Day Ten-Nowhere

I didn't go anywhere today. For two reasons: 1. the muscles running behind my shins were still very sore and 2. there was an incident about a mile or so away from my house where some inmates working outside near a highway overpowered a guard and escaped. They caught one apparently, and the other is on the loose. And coincidentally, there was NO information found online about this situation, especially since there are school buses and children being dropped off left and right in this area! Shoot, I found out through a phone call from mom dukes cause her co-worker got the word from her husband. I only left the house to pick up my daughter from the bus, b.u.t my NJ/NY roots run thick; I never leave the house unprepared. Dude would've met his maker if he ran up on me that's for sure!!

Anyway, I'm starting to get reeeeaaaallllyyyyyyy tired of this juicing routine. Like I said earlier I'm really not one for monotony. I may alternate days of feasting and 100% raw food consumption. My digestion shouldn't take too big a hit since I won't be consuming nuts and avocados. There's nothing like just digging into an organic orange and be on my way.

Did I mention the other day I bought some persimmons at the grocery store? I have to do some research on them; the sticker on the bottom says to eat them like an apple, and they are sure as hell hard as one...b.u.t I need to figure out more about them before I start pairing them with other fruits and stuff.

I've started crochet'ing again...it's such fun. :)

First Order Placed...


I'm happy to announce that this morning I put in an order on amazon.com for a case of 12 wide mouth Quart sized Mason Jars, MSM powder, MSM bar soap and MSM lotion. Oh! And plastic tops for the Mason jars. I hate rust, and would go into OCD overload if my canning tops rusted from excessive washing, plus the nutrients will last slightly longer if I use the plastic tops. No way I'm going to ingest all that juice and there are chemicals leaking from my mom's 1990 tupperware cups.

I feel like this is really going to become a reality soon.

Lately to get pumped up even more, I've been reading a lot of juice feasting blogs online. Seeing how each person's journey is different than the next, the obstacles they overcame, and how amazing they felt is definitely inspiring. Next week I'm planning on a 1 day trial run to familiarize myself with the process itself, and to estimate how much exactly produce I'll need to equal 4-5 quarts of juice. Because I don't have a lot of space, I will most likely buy a few days worth of food at a time...these are the times that I miss my own fridge. A week's worth is just too much space to take up.

And before I forget....for those that are looking to buy these specialty items such as MSM, etc. through these raw food sites, check amazon.com first b/c I saved SOOOO much money for the same brand. Seriously. $12 for MSM lotion on one site, and $8 on amazon and it's still being shipped from the same damn company.



My sentiments exactly.
