Juicing Gone Wrong!

I made the most God awful juice last night! It was supposed to be a green juice so I started with – broccoli stems, celery, green peppers, parsley and ginger.

I tasted it and knew no way lee was gonna drink that..so I thought lemme sweeten it up....so I added carrots, cantaloupe and a kiwi.

Tasted it again. STILL NASTY. But I wasn’t gonna throw it away...we were gonna drink this come hell or high water. Looked again in the fridge and found left over grapefruit juice from the night before. So I got a fancy glass and put half grapefruit and half green/everything under the sun juice. The color and taste was much to be desired but I told Lee to pretend it had liquor in it! Now waiting to see what effect that had on our poop!

We're Juicers!

I'm reading this fantab book called Crazy, Sexy Diet by Kris Carr. It was recommended to me by my friend Kristin who knows all things healthy. I was looking for a good book to read anyway, and I thought why the heck not. It's a great book for anybody who gives 2 hoots about their health. What I like about it is how the author puts information in simple, funny language. I've been so inspired that I went and got our first juicer yesterday! We spent the night making concoctions to die for and it was so yummy that I'll never buy juice in the bottle again. We made a celery, carrot, beet, lime, orange, grape juice...we got a little crazy but it was fun watching the fruit go in and the juice come out!
