Not much to report

Well, the car wouldn't start today.  Our next-door neighbor was just coming home from the night shift as Todd was leaving for work, so he gave him a lift.  Have no idea what's the matter with it.  Hope we can get it fixed tomorrow, or the whole campmeeting weekend at the in-laws' house will have to be cancelled.  And Carly's been sooooo looking forward to it.

For breakfast today I had a cup of carrot juice, a small yellow mango (so yummy), and a slice of whole-wheat bread with almond butter and jam.  I don't toast my bread anymore, after reading what Dr. Fuhrman said about burnt/browned foods being carcinogens. 

Lunch was another big bowl of vegetable stew, a huge salad with tahini dressing, and lots and lots of watermelon.  The tahini dressing called for a very odd combination of ingredients, but it turned out surprisingly good.  Let's see if I can remember them all.  Tahini, of course, and lemon juice and garlic (so far, no surprises).  1/2 a banana, 7 dates.  Tahini is naturally a bit salty, and I've never known garlic to go well with sweet things like bananas and dates.  I think there may have been another ingredient or two, but it's escaping me now.  Anyway, it's delicious.
