I'm going sugar-free!

Thanks to everyone who voted on which recipe I should make from The Sexy Sugar-Free Vegan Project ebook, by Nancy Alisce Chalmers. And congratulations to Kat as the winner of a copy of The Sexy Sugar-Free Vegan Project ebook!

 Here's how you voted:
3 votes = spicy tofu scramble with roasted red peppers
7 votes = pumpkin pie and coconut cream slice
2 votes =  peanut butter cacao chip truffles
9 votes = Bonnie's roasted vegetable pot pies with smoked 'cheese' sauce

My intention was to make the most voted recipe this weekend. But... I ran out of time! Too much to do this weekend :( So... I made the celery, kale and carrot juice with parsley and ginger recipe today!

P.S. If you Instagram a recipe you made from The Sexy Sugar-Free Vegan Project ebook you can enter win a box of Austrailian grown Pure Harvest goodies! See @nacyandthewolf on Instagram for more info.

I plan on making all four of the recipes soon. The juice was great, so I'm interested in how the other recipes are going to come out. But I'm not going to get around to it for a few weeks because I've decided to detox so I can join The Sexy Sugar-Free Vegan Project!

I've been a vegetarian since January 2005. I've been a a Zumba instuctor, teaching up to five 1-hour classes per week. I've not worked out. I've done 30 days of Insanity. I've done the Master Cleanse several times and made a 1/2 attempt at The Crazy Sexy Diet. My weight generally stays within a 5 pound range and some days I'm more toned or bloated than others. The only time my body changes is during the Master Cleanse. When I did the Master Cleanse for 10 days in April I lost 10 pounds and my stomach was almost totally flat! But I eventually gain the weight and bloated feeling back.

With that said, I know that sugar is my enemy. I've know it for awhile. It's what's holding me back from my true weight (which is the weight that I have on my driver's license!). Now, I know these curves aren't going anywhere. I love them! But the excess weight and bloatedness has got to go. So I spent last night reading I Quit Sugar ebook, by Sarah Wilson (it's recommended reading from the The Sexy Sugar-Free Vegan Project ebook).

I'm going follow Sarah's advice and to do an "experiment." Give up sugar for eight weeks. I'm really curious to see that happens to my body! Besides, I have plenty of recipes from The Sexy Sugar-Free Vegan Project ebook to keep my taste buds occupied!

WISH ME LUCK!

I'll leave you with this very special of a little boy's revelation of eating animals.

 

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!
Sorry, Daddy. I no longer eat your famous BBQ ribs.

29 - tune in

I don't know much about LIZ , a new pop artist from North Hollywood Cali. I just know that I really like her music!

I guess if you call her sound early 2000 R&B old school. Liz kind of reminds me of Ariana Grande's new song, The Way. Hmmmm, it make me wonder if pop/R&B ballads is a new trend in chick music!

Check out Liz's 2nd song, Hush.

Super cute summer jam right?

 

And, LIZ just taught me about swag girls or swaggy girls style.

Swag girls are those ultra pretty tomboys next door that wears their boyfriend's caps and cool kicks. Their uniform is complete with a tight tank top and baggy pants. Or a baggy jersey and the new trend of cut-off jean shorts. I guess you have to have lots of swag to look cute as these gals do!

66 - photo diary

My photo diary: 6/3 - 6/9.

This weekend I tried out an imPRESS Press-On Manicure by Broadway Nails. Let's just say that I'm not a press on nail kind of gal. I plucked them off after 24 hours of wear.

But my new favorite try of the week was the Bud Light Lime Straw-Ber-Rita. I hate beer. But the Straw-Ber-Rita had a very nice berry wine cooler taste. The Lime-a-Rita was nasty though. But when I need a cheap drink and a buzz I'll be purchasing another Straw-Ber-Rita! I sure wish I had one to go with my black bean and sweet potato tostadas! Next time, next time.

And... the North Miami area was a lake Friday. Mid-afternoon I found myself taking off my shoes and jeans and trading them in for a skirt and trash bag shoes to wade in the water to rescue my poor little Jetta. I've moved away from snow into a flood zone. Lovely.

104 - gray is great

It's that time! Sunday is gray is great day here on Dirty Laundry.

Accessories makes the outfit right? I would wear ALL of these accessories with a dark gray tunic, black leggings and some cute shoes.

 1. Grey Bow Bracelet - How darling is the gray leather and gold bow bracelet?
TOO CUTE!

2. Gorjana Daphne Ring - LOVE that ring. I wouldn't mind wearing that daily.

3. Geometric Necklace - I'm obsessed with geometrics. One neutral bead makes this necklace special.

4. Sepia Zip Bag - This heather gray bag has lots of pockets. Just how I like it. Tassels makes it boho chic.


BOOK SALE extended for another 24-hrs!
