Food is such an enjoyable part of life and I am finding my taste buds are becoming more sensitised to distinct tastes and aromas. By eating things separately you can really savour the texture and flavour of each morsel. So today there are juicy portabello mushrooms marinating in lemon, garlic, olive oil and black pepper and they will be sensational. Did you know that lemon is extremely alkalining on the body and goes with just about everything, I have a stockpile now and cannot live without them! Oh finally cracked the packet of raw red olives from Raw Pleasure today - I was hesitant because once it's open you know what happens - they are gone, but I've been good in just having five each day (ok maybe six) and they are safely tucked away in the fridge (well if someone doesn't read this...I think I'm safe)! Putting things in obscure containers also protects immediate disposal by my roving husband who, whenever bored (not necessarily hungry) goes to the fridge, opens door (everything on the front lines cower in fear - except the vegetables) and if he doesn't recognize anything makes a declaration that there's nothing to eat and moves on. His sister tells me this is a family trait. He does burn alot of calories though and always seems to radiate heat (which is great in the winter) but has been the cause of many disagreements over air temperature control in the warmer months. This morning we took us through our paces in a gruelling 300 session which is becoming a Tuesday ritual - we had his colleague Karen join us too! Karen has been posting fitness activities that are happening each week in our circles and is active in encouraging herself and others to get fighting fit and have fun together - if you would like receive the mailout just drop me a comment! The Ipswich Hospital Foundation also has a community fitness program so check out what's available and get moving!! No excuses!
