We lost a lot of trees with the heavy snow. We have a few just bent over like this. We can either use a come-along and try to pull it up, or just cut it down. We like our little forest.
So I was reading about people that have a hard time loosing weight and they said sometimes it's because you have toxins built up in your body. So I decided to do a "master cleanse" This is where you make this lemonade of fresh lemon juice and pure maple grade B syrup. You drink this lemonade all day and that's all. No food at all! You supposed to do this for 10 days. I did it for 8 days and now on day 9 I decided to add veggies to my "fast". It wasn't very hard to do as you feel pretty full from the lemonade.
This was my dinner on day 7 and oh it was sooo good. I couldn't believe how good broth could taste.
The strange thing is when your not eating you can get really into cooking food. I've been cooking up a storm. I made a pot of sauce and snuck in a huge bunch of spinach. You never even know it's in there.
It was Cody's birthday so we made him a couple cakes to celebrate.
James made the chiffon cake
Monica made the Carmel cake
Gareth in the bath.
Here James is separating the eggs for his Chiffon cake.
James making his famous chiffon cake. He can do it completely alone now.
I made donuts one day. I never fry anything, but I figured it's a good time since I won't be eating them. They were just a plain easy sour milk donuts and I added flax seed and wheat germ, so they weren't totally empty calories.
