Sippy Sunday Sake

I got out of bed at 10:00 today!  Granted, I was lying in bed reading, but still.  That means my morning green smoothie happened at about 11:00 a.m.


Before heading out on a ski I fixed up some curry sauce from Delightfully Raw (using macadamia nuts instead of cashews).  I dumped a little sauce over kelp noodles and assorted chopped veggies, then put the whole mess in the D.  When we arrived home starving, a deliciously warm lunch was awaiting us. 


(I think I let my sunflower sprouts go to long; however I've read mixed reviews about if this is okay or not.  I'm still eating them, long tail and all.)

It seems that I've started a wee Sippy Sunday Sake tradition.  I've mentioned how I stopped drinking wine Mon.-Fri.  However, on Saturday and/or Sunday I usually imbibe in a bevvie.  Today I made: 

Blueberry Slushies
1 16 oz bag frozen blueberries 
juice of one lemon
1 cup sake
1/4 cup agave
dash of vanilla
dash of salt

Blend above ingredients until slushie.  Share with three other people (or not). 



Dinner tonight, as usual, is a giant salad (head of romaine, sprouts, sauerkraut, tomatoes, carrots, mushrooms, hemp dressing from Delightfully Raw). 


TH is having raw Hawaiian style pizza with a smaller salad.




Question:  How was your Sunday?

  3. That sake sounds so good. It's awesome that you get out and ski so much. Looks like your sunflower sprouts are well on the way to being sunflower greens--I like them even better that way: have you tried doing those?

    Wonderful post. So cool that you used the macs instead of the cashews!! I bet it was better tasting that way too.

    Thanks for your comments, Elizabeth! Yes, I do occasionally ferment my own sauerkraut, but I actually had some Bubbie's to use the other night. I love kraut. Hope yours is delicious. :)
