A Green Smoothie Day

Today was a green smoothie day! I had one for breakfast and one for dinner. It always makes me feel good to eat good. Sometimes I think I am really hungry and that what really sounds good is a slice of pizza or an egg sandwich, but then I drink my smoothie and find myself fully satisfied. There are times when I make a deal with myself that I can eat whatever I think I am craving if, and only if, I drink my green smoothie first and find that I am still craving it. It always works.

The first was a spinach, mango, banana, orange. The second was kale, young coconut water and meat, orange and banana. I had a salad with dried cranberries, blueberries, figs, and pistachios on it. I realize I haven't been writing a lot about what I have been eating lately. I guess it is because I am getting so used to eating this way, that I don't think of it as being something different anymore. I did cook for the kids and Wayne today. They had roasted red potatoes with rosemary and garlic, black beans, and sugar snap beans. Oh, and I have been meaning to write about the pizza crusts that I FINALLY got around to making -- they turned out great! I have eaten part of one, but tomorrow night I m making homemade pizzas with them. Emma and Wayne liked it, and Jake thought it was okay. I a eager to try the whole pizza.
