Last night I went out for sushi and sake and then we had a glass of wine at a local wine bar. It's not like I even wanted a glass of wine that much, I just thought "last one for three months!" It wasn't even very good wine - or maybe it was served a little too warm.
This morning, my computer had rebooted itself so my alarm didn't go off (need to find out how to turn off automatic updates!) and it was overcast and I felt groggy and thought maybe I overslept by a few hours, but no, it was 8am and I think the grogginess was from the wine and sake.
I wanted to have a bunch of produce all ready to go today, but yesterday morning I was just too involved with giving my cat her medication and force-feeding her and then it got to be that time when maybe a delivery driver might show up and I was waiting for some juice feast supplements to arrive and didn't want to miss that. So, I walked to the discount/overstock grocery this morning and got a gallon of purified/reverse osmosis water from their machine outside and 6 grapefruit, a baby watermelon, a cantaloupe and some chocolate mint growing in a pot. I saw some juice recipes that use mint and the mint we have growing in my boyfriend's yard hasn't really taken off yet, so I'm going to try and grow this one on my balcony. Maybe in a month or so I can actually use some of it.
After the discount grocery store, I turned around and went to the produce store. I have to remember to go there first. I had been excited because a few days ago they had bunches of locally grown lettuces: butter, red leaf, romaine, for 99 cents each, but today they were up to $1.99. I figured the price wouldn't last, but I hoped to at least get some. Mainly I think the celery (not even organic) is expensive at $2.99 a bunch. You have to really be careful at this store but they do have some good deals, like right now they have locally grown oranges 3 pounds for a dollar. Besides the oranges, I like their little section of marked down produce - sometimes they have really good stuff although you have to be careful about whether the prices are per package or per pound. This time they had baby watermelons for 99 cents each, which is a dollar cheaper than the discount grocery, so now I think I will always go to the produce store first.
Juices I had today:
Cranberry-lime (sweetened with stevia)
Celery-butter lettuce-romaine X2 (better than I thought it would be)
cantaloupe (mmmmmm...)
A little hungry sometimes, but then I just drank more juice or I ate some of the raw, unfiltered local honey my boyfriend bought me the other day.
