I am really beginning to enjoy these meatless Mondays now. They're delightful, Delicious, and cause us to explore more, we've been doing it for just about a month now, and not only do we go meatless, we don't repeat any part of the meal at all. What I've really grown to love about our meatless Mondays is that they become uber healthy Mondays too. For example, last night we had a stir fry chock full of veggies, with a delicious glaze Jeremy created to pour over it. On the side we enjoyed fried-rice. Also chock full of peas, and carrots, and veggies. I know rice is pretty much anything but raw, but its still Delicious, and sometimes I just need something cooked especially since it was one of our first real meals back home from D.C.
Thaaaaats right! we spent four glorious days in D.C. our visit was a result of my younger brother's 21st birthday, which my parents quickly turned into a full-on family vacation, all sig. others invited. so we woke up at 5am last Thursday and made the trek all the way down to Alexandria VA which is by the way beautiful! the apartments remind me of the houses from the television show Madeline (french) that i used to watch. Delightful. that night we visited Old Town and had an wonderful time. My brother and I swing danced on the doc to a four piece band that was playing on the yacht next to the dock. Couldn't have asked for a better beginning to an amazing trip. The trip progressed after that, i brought my coconut water, and other healthful fruits and veggies in order to continue at least some healthy habits. Coconut water in the morning each day, my green tea extract etc.
We saw many a monument. Amazing Monuments! While I do believe our country has a lot of things within the government that should be altered and fixed, I also feel that there's something really great about belonging to these United States.
We also walked pretty close to five miles a day, which was great, the best part was that I've been working out, so I wasn't sore, which rocked my socks off.
Anyways,
I'm off to Loris after work tonight for more coconut milk, and an all raw recipe tonight!
trying out the Mango Sorbet, and I'm thinking about whipping up these great Banana Ice Cream things that my friend Brigitte thought up, I just know they'll be deeelicious!!
I think i do this weekly - blog on the day after meatless Mondays thing or on Meatless Monday, I learned recently how much farm land my boyfriend and I help save by not eating meat on Mondays...it feels great! I am also looking to be picking up a few new necessary kitchen utensils, like a larger food processor, a juicer, a second blender, a lemon press, stuff like that...
well, Until Next time Keep Keeping it healthy!
