1/8 Watermelon
1/4 Cantaloupe
1 Peach
1 Pear
2 Pineapple Spears
Handful of Strawberries
2 Small Bunches of Grapes
This concoction was absolutely heavenly and I lovingly named it my "Pink Lady" juice. :-) Soon after I finished the juice and took care of some things around the house that needed attention, I felt like walking. This time I intended on taking Buddha for his first ever walk out in the world.... Needless to say, the whole 1.2 mile walk to the post office and then back home turned out to be more of a workout for me than I bargained for. :-) Since he is only 14 weeks old, he was so excited to be out in the big world with his Momma! He was like a ferret that kept seeing something shiny on the other side of the street, so the entire time my right arm is pulling or pushing him back on to the shoulder and in the grass since there are no sidewalks. Not to mention, he loved to run ahead of me and then stop dead to smell or look at something... right in front of me. So between the tripping over him and constant struggle to keep him from getting run over, I think I gave myself a pretty decent workout! We were definitely pooped when we got home. He's a puppy and he will learn. :-)
After the walk, I found myself starving and decided to make lunch. Since I had eaten only fruits for breakfast, I wanted to make sure that I had more than enough vegetables for lunch. So, I decided to be a little adventurous and push my boundaries and taste buds.
4 Carrots
1/8 Honeydew Melon
3 Celery Stalks
3 Leaves of Roman Lettuce
2 Apples
1 Small Ginger Root
1/4 Lemon
I definitely have to work on my taste buds more! I could stand the first half of this REALLY tall glass... but I had trouble getting through the second half. Keith was definitely right! Celery and lettuce taste like grass when juiced!!!! Not much masked it either. Not my favorite, but certainly not the worst... I'm still scared to even look at the beets! :-)
The rest of my afternoon went smoothly as a "lazy" Saturday afternoon should. I cleaned, arranged, called and talked to grandparents just to catch up, watch a couple shows, read a little bit, took care of the puppies... and before I knew it, it was past 6 pm! I still hadn't finished lunch by this time and was feeling rather full, so again I skipped dinner.
Well, I am going to cozy up with an episode of Destination Truth and settle in for the night (no party nights for this girl for a while!). Thanks for following! Talk at you tomorrow!
