Pineapple, I have someone I’d like you meet. This is my new friend, Breville.
Now that my mom has gotten into juicing she’s become my juice muse. She’s turning me on to all sorts of juice books and has inspired me to think outside the romaine bag.
I bought a pineapple a few days ago with intent to ring it out in the juicer. Today was the day my conifer seed shaped fruit had a juice date with some carrots, an apple and ginger.
And to think as a kid pineapple was my mortal enemy. I use to play dodge ball with the pineapple in fruit cocktail, aiming instead for peaches, pears and cherries. Now it’s the star of the show.
I selected my running ensemble with care, to match my juice. Donning an orange shirt to celebrate the wonder of carrots in vegetable juice.
A crisp, cool 5 some odd miles and 40 some odd minutes later I was home to put together some fruit cereal.
Two diced bananas, two diced dates tossed in flax with some hand crushed walnuts. Topped post-photo shoot with some unsweetened vanilla hemp milk.
One of the best features of fruit cereal? It doesn’t get soggy. Not like regular cereal anyway. It is of course soft and mushy given it’s made of FRUIT after all, but nuts aren’t losing their crunch while you get up four times to fetch more yogurt, toast, dropped spoons and extra napkins for your dining companions.
Orange you glad it’s Sunday? Me too.
Your mom juices? Wow. I dont even talk to mine. Gosh, what I wouldnt give for a relationship with a mom, and with one who juices. Girl…you are sooooo lucky!!!!!!!!!!
Lighter matters: your brekkie looks great and this: get up four times to fetch more yogurt, toast, dropped spoons and extra napkins for your dining companions.
HOW TRUE!!!!
I’m actually at the point where if I really wanna enjoy food, I resort to popping on a 10 min You Tube video for my lil one so that I get some peace LOL
Thx for the twitter hookup. Brave new world. I tell ya!
your running picture is so hardcore! i really need to try fruit cereal, but i never have any fresh bananas, because I freeze them for smoothies…I’m glad you tried pineapple in the juicer, it’s one of my favorite juices!
I am so VERY glad it’s Sunday!!! No run for me today but fruit cereal is DEFINITELY on the menu, thanks to you it’s the addiction of the week in my world. I’m off to crack open my last young coconut and plant some Marigolds… Have a Wonderful Sunday!!

I love pineapple juice, so that one would be my favorite!
Hmm the juice looks pretty, and tasty…but was it? Tasty that is.
I love me some pineapple. What I don’t love is cutting it up. I stopped buying it for that reason. Sometimes I amaze myself at how lazy I sound. lol
Orange is one of my fave colors
And I’m so glad you name your appliances. Even if they are named directly after the brand…
Maybe I should call him Brevie.
Just came across your blog… love it! I love juicing too though I need to upgrade my juicer! Love your cereal idea!
