This is the local market where I shop. I don't know what some of these roots are but I bet I could juice them and find out how they taste. I just looked them up, thank you internet, and they are potato-type root veggies. Of course, I know what a Yam is, but this is a White Yam. Interesting!! They sell "traditional" produce as well, and have a refrigerated room where all the greens, etc. are kept. This will really get a work out in the summer months when it is so hot here in South Florida.

Every day I look forward to making juice. My fridge is stocked and I have something in there that I may or may not like in juice... A sweet potato... I haven't tried it yet, but it sounds interesting. BUT there are probably a lot of carbs in a sweet potato, so it will be an addition, rather than the main feature, of the juice.

I walked into a restaurant and saw some friends I used to work with and the first thing they said was, "You look great." OK.... I know I FEEL great and I seem happier, like I am coming out of a slump...

Today's morning juice was pear/fennel/ginger/lemon/swiss chard for starters.

Dinner juice was Mean Green... Love that stuff, but today for some reason, the juices seemed flavorless. I think I might have gotten a batch of blah apples. Something is different.. BUT it still has the good stuff.

No.. I didn't take a 30 min walk today. Was busy in the morning, then went to meet friends and we ended up going for a nice long lunch. It is so great being retired and able to do whatever, whenever.

That's about it for today. Maybe I will do something interesting tomorrow... haha
