Going raw.

Today marks the first full day of our month-long raw food diet. I have nothing to say except: get me the fuck out of here. Shit has already hit the fan. I know that as a family, we'll be able to stick it out through this one, but to say that this has been hard is an understatement. We have really embraced the woe-is-me factor of our new lifestyle, combining it with our usual elitist attitude. Thankfully, after eating raw fruits and veggies all day, we gathered and made a beautiful cucumber dill soup and it made everything better... until we started craving bread. And then babies. And then flies. Pictures below make the whole thing look much more fun than it really was. (I'm kidding. We already love this shit.)


Raisins: Raw or not? (Raw, but you may have to sun-dry them yourself depending on your source.)


Our bible.


Our soup, pre-blender. Cucumbers, celery, avocado, dill, fresh-squeezed orange juice, etc.


Cucumber dill soup. Very summery. Especially since it was, you know, cold.


Our dessert: smoothies made of berries, water, and agave nectar. A delicious ending to our first day as raw foodists!
