Food and Exercise Log 1-2-19

Happy New Year Everyone!!! :) :) :)

Sleep: 
awake at 7:45am, up at 8:30am
to sleep for night last night at: 11:30pm

Food:
breakfast: 6 (or 7?) organic California Page mandarins
lunch: 9 Fuyu persimmons (3 lbs)
dinner: TBD -- probably a mandarin or two, followed by salad of: head of green cabbage cut into ribbons with dressing of tahini, lemon, carrot juice, freeze dried kale powder ... and maybe some partially dehydrated summer squash slices on the side or with the dressing as dip (possibly dipping "baby" carrots too) ... and maybe some carrot juice afterward

I've been eating persimmons pretty much every day for a while now. They are SO delicious, and they store really well here, so I can get over a month's worth at a time, which I absolutely love! They hold up well without refrigeration and are a terrific staple or back-up because they're the kind that you can eat whether they are hard or soft. I got a great deal on them at CostCo in California when Darrel and I were there last.

I've been eating all raw, actually since my last post, coincidentally. LOL

Exercise:
20+ mins on rebounder/mini-trampoline before breakfast
incline pushups and squats before lunch
rest of day TBD -- probably some exercises with resistance band before dinner, and some stretching before bed

I'm going light on the exercise for a bit right now, so none of this is high intensity today.

The Rest:
Well.. lots to catch up on. I'm currently in the boondocks of a remote area in Arizona--Surprise! I actually have a video from several months ago with an update that I never published for some reason. I think it's because I mentioned a page and links for giving gifts that I never made.

ANYway... maybe I'll finish the gift page and actually post that soon. In the meantime, I'll post here every once in a while. I'm actively trying to finish the products I've mentioned I'm doing from time to time... so *fingers crossed* I will be able to actually sort all the content into things that actually make sense together, lol. My main trouble is scope creep with these things, followed by a realization that it's just too long, then overwhelm with editing it down and figuring out how to break things up into different items. So it goes...

It feels different this time. I think I'll actually get something released soon... and, of course, I'll let you know as soon as it's ready! :) :)

Also, I just may get to the rebuild of this site soon too... exciting times! :)

Aloha!

Cabbage Wrapped Salad n Sprouts (Recipe)

Image
Wraps are simple and fun, especially when you dip them. Tightly wrap the contents to avoid losing it out the ends. Alternately, you can have use all of the sauce on the sprouts for a wet wrap. Wet wraps benefit from folding over the bottom to avoid leakage and is easiest with the version described without the wrap leaf's rib removed. You don't need to have the same cabbage or sprouts I grew. You can substitute any other large leafed greens for the cabbage and other sprouts or salad for my sprouts. Also, feel free to use your own sauce instead. Ingredients:    Wrap: Cabbage (or other large green for wrap)    Filling: Sprouts: Broccoli Sprouts (or other sprouts) Fenugreek Sprouts (optional) Salad Greens Sorrel (to taste) Lettuce and other salad greens (as desired and available) Tomato, sliced in strips (enough to run length of wrap when layed end to end, Roma are good for this) Optional: Avocado, sliced in strips (optional in wrap to lay in a str

Joys of Growing Your Own Food (Some of them, at least)

Image
This was originally sent to my email list. Click here if you want to sign up.   I love plants! I love growing them and eating them..and a whole lot more. One of the top reasons I love growing my own food is being able to grow things I want to eat, and especially things I wouldn't be able to have access to otherwise. Cabbage leaves harvested from my garden yesterday. Case in point: the cabbage leaves I harvested yesterday. Believe it or not: these two leaves are the smaller leaves from a plant I have basically neglected for a while! (It is on an automatic drip watering system). They are an open leaved variety that is simply beautiful to me, grows well where I am, rarely gets spicy hot (if ever), is bolt resistant (so does not go to seed fast and I can keep harvesting for longer), and is great for wrappers in wraps (or chopped in ways cabbage is often used). Another example: the top pic here is "Janie" created by arranging "Armenian" Cucu

Holiday Recipe Video: My Take on Fig Cake (Pan de Higo)

Image
My take on a recipe traditionally served at Christmas is an easy, simple, and quick healthy low-fat raw vegan gluten-free holiday recipe which also follows the food combining principles of Natural Hygiene and 80/10/10.  I make half of the recipe without machines, and the other half with a food processor. Then I compare and combine them, do a little ambiance for it, and sample it.  Nutrition Facts are included as well. Enjoy! :)
