Day #103 Pad Thai pg. 107 everyday raw
November 5, 2009
Today was such a perfect day! I woke up this morning and decided that I am always putting too much pressure on myself to do housework and the things that I think need to be done. So I went for a bike ride to the library after I got Sabby on the bus. The weather was breezy and cool. There is nothing better than to listen to John Butler Trio playing “Better Than” while riding on the bike trail on a more than perfect day! I felt so free and timeless.
When I arrived at the library it was closed, it opens at 10am. I went into the backyard of the library and laid a blanket on the ground and read some of my book by Wayne Dyer, There is a Spiritual Solution to Every Problem. I absolutely love this book. I am learning so much from it. My goal is to spend time with me and study and meditate. My wish is to let go of the things that no longer serve me.
Today was an enlightening day for me. I realized that I don’t have to conform to everyone’s ideas of what I should be doing with my life. I am free to do as I wish. I have my husband’s permission to reflect on life and get a break for a little while. He truly is made for me! He always understands me, even before I realize what I am thinking he usually knows. Thank you God for him!
Tonight I made the complete meal of Pad Thai. Jason liked it but not as much as The Present Moment’s. I will have to find the recipe for him. He did like it but he wasn’t absolutely crazy about it like I had hoped.
Vegetable Ingredients
jicama
snow peas
red bell pepper (sliced thin)
mung bean sprouts (I omitted, mine were not done)
Thai Chili Glaze
I marinated the snow peas and red pepper in the Glaze for a few hours. I made jicama rice. I used the food processor blade to make “rice”. It really is such an easy way to make the rice. M.K. suggests using a mandoline, or spiral slicer, or if you love to use your hands you can use a knife and cut thin slices.
I put the jicama in the bowl first, poured the Pad Thai Sauce on top then added veggies on top. It looked like it was cooked. I was tasty, but the chili is still my fave by far!
Everything is in motion. Everything flows. Everything is vibrating.
