Raw friendly people everywhere!

In the run-up to Christmas it seems that every place I go there are mincepies or gingerbread or similar seasonal treats on offer. So I find myself politely declining, if pressed I tell ppl I am eating a raw fruit & veg diet and I am so pleased at how supportive and raw friendly their responses have been.
Ok, so I'm living in Glastonbury and it's an open-minded, alternative, creative, spiritual community. Most commonly I am asked what I will eat on Christmas day, so I talk about a Christmas spiced orange and cran juice, dried figs and dates, and how good it feels to eat lightly and frugally.
Yesterday evening I visited a friend who offered me dinner, as a spur of the moment thing. Her daughter put together a delicous salad in a few minutes and they were pleasantly surprised at how satisfying and straightforward a salad could be on a winter's evening. No stress socialising!
