Great soup and wonderful sorbet (and what root vegetable is that?)
The soup came out really good. It could have cooked just a little bit longer but we were both so hungry we dove in a few minutes earlier than we should have. I did cook the leftovers for an hour or so more. David said I could have the leftovers for tomorrow since there was only one serving. I'm looking forward to having it tomorrow. I don't know if what I thought was a rutabaga actually is one. What I thought were beets are rutabagas (pictured below).
I'm going to need some education on my root vegetables. lol
After dinner I made a banana, cherry and blueberry sorbet. I was so grateful that David was able to fix the blender so I could make that. I kept trying to tighten the loose part but didn't know it was a reverse thread and went the other way. Duh! Oh well at least it is now fixed and working.
David has asked that I only make one juice for him for work but to make it 32 oz instead of 16 oz. That will be easier for me to make just one for him. I'll do that in a little while. I think he had a hard time at work just drinking juice. He'll probably have a meal at work and then have his juice too. Whatever he needs to do is fine with me as long as we each have at least one juice a day.
Speaking of which, I have NOT had a juice today. I had that banana, some walnuts and raisins and the vegetable soup. I'm thinking of having a small juice when I make David's tonight. I'm still doing good though only having f/v, nuts and seeds. It's a much improved diet than I was eating. All I was having was Cherry Coke, candy and Cheetos. Not that I wouldn't like to have some junk but I know this is the way to go for now. We will be going out for Mexican food on the 15th to celebrate Gabe's birthday and Father's Day for David. We had planned this a while ago and are okay with doing a one day break. I'm a little nervous that we won't get back on track but if f/v are all we have in the house we won't really have a choice. Hopefully by then it won't be as difficult to want to eat better. It's still hard but we're doing okay.
It's almost time to juice so I'll go for now. Goodnight.
