Without doubting it or questioning it too deeply, late this morning I needed something more than the vegetable juices could offer to me. With chills running through me and a light headache developing again, I stopped straining all the systems and started to cook some kitchadi. I had a medjool date while the dish cooked.
It was the right choice. The grains warmed and grounded me without filling me. The wind and cold outside had me feeling like this was more of a fall fast rather than a spring fast. It is warming up outside, the rain has ended and sunny weather is expected tomorrow. I will end the day with another juice with Susanne, and see what tomorrow brings.
