Thinking...


Well. It didn't work. I had plans to eat all raw today to purge my system and it didn't work. I feel bad. (like emotionally, not physically) It started off great. Well, actually, let me tell you guys what happened. I made that green smoothie yesterday and like I said, it didn't taste very good. I kinda had to force myself to drink it, cause I had about a quart of it. Anyway. I made myself a huge glass after I woke up this afternoon and had plans to drink that and eat some cashews and call it a day. Well, things were going great, but I was in the family room watching "Passions" (don't ask why...) and I had gone into the kitchen to get something. When I came back to sit down, I knocked the glass of green gloop allllllll over the carpet....Well, needless to say, I wasted it all. So, I was kinda glad (except for the rush that I went through to get it out the carpet) that it was gone. I clearly needed to make some more so I would have food until I could get to the store. I made a really yummy Berry Peach Cantaloupe smoothie. I had some more cashews. But, of course you all know that smoothies don't last very long on the tummy.

I had plans to go to the supermarket tonight (providing my mom drove me) to get all the items I needed to make some raw lasagna. It was gonna be awesome and I couldn't wait. To make a long story short, I wasn't gonna be able to make the lasagna because I didn't have all the necessary ingredients. I would've had to sprout stuff, and soak stuff for hours. So, we went to the store and I bought some veggie burgers and some chik'n nuggets and some rice dish. Sigh. I ate two veggie burgers and some chips. And because I was starving in the car on the way to the store, I had some Chips Ahoy minis. I also realize now that I feel bad physically too. I'm bloated and stuff. I really need to hurry and start this raw thing before I explode. The problem is all the prep time that it takes. Every time I find a recipe, I realize that i wind up having to soak and sprout stuff for hours on end, so it'll take me 2 or 3 days to make something that will only take 10 minutes. It's a bit frustrating. But oh well. I'm leaving tomorrow to go to Delaware so I can go on this cruise with my brother and his girlfriend. No blogging for me, probably, but at least all my food will be prepared. Hopefully I can find some good raw stuff on the ship. Sigh. I really hope so.

In the meantime, enjoy the recipe I was going to make tonight. Click here.
