St. Patrick's Day is an enchanted time – a day to begin transforming winter's dreams into summer's magic.-- Adrienne Cook

Juices in order of consumption
Shot of hemp oil
1 quart orange, celery, spinach


1 quart romaine, celery, pineapple


1 quart romaine, tomato, garlic, celery


1 quart celery, orange, apple


4 quarts again. I am a rock star. I think looking at all those raw food recipes and pictures is making my stomach growl so I get hungry. Whatever works!
I have been a naughty girl in regard to the hemp oil. I was having such a hard time getting it in because it makes me sick to drink it with my juice. I tried drinking it between juices but I didn't know how long it took to get through my system and a few times it upset my stomach when I drank my juice too soon. So I just wasn't drinking it.

Today I decided to have it in the morning after my lemon water and before my first juice and it seemed to work out pretty good. Of course I forgot to take the MSM. :o)

Today 149.5

Woo hoo! I dropped below the 150 mark. That feels good.

Exercise
None - I thought my yoga class was in the evening but it was at 8:30am. I had to get on the phone to get an appointment for my son so I couldn't make it. Never quite got around to doing anything else.

Physically
Another wonderful day on the physical front. Feeling good, feeling good. The body seems happy. Here at 8:00 it is a bit tired but still feels good

Ramblings
Well, my sweet Cody broke his finger and got his cast today. He has to wear it for 3 weeks. He was so disappointed. You should have seen the face he was making when I tried to snap this picture. I had to make him laugh to get a decent one.



His baseball season is in a precarious position. He was given a starting position as a pitcher and a leadership roll on the team. He was thrilled and excited about it. I don't know what will happen when he is able to go back. I hope he still has a spot.



So it seems that today is the perfect day to be on a juice feast. I mean, come on, green juice all day. Woo hoo. It beats the days of green beer right? I do kind of miss corned beef and cabbage with carrots, potatoes and Irish soda bread. Oooh yum.




Here is a picture of the Chicago River that the dye green every year for St. Patty's Day. It's so weird isn't it? It makes for a pretty cool picture though. I have never actually gone into the city on that day. It is usually too cold for me. Today it actually snowed again!



Today I have reached day 50! Day 50 and St. Patty's day all in one. How awesome. Only 42 more days to go. Ha ha, when I say it like that it seems horrible. One day at a time right? I know the picture of 50 is odd for a juice feasting blog but I am in a huge sporting family so it's just right for me.



My oldest son has his first volleyball game tomorrow so that is pretty exciting. At least it is inside and I will be toasty warm.



I am thinking of taking a nice relaxing bath tonight. I wonder if I will get a chance. Good night all.
