juice

today i decided to juice
i often don't
it's expensive and messy
and then i always feel the need
to do something with the pulp
which takes time

what i really want to do
is a 30 day juice fast
but
i'm not sure i can do that
for various reasons
so i'm only committing to working more juice into the mix

so today
i made a pretty passable borscht juice:

4 small beets
1 bunch of celery
2 large lemons

a juice that made me feel like i was drinking chocolate milk:

1 small bag of carrots
1 large cucumber

i'm not sure how it was chocolate milk-like
it wasn't chocolate-y, obviously
but i've never liked carrot juice much, too sweet

then i made a zinger cooler to go with my salad for dinner:

romaine lettuce [maybe 7 large leaves]
1 bunch of celery
2 limes
1 large hatch chile



i think i may take one or two of the pairs of shoes back
i really like the rykas

and i ordered some healthforce nutritionals products today
[it was only a matter of time, right]
vitamineral earth and macaforce vanilla spice
and an acerola cherry powder [vitamin c]

i got pretty good prices on them

the vitamin c
i'm gonna see if it makes me feel better than emergen-c
since maybe whole food vitamins are better
the maca is supposed to be extra potent
but i think i really bought it as much for the
flavor and synergy [other ingredients]
i use maca regularly
but my thinking was
i'd mix the maca and the earth with a banana
and maybe some almond or coconut milk
and my coconut oil
and have a kind of coffee/chai/esque breakfast smoothie
the acerola powder and the msm seem like obvious pairs as well

i didn't buy vitamineral green
which is like their flagship product
or cornerstone
or whatever
but
it was already getting kinda pricey
and history has led me to believe
that i will not drink green powder


anyway
i don't know why
but i'm falling asleep now
so i'm going to bed
thinking of you
