Lots of lovely juice today - grapefruit juice this morning, and then I made up a large batch of carrot, ginger, celery, and coriander juice - delicious. Tomorrow I'm going to go for a bright orange carrot and ginger juice, and then use apples as a base for my green juice so that the colours are beautiful as well as the taste.
I treated myself to a lovely organic mango, and was just about to make a lovely mango and spinach green smoothie when Joe and Dave (my son and husband) appeared and we all shared the mango. It was very delicious - we could just have done with one each! It's times like this when I wish that I could grow mangoes here in England, and be a lot more sustainable.
I think my ideal diet would be loads of fresh juice or juicy fruit, a green smoothie or juice, and a crunchy salad, or raw desert for variety. There are some savory greens (like coriander) that are lovely in salads (and juices) but that I'm not so keen on in smoothies.
Savory raw energy soup with curry spices can be lovely in the winter - especially if you gently warm it up. But I'm missing crunchy salads at the moment, and looking forward to eating them again in a couple of weeks:)
It's my sons birthday party tomorrow, and were taking him and a group of mates out on my husbands nature reserve to feed the sheep and make dens and bonfires! So fingers crossed for some beautiful sunshine.
