Had a very good nights rest and actually slept in till 8am. 

Felt like I needed to hydrate as soon as I got up so decided to juice up some cucumbers.

Love the smell of cucumbers and even more so, love sipping cucumbers in water.

I decided to drink a light juice and the other half thickened up to fill me up because my daughter reminded me we planned to hit the track today.

Killed my blender so I invested in a "Fusion Juicer".
Could not believe how much all the various machines were out on the market.
Satisfied with my purchase of under $100.

Juiced up brussel sprouts & cucumber this morning. I realize now that I prefer soaking brussel sprouts overnight. 
I killed my blender :-(
Good thing that I have a back up blender. Not as strong & has a smaller jar but it will do.

Raw Brussel Sprouts to drink
Soaked brussel sprouts in water in the fridge overnight and they were nice & mushy to blend up for my morning drink.
Searched online for recipe suggestions but figured the best way to drink would be straight raw.
