Oh, Yeah! Almost There!

Remember in the beginning when I couldn't face another day? When I couldn't talk about how far I'd gone or how much longer I had to go? Well . . . HA! I'm 9/10 done! I've got 36 days in the can! I'm on the home stretch. I'm rounding third! Oh, yeah, baby!

That being said, the guys in my office went out for burgers and fries for lunch and brought everything back. I swear I almost inhaled a French Fry through my nose! I've started contemplating my first meal. I am strong enough to look at menus now without drooling. I am going to remain Vegan for sure. And I'm going to continue juicing in the mornings definitely. I may have juice for 2/3 of my consumption when I cross over just not to put my system into shock. I'd love to say that I'm going to run the border between raw/living food and macrobiotic. At the very least, during the summer, I think it will be much easier to eat that way while taking advantage of locally grown fruits and veggies. (I hope the corn is better than last year!)

As my mother plans a large Easter Dinner, I've been set to bake a Ricotta Pie. I used to love, love, love ricotta pie. I'll be baking, but I won't be biting. What will I be having??? Salad, lots of veggies -- zucchini, eggplant, brussel sprouts, green beans, carrots and mushooms, and lentil soup. You have no idea how absolutely fabulous that all sounds after 36 days without chewing. If I'm feeling really wild, I might bake a sweet potato for dessert. (They taste like pie without making pie!)

Who needs chocolate Easter bunnies!?!
