Our weary bodies, abused from a dearth of tooth rotting and waist expanding sweets from Christmas, are in desperate need of some real food. Not another breakfast of greasy bacon and toast. That sounds yucky and heartburn inducing. It was time to break out the juicer and make some swamp water juice, containing carrots, collard greens, apples, pears, pineapple and celery.
That took forever. The next step was to use the precious blueberries to turn the ghastly juice into a smoothie that was wonderful. With my eldest boy sick and the rest of the clan moving sluggishly, this drink was today's salvation. Vitamin pills do not work as well as fruit and veggies. God makes the good stuff, not humans.

I wish I could do this every day, but it takes a ton of effort. The payoff is worth it when we are all feeling run down because it really helps. Even if you do not have chickens to feed the scraps to; the fruits and veggies will help you. Do whatever you can to ride out the worst of winter.
