Thought for Food

I’m doing a juice fast today through Wednesday.  These are most of my ingredients.  Not pictured: ginger, lemons, parsley, and other herbs from M.’s garden.  (I’m using the rice protein powder and almond milk to thicken fruit smoothies. I’ve had the liquid chlorophyll in my fridge for ages, and figured I’d really gild the lilly and add it to green juices.)

I think I’m going to have a salad for dinner.  I was satisfied with my breakfast smoothie, positively delighted with my kale-broccoli-carrot-apple juice for lunch, and I’m looking forward to a post-work, pre-Tracy beet-carrot-celery-ginger juice — but I can’t shake the feeling that juicing is a waste of great ingredients.

Moreover, how lame would it be to sip juice while M. eats his dinner?  Not very neighborly.
