Tonight i made some nice kale and avocado salad.

Massaged with some celtic sea salt, olive oil, lemon and garlic.

Or i probably could have said some avocado with a bit of kale salad, and no one would have thought twice about it! I do think i went a little overboard with the massaging, though . That combined with my lack of cooperation as far as using liberal amounts of oil goes, lead it to turn out a bit water logged and super reduced. Other than that it was really great, smooth, easy on the jaw as opposed to the sometimes fibrous kale, pre-treatment. With the avocado it reminded me some sort of creamed spinach.

I've really been trying to steer away from sugars lately. I'm figuring out that my body type thrives best on a low sugar diet. I've been eating so many sweet fruits lately like oranges and apples and bananas because nothing's been satisfying me. I chalk it up to the cold. I don't like the feeling all that sugar gives me. I can't just wake up and eat fruit. It feels like i'm burning right through it. So i turn to nuts, which are probably the raw food world's worst confidants. So i'm gonna start sprouting religiously and hopefully it'll put an end to the whole fruit/nut vicious cycle. Greens seem to help the rapid fruit burning problem, too, in smoothie form. But there's no sort of abundance this time of year.

Oh, winter, with it's appetite amplifications and simultaneous produce scarcity, it's just too cute.
