No More Excuses! ~a story of a juicing expedition

I have been inspired to use the slogan “No More Excuses” from the Biggest Loser….

no….it has not inspired me to get out and do burpees, or treadmill, or rope arm swingy-thingys…but it has inspired me to say “NO MORE EXCUSES” …mom and i have been juicing for over 15 years now and it is the one thing i always find myself saying “i need to juice more!” It seems like i get into such a great habit of juicing for awhile…and then my juicer collects just about as much dust on it as my piano….geeee-ross! so, i found these little bottles on amazon (link here)

i did some research on them and threw those puppies into my shopping cart in a matter of 5 seconds….i am an ULTIMATE PRO at online shopping…don’t mean to brag or anything…! today, my cute little UPS man dressed in brown made me a happy girl when he delivered these to my doorstep….YAY! (my relationship with him has blossomed….see above statement in bold to make the connection)

so i ripped open the package (i’m really quick at that too! lots of practice! see above statement in bold again….i’m starting to be repetative…consider me like your nana)…cleaned up some carrots and halved some apples and set out on a juicing expedition…ohhhhhhh sounds so glamerous, doesn’t it?

here’s my juicer….see….nice and clean…just swept the dust right onto the piano~

carrots (i can hear you all say “duh!!!”

apples….(double duh!!!!)

let the expedition begin

the only problem i ran into was how to pour the juice into the small mouthed bottles…so i just cut an aquafina bottle in half and used the upside down spout as a funnel…i macgyver-ed it’s ass! (expedition impromptu awesomeness!)

i used about 8 carrots and 1 1/2 apples for each! they recommend filling them to the top and closing the cap tight to seal in nutrients and vitamins…throw into the fridge and drink up within 48 hours…..BRING IT ON!

there’s a little 7 year old that i’m going to have to battle with for these

….she loves carrot apple juice as much as i…..but this is one thing i’m willing to share…..cookies on the other hand….NOT SO MUCH!

what’s your favorite thing to juice….give me some good ones….i like to explore when i’m on expeditions!
