Day 12
Day 12
Today has been pretty busy, a trip to Brisbane to a couple of Farmer's Markets.
We visited a new one at Kedron Park, and also the West End Market.
I found some great, nicely ripened Organic Navels, Cappi had Lychees, blushed Green Grapes and a freshly pressed Sugar Cane Juice.
In the afternoon we went to a Birthday Party.
The host had very kindly laid on some lovely fruit for Cappi: Fresh Figs, Strawberries, Grapes and Watermelon.
Then when the other children shared the Birthday Cake, she brought out a special Fresh Fruit Cake, that she had made just for Cappi.
This thoughtfulness and kindness really touched me. I do appreciate when someone goes out of their way to cater for us
Breakfast—the juice of 6 Organic Oranges from the Farmers market, juiced in my mouth
Lunch—The juice of 6 Mandarins, juiced in my mouth.
Tea—the juice of 5 Organic Navels, juiced in the Breville Juicer.

Day 11.
Day 11
The organic Navels from Maleny were good, so good there is only one left!
The organic Blood Navels, need a bit of sweetening in the sun methinks, they have been picked a tad under ripe. So I am leaving them in the sun for a few days. I made some juice with them today in the Breville Juicer.
Then a friend of ours arrived today with 10kg of Navels that he grows on his small-holding.
That was lovely timing.
So there was quite the variety of Oranges to choose from.
Breakfast—the juice of 4 organic Navels, juiced through the mouth, the juice of 2 local Oranges, juiced through the mouth.
Lunch—the juice of 5 Blood Navels through the Breville Juicer.
Tea—the juice of 6 of my friend's Navels, juiced in my mouth.
It was a lovely sunny day today, after all the rain so I spent much time with Cappi in the garden.

The Pot of Gold
The rainbows here have been so amazing in the last few days, today we were on the bus travelling back from Maleny (an awesome alternative town in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland—where I always feel at home, and people are smiley and mellow) and there was this amazing rainbow across the valley.
I felt that I did indeed have the 'Pot of Gold' at the end of the Rainbow because I had bags of organic Oranges on the bus seat next to me!
We had a great Orange hunt; found Blood Navels and really delicious Organic Navels at the wholefood Co-op. The Organic Navels had won best in show at the recent Maleny Show, and they were indeed sweet as.
I have been having just so much energy today on the Oranges, I did my morning work out and the weights seemed lighter in my hands and I felt very flexible doing my sit-ups and crunches.
I am not sure how far I will ride this train, but I have a houseful of Oranges and I am definitely buzzing today.
I feel very happy too.

Breakfast—3 naturally-grown Mandarins, juiced in my mouth
Lunch—a large fresh squeezed Orange juice from a Juice Bar, the juice of 2 organic Blood Navels and 2 organic navels, juiced in my mouth.
Snackaroo—the juice of 3 Mandarins, juiced in my mouth
Tea—the juice of 5 organic Oranges, through the Breville Juicer, 2 organic Blood Navels and 2 organic Navels, juiced in my mouth.

Here is one of the prize-winning Organic Navels.
Reminds me of a lunar landscape—Planet Orange.

Day 8
Day 8
Really appreciating the beautiful Oranges.
My local supplier is about finished, but by a stroke of good fortune, as often happens on mono, I found an organic supplier just a few kilometres down the road from where we live.
In addition to supplying local organic Oranges, they have an organic Strawberry farm (and the season has just started), and they are a small distribution centre for organic fruit and veggies.
How great, and I can walk there and pick up fruit. I got 10kg (22lbs) of Oranges today and some organic Strawberries for Cappi
Wow, that was a great find.
—Breakfast, the juice of 5 local Orange oranges, juiced in the mouth
—Lunch, the juice of 1 local Orange, juiced in the mouth, 5 local Oranges through the Breville Juicer.
—Tea, 5 Mandarins, juiced in the mouth, 4 Organic oranges, juiced in the mouth.
Fruitful Exercise
40 mins walking
30 mins dancing.
