dh got sick and I made a smoothie!

Rate this Entry
Noooo - dh did not get sick from drinking my smoothie - he's on our land working so I drank the smoothie ALL BY MYSELF thank you !!!

okay - it wasn't green... YET... give me time there Wizard'ess Gwena... i'm workin on it! BUT - this blender WILL not make veggie smoothies I'm sure of it -- in fact I think it would kill this blender !!

And since it's not mine - i must make sure to return it in the same 'arthritic condition' as when i got it!! lol... needless to say - It's vErY slOw! Aside from casting a spell over it to work, dancing a 'go ~ blender ~ go' dance around it while it's slooowly whines away... throwing holy water on as it's running to dispel the blender demons and keep the smoke down... yea... it worked fine...

My smoothie consisted of fresh squeezed OJ, a handful of strawberries, a dollop of honey and one applebanana! OMG!! it was sooo good... the blender didn't quite break apart all the banana... so there were a few chunks in there - but they were tasty so it was all good.

So if it can't blend a BANANA... HELLO -- can you imagine... a GREEN SMOOTHIE - WITH CHUNKS.... omg...nooooo..

now the story about dh getting sick... hmmm hehehee... oh that is sooo not nice to laugh... .... heheheeee ... ... HEHEHHEEEEEE!!!


well... this actually happed a few nights ago - I just keep forgetting to tell you guyz about it...

anway -- dh was fixing meat for the dogs for dinner - and it was late... about 9:30pm. and he decided that he was going to have a hamburger with them... I DIDN'T SAY A WORD... cuz remember the LAST time he went all wako on me cuz I said something??? okay - I learned my lesson - so I just kept quiet...
you would have been proud - i didn't even glance his way while he was eating it -- just kept doin my thing ..... and let him eat stupid in peace.... ;)

that night - he has bad dreams, his tummy hurts, his head hurts, his legs ache, he can't sleep....

'WHY oh WHY' he keeps asking me - moaning all night... (talk about pity parties girls.... that man puts us ALL to shame!!).... ;) .... so - I offer to rub his head.... HEY -- THE HEAD ON TOP OF HIS SHOULDERS!! my goodness you rawbies are rowdy!! ;)

and I offer to rub his legs... i offer to rub his tummy.... he just Moaned and Groaned and tossed and turned allll night....

the next day - he's feeling a little better - and goes off to work.

that night... (some people do not learn lessons so easy do they...?) again... it's late... and dh wants to start making BEEF STEW??? ??? (I'm thinkin to myself - okay - stew beef - now that's pretty tough meat and it has to cook a looong time b4 it's tender... oookayy.....)

by the time its done - it's 10:30... me ?? I'm in bed like a good little Rawbie... ;) .... He apparently ate quite a huge ... HUGE bowl. soooo nOt good...

again with the moaning -- again with the groaning... only this time - he adds... 'it feels like i'm poisoned... i don't get it???'

so - if you ask me -- I'LL TELL YA...

SO in my best Xena voice I said....
'BECAUSE YOU ARE POISONED.... THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN TRYING TO TELL YOU -- THE MEAT IS POISON TO YOUR SYSTEM...'

and what do I get back .... (now you have to say this with a whiney voice...)
"but whyyy didn't youu telll meeee??? i feeel soooo siickkk...." oh my dear little dh....

He felt poisoned for at least 2 days after that and hasn't had any meat since that night! ;) Guess that's ONE way to quit eating meat! lol!!

Okay RAWBies - I'm headed off to our land - we're gunna spend the night and watch the moon again! See you tomorrow! btw- if I don't check in tomorrow - it's because we spent the night on the land again and there is no electricity out there... so RAWK ON it's day 2 of a RAWmacious RAWsome June!!
hugs! ;)

    I'm sure I'll never touch meat again!!! Ohhhhhhhhhh... I didn't know it could make you so sick after not eating it for a while!!! Glad I've never decided to have any since going raw. Hate to feel so miserable. I hope he's learned his lesson and doesn't have anymore problems. Tell him I'm sorry to hear of his woes. Have fun moon watching tonight!

    oohh hahahahaha I have a blender like that!!! Yes! a "go blender go" dance. MUST try that! Chunky smoothie? EWWW gag! Saving for a bosch stainless steel mixer and it comes with a blender attachment. Not a vitamix, but still perty dern good. Hopefully end of July. I do have an awesome proofing oven that goes from like 75 - 200 degrees and works great if I want to dehydrate things. Same size as regular oven! Very cool.

    silly husband.They never listen,do they? Family is like..that is sooo weird. then, when they don't feel good...Do you have a tea bag for that? (smacks them upside the head) My eldest son drank raw cacao today cuz he has a cough. theobromine is s'pose to be just as effective as codeine as cough suppressor. I love natural remedies. Very cool. And my supplements keep disappearing. ;) Traumatize me but sneak my things. Very funny. Guess I am rubbing off on them after all!

    Kids actually send me to the natural herb shop to get teas and such for them now. BTW, the mastic gum is working GREAT for Connor's reflux if anyone is interested. Enjoy your night by the ocean watching the moon. Wish we were there with you in our necklace!

    My dh is a hardcore carnivore, but he feels sick/has indigestion every time he eats meat. Does that stop him? NOOOOOO.... I keep trying to tell him that his reflux problem is meat, but he won't listen to me... He'd rather take medication for gastrointestinal problems than change his diet...

    I wish my dh got sick after eating meat. I had to cook him a steak tonight.He was "tired" of salad. I got tired of hearing him saying "mmmmm, yum..oh this is sooo good"..lol I hate that I was wishing he'd get sick, BUT......

    Good and Bad that your sweetie got sick eating meat, we all have to learn in our own way. I know that I can be stubbon at times, as can my sweetie Vx, but hey, that is what makes us strong...? Anyhoo, Rawkn Xena Starfire will help dh on his road to clean eating, and I can not think of a better travelling companion . BTW, you too look Rawknsome together!

    Ha ha, poor elderly blender. I feel your pain! I need to get something that can do a number on greens. Of course, I also need to be rich enough to buy a good one! In time, in time. I'm impatient though, I want it now!

    hubby gets the SAME way over here too!! I havent eaten beef in years, and since we went to China he hasnt either. He had some steak at a friends yesterday, and was in the bathroom for a VERY LONG TIME this morning. They have learned their lessons, havent they?
