mmmm parsley is goood is the gs blending,as is rocket too...

miss gs,i bought raspberries and dill today,will make up a new blend of gs tomorrow,somthing new and different to try...will let you know what my verdict is...

oh the gs is a powerfully good, liquid gold, precious as precious can be.....

MMMM, the parsley is good! Mixed up:

Chinese broccoli - 1/2 bunch
Cos lettuce - 1/4
Parsley - big handful
2 frozen bananas (why do I never go beyond 2 frozen bananas? oh well, seems to work for me)
1 just ripe pear
Handful of frozen strawberries

It was divine!

Tomorrow morning I am mixing up a big thermos-ful, in addition to what I have for breakfast, to see me through the drive from Canberra to Melbourne. Getting the boat to Tassie tomorrow night, by which time my smoothies will have run out and I'll be suffering withdrawal symptoms  :angry: But, fortunately, my blender's coming with me and will be eagerly unpacked upon arrival in Tassie, after, of course, a quick trip to the green-grocer's for essential greens & fruit. Looking forward to a week of beautiful Tasmanian produce....

miss gs,i found the dill addition very nice indeed,it did put a different slant on the gs...will be doing that again...oh sounds like your gs tomorrow will be more than just any old thing,it should be rather tasty...a nice change is to actually juice the apples too..hey doesn't you blender pound up the little seedies from your muscatels..shame,not to worry eh..oh and i have to tell you,i really enjoyed the raspberry addition,but not as much as the blueberries...

heh heh,miss M,the thermos full of gs is really catching on eh! we could walk down the street anywhere,and if we had that thermos in hand,we would be instantly recognisable to each other,even though we have never met!

miss gs,enjoy your fresh produce shopping tom with your fabulous friend!hey,my best girlfriend,has been eating around 80-90% raw,i am so proud of her,she is proud of herself,and tells me what she's been eating at every turn..i love it...
and it all began with the humble gs...........*sigh*

Ah motherwytch - nice to meet another fan of the gentle Farmer Hoggett. 

I don't know who I had more of a crush on - the farmer, the pig or the duck.  Ferdinand was a bit of a dill, but he WAS an Indian Runner, and they are my fave duck.

I love the 'the pig and the farmer regarded each other' comment that you made to your husband.  That's beautiful.  I chuckled.

By the way - it's in another thread, but I wouldn't know where to begin to look - Jordan Almonds in the Raw.  I tried them!  And, you wanted to know what they were like dehydrated.  Well, your wish is my command.

I soaked and dehydrated the almonds, then did the mix, then dehydrated again.  They turned into beautiful candied almonds, and were scrumptious. 

I was a bit wary I have to admit - my head thought salty + sweet would be weird, but they are so lovely.  And I took a very fine photograph of them which could make it into the e-book, but I'm not sure.  So, two thumbs up for Jordan's almonds!

miss g

MM thanks for that,sounds yummy,and i must say i haven't actually tried grated turnip in my salad mix-shades of eww in my mind,when mum use to cook it in stew when i was little.yuk yuk,double ewwww....i will venture out and try it though,cos we all know how cooking just destroys the tastes and textures of raw food....

wow! your hubby is making you green smoothies,i'm in awe(even though he doesn't want to share-lol)...lucky girl...

my hubby isn't game to come near the blender,he is quite capable,but says he can't get it smooth and yummy like i do ...hmmmm,think i've been "had".....
but i don't mind really..

ripe plump pears,blueberries,seeded grapes,fresh orange or apple juice(do yourself)celery juice...pear juice is very thick too,so that could make up for the lack of bananas,strawberries with green bit intact are also delish,and fanatastic if you suffer from headaches...hope this helps...
