Day 12 of the Green Smoothie Experiment

Fab weather for Joe's party - bright sunny and very little wind. The boys (and adults) all had an exciting time feeding the sheep, building dens, exploring the woods, and making the campfire. Thank you!

On the food front I started the day with a blast of grapefruit juice, and then got swept up in the party. Joe has decided he's a pescatarian at the moment and requested veggie sausages. There were baked spuds and carrot and cucumber sticks - and of course there was birthday cake (not raw, but home made).

I'm still in love with baby spinach and had a pint of spinach, orange, banana, and almond milk for dinner.

Just been reading up on the many problems faced by people on long term strict vegan diets - I'm not a strict vegan by any stretch of the imagination - I'm not big on dairy products but I do enjoy a soft boiled egg now and then, and was a pescatarian myself for many years. Veganism is it is a beautiful philosophy, but there do not seem to be any healthy long lived vegans. I think a bit more research is called for.
