I slaved in the kitchen yesterday…and I can tell you that it won’t be happening again anytime soon!
There are two reasons:
1. Joe got home and was ill, and I had eaten way too many kale chips out of the dehydrator all day…so we both took two bites of dinner and stopped (even though the food was awesome). And neither of us like leftovers.
2. I’m planing my detox, which will not be called a Detox because I don’t like that word, and I’m still working on the details. Following one plan doesn’t work for me in general—so I’m combining my own expertise with what I’ve read from people like Dr. Hyman, Dr. Junger, Kris Carr, Natalia Rose, etc. Then I’m putting it into a plan that fits my lifestyle and what I will actually do/eat. I know it doesn’t involve a lot of elaborate meals and recipes. The start date is Monday, Feb 14th (Happy Valentine’s Day to me!), and this week is the ease-into-it-week.
So I spent half the day in the kitchen (making all that stuff except the soup)…and then we didn’t eat any of it. I wasn’t upset about that, but it sure doesn’t make me want to do it again anytime soon! I’m much better making one thing and putting it with a salad. …Or letting Joe do what he wants and then I just eat some of that 🙂
I also prefer to take food pictures during the day when there is real light coming in the windows.
It was, however, a great weekend for me. I got tons of work done and read a lot too. I was rested, so I easily got into my Monday morning grading-papers-groove. In a few minutes I’m heading to teach my nutrition class (which is the only work I have to do outside the comfort of my pj’s today), and I’m going to pose my Great Idea to them. Can’t wait to tell people about it!
Hope you have a great Monday!
Do you enjoy spending time in the kitchen? When things don’t work, do you get frustrated? I’m more likely to laugh and move on (and clean up the mess).
Have you read Crazy Sexy Diet? I liked it a lot, although I didn’t learn anything new–but it still made me feel motivated.
