Day #9 – Two bombs and a success…

So when you are preparing raw food, or any kind of food really, things don’t always turn out exactly like you had hoped.  Today is a great example of that.

Everything I have made so far on this journey has been very tasty, I might even say delightful.

But today, I tried to make two different soups. They were so bad I couldn’t even have more than a few bites. I tried to make a Cream of Shittake mushroom soup, and a Thai curry. I hate wasting food, but there was just no way to fix either of these already strong flavors, oh well…

Then, I was really hungry. I wanted to just go out to eat, but I needed one thing to turn out yummy. I made a salad dressing, and made a big spinach salad. I think it turned out great. Phew… I was going to get cranky if I didn’t eat something soon haha.
