Quick Monday Update

May I just say that orange-fleshed honeydew melon is absolutely delicious!!?? It doesn’t taste like regular honeydew (which I personally don’t like). It almost tastes like cantaloupe, but a bit different… hard to explain but it is so amazingly yummy.

Anyway, the plan is still to leave tomorrow for Cali. I have a million and one things to do today but it’s all written down on a list, which is keeping it manageable.

Fruit is not allowed to be taken into California, (and yes they stop you at the border to make sure you don’t have any) so whatever I bring with me needs to be eaten before I leave Arizona Thursday morning.

Speaking of which, I am going 100% raw fruitarian starting today. As shallow as it sounds, I want to be as slim as possible before I see my family and friends on Thursday/Friday… so I have about 4 or 5 days to lose an additional inch or two. It’s going to be well over 100 degrees throughout much of my road trip, which means all I’ll really want is fresh fruit anyway. I’m bringing a couple of awesome raw nut and dried fruit combos with me as well – pistachio/golden Himalayan raisins and dried mulberries/macadamias. Mmmm. I think for fruit, I’m going to bring bananas and melons for Tuesday, Wed and Thurs. morning, because they are pretty easy to deal with. (Mangos are a little too messy to bring, as I learned in Branson). Maybe some berries and a couple of apples as well.

Anyway, I’ll update more later… time to go get my car serviced and hit the Sprint store for a replacement wireless headset for my cell phone!

Wow, good luck! I don’t think I could go 100% raw, but I admire anyone who can.
