Breakast day 1-travelling

We'll see how hard or easy it is to do this while travelling...

What we do with all the stuff

So as you probably know, there is a lot of pulp that comes out of the machine. The mango pulp gets eaten by Alex - and Phoebe - but the rest of the stuff gets given to the neighbor chickens.  Yes, we do live in So. Mpls and our neighbors have chickens.  The neighbors are awesome and their chickens are great.  Our neighbors have moved out of their house because they're doing a big renovation project - so they probably don't know how much we're feeding their chickens - but it's all good stuff!

Here are the chicken ladies loving up the veggies.

Day 8 Breakfast

Very Simple mangoes and apples....and tasty!

Where the Juicer came from...

So here's what really happened.  We bought U2 tickets 2 years ago for a concert that was supposed to take place last year.  Well, they rescheduled and I was extremely sad...but got over it.  We'd have just as much fun (probably more cause last year I was pregnant) going this year!  Then...work interfered and I found out I'd have to go to Philadelphia the morning of the concert...which totally sucks.  So....today is the day that I am leaving on a jet plane.  But this is the story:

Day 7 - Dinner

It was a random one - we put in swiss chard, cucumbers, carrots, apples, ginger and lime. 
We tried the swiss chard as we had gotten some from our CSA and figured we'd throw it in for the green leafy vegetables part.

Alex didn't like the smell of it - but I actually thought it wasn't very flavorful.  Not bad, not great, just normal.

Day 7 - one week in!

Breakfast was good - mango, pineapple and nothing else.
Very much tasty like a drink from Jamba Juice or Odwalla.  Again, Zoe wanted in on the action.  Although it just means less juice for my breakfast!  I tell ya, kids make you give up everything!

Day 6

Today's breakfast was Mango and Orange - it was tasty! Even Zoe wanted it...

For dinner we got some good veggies finally!  And a good recipe!  beet, carrots, celery, ginger, cucumber, and parsley - called Tropical Envy.

The beet and ginger flavors were the strongest...prob. not my favorite - but maybe put in a bit more pineapple and it would have sweetened things up.
