On the 7th day, she rested from all of that monotonous apple carrot juice. And she saw that it was good.
Breakfast was two green pears and two fennel bulbs, juiced. Not bad. Better when I let it sit for about 20 minutes and let the flavors mix. It was fun watching my 10 year old run around with fennel fronds sticking out the sides of his mouth while he got ready for school.
For the rest of the day I made two juices.
Juice the First: slightly modified Reboot Rainbow Salad Juice from www.jointhereboot.com. Not bad. I like the salt in there - it's a nice break from all of the sweet for the last several days. The purple kale is a little overpowering. Might try it with spinach next time. Or just take Chlorella capsules and leave the green out of the mix. By the way - you know that reaction you get when you slice onions and you cry? Imagine pulverizing every cell wall of the onion instead, releasing millions of tiny tear-gas bombs into the air, and then breathing that. Note to self - next time using an onion in the juice, breathe through a slice-of-bread mask. And put the onion in last. Next to an open window. With a fan.
_________
four small zucchini
two regular sized slicing tomatoes
1/4 of a purple onion
5 purple kale leaves
two carrots
pinch sea salt
pinch fresh pepper
Juice the Second: Sunset Blend, also from www.jointhereboot.com, also slightly modified. Pretty good. The sweet potato tastes powdery. I'll need to get used to that.
_________
two golden delicious apples
two carrots
one medium sized golden beet
one red bell pepper
one cara cara orange
one large-ish sweet potato
Beyond day three, barring life-shattering epiphanies, and until new clothes need to start happening, nothing is really very interesting. But tune in tomorrow, when Ariana says "I lost _____ pounds in the first week!" (It's not nuthin'!)
