Agenda for the day was as follows:

7:00 Shake (psyllium and bentonite clay mixed with 300ml mineral water and 100 ml Organic orange juice).

08:15 ½ a melon.

08:30 meet Lisa in the village for a walk round the snowy apple orchards :-).  This snow is making my world look very black and white!

We walked round the orchards

and over to the hop fields.  Where the dogs tried to catch snowballs.

10:00 ½ a pineapple.

13:00 Raw Vegetable Salad, made with lettuce, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, avocado, yellow pepper, green pepper, spring onion, buckwheat sprouts and fresh herbs.  I added some flax seed oil and lemon juice as a dressing.  The colour has come back in to my world.

It was so cold I did not feel like a salad.

But this was tasty.

And it was good to eat something savoury after all of yesterdays sweet fruit.

16:00 Crudités with a guacamole dip.  Unfortunately I was hibernating under a warm duvet so I missed this snack.  I went to Ramsgate after the walk to prepare the house for visitors and it was so cold in the house that I retreated to bed.  I was cold and feeling tired so I had a good sleep.

20:00 Roast Fennel salad.  Finally, some cooked food!!!!  I was so excited to be turning the oven on 🙂 .  This was very tasty and I will make this again.  You cut the fennel in to thin strips and put it in a roasting tray.  Drizzle it with olive oil and the juice and zest of an orange.  Roast at 170 ° C for 15 minutes and serve on top of the salad, which was the same as the one I had at lunch time, except instead of adding a dressing, I used the oil and orange juice from the roasting tray.

It was delicious.  And warm.

I am now catching up, thanks to iplayer,  on the last 2 episodes of Borgen, a Danish drama about the life and challenges of a female prime minister.  Our broadband at home is dreadful but in Ramsgate it is brilliant.  I can just press play and it goes from beginning to end without stoping once.

Last thing to take of the day will be some probiotics and then an early night.
