A day in my life: Filling my body with the most amazing food on this Pure Joy Planet
I LOVE greens. I love em in the morning, noon and night.
I start my day with a quart of water filled with some of the most amazing stuff. Here's what was in it today:
Juice of 1 lemon (good for cleansing the liver in the AM),
