Raw October: week two

This week contained an unparalleled treat: Dan and I celebrated our October twentieth anniversary by going out for lunch... during our thirty day raw detox! We went to Ezra’s Enlightened Cafe in Indianapolis and enjoyed Buddha bowls as well as raw desserts. Driving such a distance to go out to eat during a detox is no small sacrifice, but Dan took a day off work and I gave myself a day off from the fall cleaning operation that beset our home this week. Besides, I had plenty of knitting time as Dan did all the driving!
