all dolled up and nowhere to go
looks like: denim and pleather
tastes like: jaffa cake
smells like: my conditioner
feels like: a little restless, but mostly content.
sounds like:

Blend baby blend ;)
Smoothie deliciousness
~INGREDIENTS~
2 teaspoons of chia seeds
watermelon
kiwi fruit
mixed berries
1 cup of apple, blueberry & rosehip tea, chilled
~METHOD~
get your fruit ninja on with a sharp knife, a chopping board and the fruit.
remember kids, safety first. you don't want a skin and blood smoothie. its supposed to be vegan.
throw everything in the blender in whatever order you please. i did: chia seeds first, then fruit, and tea last.
BLEND!!!
serve. with a straw. perfection.

easing the queasy
cheat on all your diets, try to keep it quiet, running forwards getting nowhere, hanging on by a prayer, whisper my name, scream yours loud, fly your flag, don't blow your whistle, we're overachievers but we can't be too proud, oh no it's really not allowed, you can keep your success but don't speak it aloud.
write out your secrets and lock them in a drawer, smoke away your days, work too much and still we're poor, we plan trips we'll never take, and hearts and promises we only break, is this how you feel?

Detoxing...
Day three of the detox... halfway there! woah living on a prayer...
okay no more cheese. for now anyway
so i started this detox that a friend told me about, which basically involves cutting out all sugar, processed foods, animal products...basically everything good haha
one of the most difficult things for me so far has been cutting out coffee and chai lattes, as i am a caffeine addict. and i make coffee for a living. mornings have been the most painful, as my hunger pangs and snack cravings tend to hit the hardest around 11am, but i am proud to say that i have been able to fight through them, with willpower i didn't know i had.
as for the clean eating, i could probably be doing better, but it's not a total disaster. the challenge here isn't really the food, because i am quite the fan of fruits and veggies and pretty open to trying things like chia seeds. it's more getting the motivation to actually prepare and cook things that fit into the detox that has been the difficult part. that and, trying to make myself drink four cups of green tea each day. that definitely did not happen yesterday.
this post isn't really meant to be interesting, i suppose i just need to be held accountable somewhere.
two days left! here's hoping i don't crack.
