Although I said I was no longer obsessing about coffee, that may have just been a temporary lull in my cravings. Today, I have indeed resumed obsessing about coffee. I turn my head when I walk by Peet's so as not to get an accidental whiff. When I go back, I'll go back to decaf. But I just cannot wait to go back. And I do believe this is the longest I've ever gone without chocolate. I'd like some of that too. But when I go back, I'm going to find the ultra dark, uber healthy kind -- not the junky loaded-up-with-sugar-and-chemicals kind.
In other cleanse news, here's one of my favorite meals -- from even before the cleanse:
Peel and cut a sweet potato into small pieces. Cover and microwave for about 7 minutes with a splash of water. Separately, tear up kale and cover and microwave for about 2-3 minutes with a splash of water. Drain both. Normally, I mix them together with TJ's spicy peanut sauce but I found a cleanse-friendly alternative online:
1/4 cup rice vinegar
2 Tbsp. peanut butter
1 Tbsp. GF soy sauce
2 tsp. agave
2 tsp. sesame oil
1 tsp. chili oil (I found sesame chili oil in one bottle so I just use 3 tsp. of that)
1 clove of garlic (I pop in the frozen, pre-minced squares from TJs)
Mix. Delicious! Leslie
Leslie, you looked wonderful today! -M
