Alfalfa!

We have *ahem* an abundance of alfalfa growing in the yard, much of which is spouting up all in between the slabs of paving in our patio, much to my consternation. So, to make lemonade...

*I've been away from here for so long, and finally decided to make RFT a bigger priority, since it supplements my ideal lifestyle - and I find this thread still alive and kicking! This makes me very...

Aw, that's too bad! Did he enjoy the lemon, though, or was it totally undrinkable? Too... lemony?

And what do you use to juice your wheatgrass and sprouts? My vitamix is my juicing mainstay right...

After having an almost week-long hiatus (just finished working 12 days in a row and simply didn't have the initiative to juice rather than throw together quick smoothies), I made a juice with the...

Today I've borrowed Walnutty's idea and made tomato juice! Well, actually, it's technically a smoothie, as I decided not to strain it, since it's so good as is! And what a pretty colour!

Just straight tomato? Mmm, I have a flat of tomatoes right now, I should do that! Another boyfriend-friendly flavour, too! (Though maybe I can squeeze some broccoli in there, too!)

I don't have experience with that juicer, sorry, nor much experience with juicers at all, as I've been using my vitamix for juicing for quite a while now. [Thinking about getting a more...

Slightly off topic, but I've never understood the penchant for ice in drinks! I've never liked it - too cold! Brr! Slightly cooler than room temperature is my ideal. My boyfriend is an ice fiend,...

Today it's:

-one cucumber
-5 apples
-6 broccoli stems

Mmm, very light and tasty! Must experiment more with different broccoli combinations, too, since I have a never-ending supply! And... the...

I like how you put this! Basically, for most of this, this would mean 'room temperature', give or take, considering factors like air conditioning and heating.

As to the original question: I do...

Ooh, that's another topic that burns me up: anti-bacterial everything. Where did humans get this stupid idea? Ideal health is not spent in a clinically sterile environment - ideal health is when the...

I just don't get this whole B-12 thing. Vegans are supposed to be universally woefully deficient in it, which means that non-vegans are fine, which means that we are supposed to eat animal-related...

Wow, this sounds delicious! I'll have to try it out - and one of my fave combinations is apple-lime! :)

I've been trying, lately, to harvest as much of the weeds growing in my yard as possible, using them in smoothies and juicing, mostly. A few days ago I pulled a lot of small lambsquarters and washed...

Mmm... watermelon... haven't had any yet this year! But I picked up the biggest casaba melon I've ever seen - it's got to be about 10 lbs! Well, I'll find out soon when I smoothie-ize it. I'll weigh...

I absolutely agree with you about the edible weeds! I have been harvesting more than I can even use, but I'm happy thinking about the awesome nutrition I'm getting from it all. Wish there was some...

What grocery stores do makes me sad. Why do we need to have 'perfect' produce? People are conditioned to accept only a limited standard when it comes to food, which is one reason mass-produced...

Wow, that sounds very green! How do you like the taste of it? I love the idea of using wild greens - I feel they're more nutritionally dense.



Today I had what has been my 'usual' lately -...

I thought it would be fun (and inspirational!) for us to make posts about what juice we've made each day. I like to hear what other people are throwing in the ol' juicer, and get ideas for my own...

Thought I'd update: today I was pulling weeds from the garden (they've been rampant due to the unusual amount of rain we've been getting) and decided to use them in my green smoothie. The weeds were...

Hmm, never tried that much celery, and mostly stand-alone, too! I usually mix it with equal parts cucumber and tomato, along with a handful of greens, to make a 'green caesar'. What does your juice...

It's so exciting when we can get good food for really cheap, isn't it? Like, there's a sale at the shoe store? Meh. Half-price bananas? Aww yeah!

And tonight I managed to collect some tomato and...

I agree, actually, with the noise thing - one can control the release of the wind to give it silent exit, rather than pushing it out as a parp (for some reason, 'parp' makes me giggly!), something...

Interesting points, MysticTree!
I'll comment that I think some farting is fine, as in simply letting out excess air from the digestive tract. (Hmm, but why excess air in the digestive tract?) There...

I would love to do this! It's something I've been toying with for a while - starting a smoothie business, with juicing, of course. Thanks for giving me something to think about while I shuffle off to...
