Don't answer that!
Maybe the difference is when I'm juice fasting I hold back so no one thinks it's the fast. And maybe I spend too much time listening to the voices in my head.
Just a thought.
I made extra juice last night and bottled it. It made this morning returning to work in the office much easier. Let's face it, cleaning the juicer properly can be a pain in the butt. And when I make juice I know it's going to take me 30 minutes from cutting to juicing to cleaning to finally drinking. When I'm juicing this much, the juicer is either in use or on the drainboard. It is never sitting neatly assembled on my counter waiting for me to use it. My only good habit it to clean the juicer immediately before I even have a sip. I prefer a masticating juicer. It's great for greens, and I stand a slightly better chance of not painting my walls when I use it. (I finally painted over that beet juice incident from last year.) But I am starting to understand why people will pay so much to have their juice made for them.
Companies have gotten on the juice cleanse bandwagon and charge big money to deliver ready made juices to your home or office. A 3-day BluePrint Cleanse will cost more than buying a good juicer. Sure, they've done their research and put together the perfect combination of juices for you, and all you have to do is drink. If you only do 3 days every so often, then maybe it makes sense. It just seems to be as genius a business proposition as bottling water. Everyone buys bottled water. Naked juices can run $4-$5 each at the deli, so why wouldn't a plan for a few days run a couple of hundred dollars?
Seriously?
Because I have a solid reliable juicer, I can juice for a few dollars a day. I may shop more often, but I spend less than typical meals. Juicers can be expensive -- or you can use credit card points as I did when I bought my mother's -- but they're deifintely a sound investment. If worse comes to worst, you'll at least have a much easier time making lime juice for margaritas. So Kale Cosmos aren't going to be catching on anytime soon. Health inspired cocktails have been climbing the charts for years.
I'm having a hard time focusing, aren't I?
I thought so too.
I think it's time to make more juice!
