June 23 & 24

Yesterday (June 23) I ate whatever emptied out the fridge before my trip.  

Brekky was a smoothie.  I used grapes instead of pomegranate juice because I didn't want to open up a new bottle.  I eventually want to wean myself off the juice because I don't want to buy all those glass bottles.  Plus fruit is healthier than juice.  I have one bottle left.  I was also trying to pare down the garden so it won't get too overgrown by the time I get back.  So I made two smoothies using grapes, frozen berries, and stuff from the garden:  mostly collard greens, some swiss chard and just a bit of kale (I love kale but not in smoothies).   I froze one and it is in my suitcase.  If all goes well, I'll drink that when I arrive in Miami at 5 pm.   

Then I got busy with work and had a late lunch which was leftover eggplant dish, and berry salad (strawberries, raspberries, banana).    I made housemate 8 smoothie servings (!), and of course sampled them.  ate my usual carrots and peas as snacks.

Dinner was lots of asparagus topped with ground sunflower and hemp seeds, and some lemon juice.   I also made a salad with lettuce (some from the garden--really good), avocado, apple, ground seeds (pumpkin & sunflower), and D'angou pear vinegar.  nibbled on frozen peas as usual.  

I was pretty full after all this.  I must have eaten a lot of seeds.  

Today I'm traveling and just eating an apple and some carrots--not that hungry anyway.  When I arrive in Miami, I'll have the smoothie hopefully.  then I have more soup in my suitcase if I'm still hungry.
