even still - in the Spring, a woman in Canada will begin working on a French Canadian translation of FRUGAL RAW! I am very excited about this!
Also, this week I'll be joining in on Susan Schenk's raw food affiliate campaign! She emailed and invited me over the weekend, and I graciously accepted her offer - more to come on that, but I look very forward to working with her. She is the author of The Live Food Factor — The Comprehensive Guide to the Ultimate Diet for Body, Mind, Spirit & Planet, an award-winning book, with Victoria Bidwell. She gave my hardcopy a glowing review on Amazon, and she not only appreciates just how little I am making on that version with printing costs and all, she was blown away by the quality and the content.
I guess that's it - my "baby" turned one year old today - Happy Birthday FRUGAL RAW!
IN ADDITION~ I have decided to kick the FRUGAL RAW! lifestyle up a notch by creating a daily blog on just how to live this lifestyle without losing your shirt! Visit me daily as I discuss everyday frugal raw living:

Mattye's Favorite Quotes
"So long as we are in the world, we shall meet with adverse influences. Day by day and year by year we shall conquer self, and grow into a noble heroism."
Ellen White
"Ministry of Healing" circa 1905

"If you don’t enjoy or believe in what you are doing, you may do it for a few weeks or even a few months, but eventually you will revert back to your old eating habits, and then your old appearance."

We laid our precious baby kitty to rest today. It was a total blind-side. I took him to his vet to have him neutered and he died coming out of the anesthesia. He was only 6 months old. He had two cardiac arrests. They brought him back once. They said in 15 years it has only happened 3 times. They said he most likely had an undetected heart condition.
He was growing into an amazing cat - he gave kisses - sometimes without being asked; he played hard and loved sweetly. He would cuddle for hours, and then become an unstoppable ball of energy.
Everything feels upside-down. I keep looking for him in all of his favorite places and then I realize I'll never see him in the flesh again. My hubster and I are big sob buckets right now. Precious Wormwood - you are dearly missed and forever remembered.
