kettlebellsWoke up at 5:45 am to get to my 6:30 Kettlebell class.  I wasn't sure if I'd have the energy for such a high-intensity workout, but I am totally addicted to it so I decided to go ahead and do it. Surprisingly, it was only minorly painful. I definitely did not have the kind of energy I usually do, but it was ok.

After class I took my herbs and had more waldorf salad. I usually have very good energy all day if I've gotten a good night's sleep, so it was noticeable when I got kindof sleepy around 3 pm. I made some green tea and then I was good to go. I made a really nice dip out of soaked almonds, walnuts, carrots, broccoli, garlic, miso, tamari, and onion. I dipped celery and cucumbers in the puree for dinner and that was really satisfying.

I think I'm really getting into this raw thing!  Probably not for the long term or for all year round. Raw foods can create a cold condition in the digestive system, so I definitely wouldn't want to do it into the winter, but for summer it feels great!
