I worked from home today which I always enjoy as it saves me 3 hours commuting time. Mind you, on the hottest day of the year so far, there are advantages to an air conditioned office but the huge disadvantage of commuting in this heat completely outweigh that.
After a late night last night I was tired this morning so had a smoothie full of goodies; banana, blackcurrants, coconut water, tahini, chia seeds, spirulina and a blend of protein powders and other superfoods.
Very acceptable.
Check out these awesome French beans. I think they are worthy of a competition as they are long and nearly straight. They taste really good too.
Green and purple, all from the garden.
I regretted cooking lunch and wished I was just preparing a salad as it was so hot but after missing dinner last night and doing a dog walk before lunch I was really hungry so I enjoyed this.
Today was hot, hot, hot. I made myself shut down the computer at 5:30, the little fella and I hopped in the car and headed off to the beach.
We arrived just after 6pm and I thought there would be more people there as it was still very warm.
We both enjoyed a swim which was very refreshing. We were both bitten though and on the way out of the water I saw a jellyfish so wonder if that was what stung us.
Someone enjoyed that!
We sat and enjoyed a drink and a snack before heading home.
Falafels, humous, boiled potatoes and a mixed salad for dinner.
A very healthy day with lots of nutritious food and plenty of exercise. Lots of work too so a well rounded day.
Sounds like a wonderfully, productive day. 🙂
I am sorry to read you both were stung/bitten. My Son was bitten by a jellyfish in Jamaica when Bob and I got remarried. Uric acid was the only thing that relieved the pain. Go figure. It worked. I certainly hope you didn’t because he wasn’t feeling well for about a week after that. Other than this blip, you had an awesomely nutritious day of eating. Your body is loving you!
I have heard about the cure from a jellyfish bite 🙂 Ours were not at all serious so we recovered quickly. My body is loving the nutritious food I have been eating lately and the walking I have been doing which is good. i want to keep it going.
Then please do. Having your Sister to inspire you always helps too.
