Today is the day. My husband and I are starting a 60 day fruit/veggie juicing odyssey. Nothing else but that, for 60 days, as per the Joe Cross movie, Fat Sick & Nearly Dead.

This morning’s breakfast was a recipe I followed from the movie. But this orange concoction was one I made up on the fly. I have to say, I was skeptical about just playing mad scientist and throwing veggies and fruit together willynilly. However, my latest concoction is surprisingly yummy! Carrots, red bell pepper, orange bell pepper, celery, bosc pears, and an apple. Gratuitous cheeseball in the picture not included.

So I’m normally not one to try and cram health related stuff down people’s gullets. I’m really not. I’m the champion of cupcakes, champagne, chocolate, and folderol. However… about a month ago my husband and I watched this documentary on Netflix, and I am not exaggerating when I say it has changed our lives. Not only that, but by word of mouth, so many people in our community have watched it and have adopted this mindset, that it is astounding. People you wouldn’t ordinarily think would do this. People who probably haven’t eaten vegetables of any substantial amount in decades. I know I hadn’t. But all that has changed.

Do me a favor… just check it out. There isn’t anything gross in it, there are no massive scare tactics like some health documentaries use. Just a cool guy from Australia who was fed up getting the runaround by doctors, and fed up with his own eating habits.

The first half of the movie is good. But it is the last half of the movie that is so amazing, so incredibly inspiring, that for the first time in my life I can honestly, wholeheartedly use the phrase “if HE can do it, I can do it!” And for me, it isn’t a weight thing. It is a health thing. A “I want to feel energized, glowing, and free!” thing. And it is astonishing to see the results first hand, let me tell ya. ~Aimee~

Oh how I love this. I would quite enjoy sitting down and sharing a cup of coffee with this man. This is a short vignette about Yoshi Masuda who runs a thing called Hope Cafe, sharing his passion for coffee and music with the victims of The Great East Earthquake and Tsunami… lifting spirits where he can. A simple thing, but you can see the much needed happiness filtering into these people’s eyes. ~Aimee~

I already loved Dax Shepard, and now I adore his girlfriend. And I’m telling you now, straight up truth, if someone surprised me with a visit from a real fox, this is E X A C T L Y how I would react. ~Aimee~

It was a tearful experience to say the least.

Baudelaire, by Aimee Stewart (A tribute to Michael Parkes and Baudelaire)

The Beauty

I’m fair, O mortals, as a dream of stone;
My breasts whereon, in turn, your wrecks you shatter,
Were made to wake in poets’ hearts alone
A love as indestructible as matter.
A sky-throned sphinx, unknown yet, I combine
The cygnet’s whiteness with a heart of snow.
I loathe all movement that displaces line,
And neither tears nor laughter do I know.
Poets before my postures, which I seem
To learn from masterpieces, love to dream
And there in austere thought consume their days.
I have, these docile lovers to subject,
Mirrors that glorify all they reflect —

These eyes, great eyes, eternal in their blaze!

(Baudelaire, as translated by Roy Campbell - 1952)
