i just realized that the coconut oil i've been using for the past few days and smoothies and ice kreams listed an expiration date of september which might explain why it tasted weird to me. ugh. i guess it's okay (as long as it doesn't make me sick) because the artisana is not right for me - sort of . . i don't know. the mouth feel was wrong for me. any recommendations ?

Tough day today as I want warm things as winter sets in...so this am I gently heated some almond milk and added bananas and cranberries for breakfast. I really liked it!!
Lunch is a salad - just greens and clementines and I think I'll do warm water with honey to get that warm comfort thing going!
Appifanie - don't know what to say about the coconut oil. I switched to coconut butter a while back as I prefer the taste. Maybe try a few days without it or invest in a new jar of the same brand and see if it makes a difference?
PS - LOVE Alissa's Almost Tuna. It's got a great tang :) I also love Sunny Pate - as a matter of fact, maybe I'll make some for the weekend!

thx shine! i think my artisana actually was coconut butter but since I don't know this I definitely have stuff to look into :)
i went to help at my kiddo's school and was there 3 hours and hungry! i came back and ate the tuna with celery. there's an orange/banana vitamix juice in my future. the husband is getting chinese food tonight which is super easy for me to say no to so i'll figure out dinner later."While we ourselves are the living graves of murdered beasts, how can we expect any ideal conditions on this earth?" - George Bernard Shaw

i made 1/2 the apple pie recipe and divided that between two tiny springforms and I froze them. when refrigerated it made kind of a soup which was too moist for me.
collard wrap the other night

okay it isn't chinese, it's something else and it smells good but i imagine that it will make my throat scratchy and make me sneezy and my tummy ache and my head hurt.

I had a few bites of something cooked (vegan and gluten free) and it was a total let down and made me feel flushed and like there was a rock in my tummy. Helpful!

breakfast - 3 oranges, 2 bananas, ice all blended up in the vitamix for a yummy smoothie/juice (I call them smooce). i gave some to my kiddo (she's 6) b/c she seems to have a cold. she's been sick a bunch since starting school this year.

Still eating lots of raw but not 100%. Focussing on the raw, I just ate lots of clementines and a persimmon :)

lunch wanted to be a chickpea salad wrap but instead I raw'ed it and made it romaine leaves with avocado, shredded carrots, green peppers, and radishes with a side of green juice (collards, lemon, ginger, apple)
