New Toy!

My sister bought me a full-day class through Brookline Adult Community Education called "Mindfulness: A Retreat." It was cancelled and rescheduled and the second time the instructor didn't show up. So she got her money back and I just bought myself a kick-ass Christmas-in-April present.



Why haven't I ever owned a food processor before? I've had blenders in apartments in the past, but I've never owned one. Why? What the hell is the matter with me?

I just made a carrot, celery, pear, apple, mint, ginger, pear juice smoothie and it was amazing. I've been very bad lately about getting enough fruits and veggies. It is hard when I'm out 4-5 nights a week at work events or board meetings or whatever else I'm doing. And lunch, well, I just get lazy and try to claim that the lettuce/tomato/onion on my turkey sub will suffice. So, here's to a new leaf. To going back to my days of eating plenty of what's good for me. And this time, I get to have fun doing it!
