Day 28

Today...pretty much the same. Am home again and had muesli for breakfast, rice with cooked veg and chicken for lunch (that's it now) and will have a big salad for dinner. No wine left so can't be tempted there.
Still looking into appliances to allow me to be so much more creative with the raw cooking.

Day 27

So again, that was yesterday.
Muesli with oat milk and chia for breakfast.
Brown rice with the veg and bit of chicken for lunch
And was over at my BF for dinner and had chicken curry with white rice and made myself a GREEN salad too. And 1 glass of white wine.
Not brilliant but ey.. Soon better.

Day 26

No wine yesterday. I was good. Had green tea instead.
This morning had a late BF of muesli with oat milk.
Forgot to eat my banana.
Had lunch of courgette spaghetti with pesto and rest of brown rice.
Banana for desert.
And tonight I just CANNOT face a cold salad with no carbs or protein.. nothing "consistent".. so I've just crumbled. It will be boiled veg in coconut milk, brown rice and CHICKEN with curry. And I'm HUNGRY.
Eating raw without blender, food processor, coffee grinder and dehydrator is NOT easy... I will have to see how I'm gonna avoid going all the way back, as that's NOT what I want. Might get myself a dehydrator for 65€ and a blender for another 65, but to be honest, don't have the money right now!.. So we'll see.
I'm gonna enjoy my sins tonight though, hehe!! WITH some red wine!! While I'm at it, I might as well!

Day 25

Spent almost the WHOLE day yesterday looking into blenders, food processors etc.. I feel s stuck without them! And the dehydrator...and coffee grinder... It's a lot, but to have some fun in the kitchen and get away from the salads, I feel I'm gonna really need them...
Anyway, I don't have them so I'm slipping a bit..
This morning had muesli with chia seeds and oat milk with 1 banana.
Then later 1 banana.
Lunch big salad.
Dinner big salad with wild greens and some toasted brown rice with onion and garlic.
No wine :)
But tonight I'm out, at my BF's so.. not sure what will happen.
We made peace so from now on things will change probably...Luckily he knows my passion for "green" salads, so it shouldn't be too hard.

Day 24

My spaghetti yesterday were awful, far too acidic.
I feel so stuck without a blender.. no inspiration for cooking. My "bread" is kinda rotting away upstairs as it's not very sunny. What a waste of food!!
So I'm desperately looking for some cheap appliances, as it's making me look for other food!
Anyway, it's 11 now and i'm just having my "breakfast", muesli with loads of things in it, chia seeds etc. That should keep me going..

Late lunch was mixed salad with lots of wilds and a bit of brown rice toasted with onions.
Dinner was some very ripe "sapo" melon, delicious!! And yes, I had another glass of wine.. :(

Day 23

That's today..
It seems I'm on the mend.
I didn't cough at all last night, but started again this morning, though much less..
Just made myself a late breakfast of 1 mango, 2 bananas and 1 kiwi. that'll be a brunch then, as I don't think I'll be hungry again after that, at least for a while. I might make some spaghetti alla putanesca for tonight. If I fancy the idea later on.

What a strange food diary this makes, hehe. But I feel GREAT, better than in a long long time (apart from the "cold"!)

16.00... and i've plunged. That little devil in me has pulled his strings and I fell... after more than 1 month..
I started cooking my spaghetti alla putanesca, as well as I can with half the ingredients, then went for some oil, saw the prawn crackers (I know... I should have thrown them!) and even worse... the bottle of "gweek" wine! (one of my pupils struggled with that "greek wine" for quite a while, so it's kinda funny to think I'm drinking Greek Wine, hehe).
Anyway.. here I am, 1 bag of prawn crackers and 1/2 bottle of Greek wine later.
BAD GIRL!
But it's nice....
Tonight spaghetti (YES! raw...)

Day 22

That's yesterday..
No-voice day. Absolutely couldn't speak.
Drank a lot and bought some cough sirup, because my groins are aching from all the coughing!
Anyway, because I felt so rubbish, I wasn't hungry at all during the day, but in the evening I really started to feel it, and started craving some carbs. So firstly I ate some flax crackers (that were really NOT nice, I need to work on that recipe!) with some hummus I still had. And then I decide this was such an occasion, and cooked some brown rice, which I had with gomasio and a salad.
I HAVE to look into these apparatus, coffee grinder, blender, smoothiemaker, food processor..as without a blender I'm very stuck! But money is so tight right now...
