Day 63: Rest

I really do love rest days.  I love that today I'm not on worship team at church plus all my kids are gone plus no P90X combined meant I got to sleep waaaaaaay in.  I made it to 6:30.  Ha! 

Yesterday we got our farm share and we also got our first Bountiful Basket.  Google it if you want more info.  It's really a cool deal, and for our $15, we got a butt load of produce.  Last night Peter and I had a grilled veggie feast for dinner.  We did mushrooms, onions, broccoli, eggplant and fava beans.  I made a delicious olive oil/balsamic vinegar mixutre we spread on all of it, and man, oh, man you couldn't tell me that eating ridiculously healthy isn't also ridiculously delicious. 

Then I spent the morning prepping an awesome looking mango salsa because we got huge mangoes in our BB.  Mango, cucumber, red onion, jalapeno, lime juice and a ton of cilantro.  It smells amazing, and all those foods are getting better acquainted in the fridge right now.  I'm sure their friendship will blossom into something truly spectacular for dinner tonight.  Paired with a truly delicious microbrew, and dinner cannot come soon enough. 

I love this healthy food thing.  I love that with a little creativity (and a grill), you can eat like you're in a 4 star restaurant any time you want.  Food for fuel and for entertainment.  Amazing.

Day 63:  Brought.

  1. I think I figured this blog following thing! Sorry - been reading, but not commenting publicly. You're doing awesome!

    Jen and I recently did a big veggie dinner - akin to your "hobo" grill thing. Excellent. Mango!
