Lunch: was out and about, brought a large bowl of leftover cabbage salad. and a carrot and an apple.
Late dinner: stopped at the grocery store on the way home, threw a bunch of delicious produce on a plate, and ate a huge bowl of lentil soup (described in yesterday's post). I ate too much. Anyway, the produce meal was really good. It's so easy to get full in the summer on fresh produce. I started with a large carrot. I really love raw fresh organic carrots. They are sweet. Then I had some brazil nuts (I just got one portion at the store so I wouldn't overeat them), some cherries, blackberries, raw spinach, sweet snap peas (local and delicious!) and watermelon. and a small orange for dessert. I would have been fine stopping here, but no, I had to taste the soup. That soup is so sweet I can't stop eating it. So I got really full. overfull. I think I'll avoid that really sweet carrot-based soup for a while. Plus I'm not a big fan of juicing and then throwing out all that pulp, even if it's going into the compost pile.
