I loved my daughter's response when telling her I planned on eating only RAW food for 30 days. She cares very much for her mom & was concerned that eating only fruit, veggies & nuts essentially for 30 days might kill me.
Quite the opposite effect is happening though. I am enjoying my huge healthy meals & offering to share each item/drink/treat with my daughters. Some things they like: the crepes, pancakes, all the juices, almond mylk & salads are all hits. The actual meals - not so much. With the volume of food I am eating & my energy not slowing down a bit - clearly I am in no danger of kicking the bucket due to mal nourishment. On Sunday my hubby headed to Lake Louise for 3 days a photo seminar & so we had a girls day. We went to the Lilac festival, Canadian Tire, the Crossroads market (to pick up from www.healthyfunkyfoods.com) came home, weeded the garden for 3 hours solid, then cleaned the house for another 3 hours. Not the most relaxing Sunday I'll admit - but not feeling lethargic & tired either.
I drank some orange juice that was out of this world - seriously. It was like being smacked in the mouth with flavour & so incredibly sweet & delicious. I was sipping sunshine in a bottle - a perfect gardening drink. My younger daughter tried a sip & promptly made off with the rest of the bottle...then her big sister stole it from her of course. Look at these smiling faces.
