It is a new year and what a way to begin. I waited in angst ALL day to get home and try out my new juicer. I purchased a Hamilton Beach Big Mouth Juicer. I had some difficulties before getting home – I felt like I was in an episode of Pippi Longstocking. The bus driver left me standing at the corner when I was CLEARLY waving the driver down to board the bus. I threw my monopod to the ground in anger and I memorized the bus number because Dallas Area Rapid Transit was going to hear from me – the angry transit rider.
I stood in disgust and snapped angry photos:
I stood in disgust and snapped angry photos:
As fate would have it, I was able to board the bus with the driver who left me at the bus stop. She apologized to me the entire time I was on the bus. She “said” she felt bad for leaving me because she was in a hurry – NO EXCUSE! I accepted her apology because she said she felt bad for leaving me.
I digress. I finally get home after purchasing some “sweet” items for juicing:
1 bag of Granny Smith apples
1 container of Blueberries
1 container of Strawberries
2 packages of Carrots
3 Lemons
1 bag of Oranges
1 Pineapple
By now I am even more excited because my taste tester has arrived, my grandson Dewtybug (Jari II). My machine isn’t the quietest but it pulverized those fruit in no time flat and the juice was flowing. WooWhee!
My first recipe was one from the Hamilton Beach book called Winter Zinger:
1. 2 apples
2. 1 orange, peeled
3. ¼ cup blueberries.
Three item recipe - De-Lish-Us!
My taste tester kept coming back for more.
Adding FRESH juice 1-3 times daily to my diet (I’M NOT DIETING), continuing to eat my vegetable medley with lunch and dinner, taking the bus, riding my bike and remaining active with my grandson; I may lose more weight this year and gain the much needed energy to sustain my lifestyle.
Happy Juicing.
