day 12

Rate this Entry
so i was in LA all day/night yesterday. looking at galleries, trying to get a feel for some of the areas. i am 'planning' on relocating up there in the next month or two from where i currently live-which is about an hour and a half south of LA.

sooo being RAW in LA will have its advantages and disadvantages i can already see that. new city, new cooked restaurants around...but ALSO many RAW places and juice bars too. more than where i am living now...so that's a plus.

anyway, yesterday was an interesting eating day.

i brought some supplies with me in the car. i have been using one of those small rectangular plastic rubbermaid containers without the lid on. all my food can sit safely in that while i drive, next to me on the seat or the floor.

i ate my green smoothie before i left.

in the car: 1 apple, couple pieces of broccoli, some assorted nuts and a bit of raw granola. and i mean grazing gently on the nuts and the granola lol.

once i was in LA i ended up stopping twice and sitting with my laptop either in the back of my car with the tinted windows and ac going. haha...then i stopped at a juice bar and got some orange carrot juice.

later i went to a coffee shop and persuaded the girl to leave out all the juice and vanilla powder thaey put in their smoothies. she made me a banana, blueberry smoothie with water :) my very FIRST "making a special request while ordering" RAW experience.

then i went to a friend's apartment to talk about rooming 'maybe' in the future and brought in my goodie box and finished off my broccoli and had a few more nuts and granola.

driving back home and going through TWO detours at 1:30 am i started getting hungry, so i ate an apple and had a few more nuts.

the end.

interesting eating day it seems.

sooooo onto today...which i haven't eaten yet, but i will make a green smoothie in awhile and keep in light today.

salad for lunch

and dinner? not sure yet.

ciao!

    It's such a great feeling making requests for raw, isn't it?
    I flew home yesterday and I saw all of the glances at my fresh bowl of strawberries as everyone had to choose chips or biscotti. I smiled so wide.
    It feels so good to be raw!
