Any one who follows me on twitter will know how passionate I have felt over the Irish Marriage Equality Referendum. Voting was yesterday. When I was a young teenager in Ireland it was illegal to be gay, it was only 1993 when it was de-criminalised. I remember friends having such a hard time coming out in small town Ireland. I am very proud that my country is the first to pass marriage equality by popular vote 🙂 a huge turn out with over 60% saying YES!!

This is my Green, White & Gold Celebration Juice! (well orange as it is a carrot!) – just incase those are the colours of the Irish flag! Though most will be celebrating with a fermented drink, perhaps this would be good for the nation’s party hangover tomorrow!! 😉

Celebration Juice!

  • A two inch in diameter bundle of wheatgrass
  • A ripe unwaxed green pear
  • A medium carrot
  • One stalk of celery
  • A few mint leaves
  • A few oregano leaves
  • Optional: Double shot of water kefir.
  • A few lettuce leaves- which did not wish to be photographed

You will have to have a masticating juicer for the wheatgrass, but you can always juice the rest and add a spoon of your favourite green superfood powder to enhance it!

Makes two small juices - so you can share with your significant other!!

It gets dark early in Ireland this time of year, about four fifteen pm today! I made a bright energising juice to counter it! A simple one…

bright juice for a dark evening

Juice!

  • One large unwaxed org green apple
  • Half an organic cucumber
  • Half an unwaxed lemon- leave a slice to have with it!
  • An inch and a half in diameter bundle of wheatgrass
  • Optional:Two double shots of water kefir
  • A ReAlLLY thin slice of organic ginger and inch long
  • A nub of turmeric root about the size of the top of your baby finger*

It is refreshing antioxidant and vitamin packed zesty tasty light wonder. Wow that was a lot of adjectives in one go! Plus live bacteria with the kefir!

* that is a technical measuring term, used mainly in my kitchen

Winter wonders

it has been unseasonably mild here up until a couple of weeks ago. The first frost was this morning. It was still and cold with a wintry freezing fog. Beautiful. A chilly day last week the fog and morning dew lasted all day. Gave me a chance to snap a couple of shots! Give me another couple of months and the novelty of cold and wet may have worn off! 😉
