Juicing

Over a month ago Ben surprised me with the purchase of a juicer. For those of you who know me, you know I really DO NOT like vegetables. I will eat a few of them (carrots, corn, and green beans) but I do not enjoy doing it and don't eat them nearly as often as I should. So, Ben decided to get a juicer so we can mix them up a little bit with fruit. Well, it came in the mail about a week ago and we have been able to try a few recipes. The first one we tried was mango, kiwi, and carrots. It was delicious. Next we juiced some oranges for breakfast. That was really good, too. It was kind of thick which I liked but Sara had a hard time with. We then tried a strawberrie, apples, and carrots recipe. That was also really good. So, I liked the first three recipes. The fourth one we tried was carrots and celery. It actually wasn't that bad but still not something I liked so we mixed an apple in with it and it made it much better.

I guess even juiced I will have a hard time with vegetables unless their mixed with some type of fruit. But even then I will hopefully be able to get more vegetables in my diet.

Fresh orange juice - YUMMMMMM!!!

Hey G! You look beautiful pregnant again! Congratulations. Yeah for the juicer. You will have to let us know in a few months if you still like it. We get so much fruit here that I have wanted to get one. Your kids are getting so big. We got a mini-van too! They are so nice. I love mine!
