I am back to food... it is so good to enjoy every bite in a fuller way after fasting for four days. The flavors are huge, and the food seems so quantiful, even one slivered almond.
Last night I broke my fast with protein, my body was really wanting fish. I had salmon cooked in olive oil that I put on a bed of fresh spinach (that willingly wilted under the steaminess).
Today I juiced for breakfast, then made an amazing soup of veggie stock, turnips, carrots, celery, cabbage, fresh thyme and fresh rosemary. It feels earthy and homey, this little cup of cubes,
leaves and circles.

Yesterday I went to Wards and almost nobody was in the store so it was nice to take my time looking at everything and buying foods for juicing and cooking. I now have so many beautiful foods in the fridge! Dandelion greens, pomegranate, papaya, ginger, bok choy, beet tops, beets, carrrots, celery, parsley, apples, pears, zuchinni, daikon radish and turnips, plus red lettuce, mustard greens and broccoli in the garden.
I bought millet, amaranth, wild rice and slivered almonds in the bulk section to support the alkalinizing diet. When I got home, I reorganized all my food on my shelf and gave a bagful to St. Frances house. My grains and nuts are now neatly stored in glass jars, and I ground up my flax seeds so they can be added to foods easily. I also ground up my coffee and put that jar in the freezer to be used on occasion, not every day. I am no longer a 'coffee-drinker!'
I am feeling so caring and mindful towards my viand today.
