Day 20 + My Dad’s Birthday!

Posted Jul 15 2009 6:42pm

Day 20 started in a bit of a rush, so I didn’t take time to prepare my warm lemon water. It was my dad’s birthday and I was getting ready to leave for a day of fun times with the family, so I quickly got busy juicing up stuff so I’d be prepared. I was dealing with pretty bad back pain and was pretty exhausted during this time so I knew I’d need plenty of juice with me for this outing so I could keep my strength up.

Breakfast

While I thought about what I’d juice up for the day, I made myself a morning juice: the last of Friday’s Amish-grown cabbage concoction and 1 1/2 scoops of Amazing Grass SuperFood powder (I needed an extra boost!).

Watermelon Juice

(This watermelon juice was made from (almost) a full zip lock bag of sliced watermelon.)

Top, left corner is the cucumber juice. Top, right corner is the apple juice. Lower, left corner is the watermelon juice. Lower, right corner is the cantaloupe juice. Each container measures 3 cups.

Snack

I drank a watermelon juice on the way to the festival (nope, I didn’t get a photo–just grabbed it and loaded my other juices into the cooler and hit the road!). :-)

I also had my daily shot (a tablespoon) of E3 Live.

At the Festival

After wandering around the festival for a while and checking out the handmade crafts, homemade foods, and heirloom seeds, etc., we decided to head for the park for a picnic.

My Picnic Juice

I decided to have an apple juice in my Amazing Grass shaker cup. And that’s good old water in the pink to-go bottle.

Beautiful Watermelon, eh?

After my watermelon juice was gone, and lots of laughing and talking, I discovered I was craving another juice, so I poured myself a cantaloupe juice before we left the park.

After we left the park, we drove around and soaked up the local scenery: Amish farms, old buildings, gentle rolling pastures…

I made sure to drink plenty of juices yesterday and today because of the back pain zapping my strength, so I drank another apple juice, watermelon juice, and cantaloupe juice during the afternoon.

Dinner

To end the day, I drank a refreshing cucumber juice. It was just what my body needed after the day’s events. My dad had a great birthday and we’re so very blessed to have him!!!

Remember folks: It’s not what you’re eating (or not eating), it’s the good company you’re keeping and the good times you’re having that make each moment special and precious! :-)

Until tomorrow… happy juicing!
