Death to Ragweed

July 12

-2 egg whites on ezekiel tortilla with the last of the goat feta crumbles, pesto, greek olive hummus, and broccoli
-grapes
-the last 3 small sliced strawberries
-herba tussin tea with local honey & lemon juice
-water



I woke up with a bad sore throat & sinus drainage. I think that means our good buddy (read: ENEMY) ragweed is out. Excuse me while I curl up and die for the next month or so. K, Thanks.

The ONE time I got allergy tested they didn't get enough of a sample to test for ragweed. I can ASSURE them, ragweed is the ONE thing I truly am verrrrry allergic to (I came back as a tiny tiny tiny bit allergic to egg whites & mold, but nothing else). It would have been nice to have confirmation of that, because I want a reason, on paper, why I feel like this about twice a year. NOT. COOL. DUDES.

-cup of smores flavored coffee



-cherries
-broccoli with pine nut hummus
-ezekiel tortilla with pizza sauce, goat cheese, oregano, & basil






-venti vanilla rooibos hot tea (for my poor throat)



No one should have to feel crappy enough in the middle of Summer humidity to need hot beverages 24-7. It's just cruel. (OK, but still delicious)

-salmon/feta/roasted red pepper pinwheel
-2 bites of flounder cooked in (vegan) butter & lemon juice
-half of a corn on the cob
-brown rice
-side salad (organic mixed greens, organic baby carrots, cherry tomatoes, cut up sweet baby peppers, broccoli, mushrooms, light ranch, black pepper)
-the rest of the tea





I. LOVE. THOSE. PINWHEELS. SO. SO. MUCH. The salad was extra good too.

I love eating like this in general. Everything is so delicious, but so natural and good for me. Yay. That's the way it should always be, huh?

-small nectarine
-super delicious mini vosges bar in Woolloomooloo (salted macadamia nuts, indonesian coconut, hemp seeds, and deep milk chocolate. mmmmm).
-bowl of fruit (organic strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, cherries)






Organic strawberries are about, oh, 10,000 times tastier than nonorganic.

Hey, it's probably just the angle, but for once my arms (well, arm) don't (doesn't...) look ginormo :-P

Bella Sandwich! :)



She positioned herself in between 2 pillows to go back to sleep, so the light wouldn't bother her eye, LOL she's so smart.
