I'm down to nothing in my cupboards and fridge, and I went out on my bike to go pick a few things up at the grocery store. But suddenly, I zigged instead of zagged, and ended up at the consignment store where I spent my beans on 3 summer tops! (That's nourishment, right?)
Fortunately, at $2 each, I still had some left over for food. ;)
But did I go to the grocery store from there?

Since May 1st, just a tender 7 days ago, I once again turned to raw and health.
I've found some new recipes, am back to smoothies and health-consciousness, and I bought myself a bicycle. What a relief it is. All of it. I'm feeling better by the day. Oh and the other thing I've been doing is a 30-day Ab Challenge.

Hey Rawkers...
Life in the VitaMix continues... I am living in London, Ontario, in order to be close to my Mom. I've been staying with a couple friends in a couple towns, and now as of next week, will have my own little loft in a house shared with a nice woman. Aaaaahhh loving the thought of settling in somewhere.

I made THE most delicious green juice today!
I halved a long English cucumber length-wise (seen here, cut again) and put the unused half in the fridge. Sliced up 3 stalks of celery, 2 small green apples, 1/2 a lemon, and added a little bit of parsley.
It was a beautiful and very nutritious green drink.

Lots of fiber (27% per 100g)
vitamin C - reduces inflammation in the body, and wards off colds & flu

Mango & Beet Salad
recipe from 'Reversing Heart Disease' Program by Dr. Dean Ornish
I tweaked it by not cooking the beets... so I kept this meal 100% raw. I spiralized them instead with my trusty 'Spirooli', then cut them up a bit. I also didn't use 1/2 cup of the red onion...probably more like 1/4 cup, if that. Alsoooo...

Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become.
