Seeds. Ha. tasty!

I love cool packaging, and I love food. So, I love it when the two come together. I bought these sunflower seeds in this lovely brown paper packet at the Chinese supermarket today. I love the simplicity of the colour scheme, and the crispness of the packet. Also, not seeing inside makes the seeds even more enticing. But, what I love most are all the cute little translations, like this one...


Seeds. Ha. tasty! How could I resist? The eating instructions are quite detailed, and warn me to exercise caution so that I don't swallow any shells. Just lovely.

Speaking of food, I stumbled across a great little food blog called "Bunny Pie." All the recipes (and there are lots of veggie ones) are absolutely drool worthy. Can't wait 'til I'm done this detox thing so that I can try the Alsatian Potato Pie. Yum.

Finally, a detox update. I am still feeling kind of miserable, but apparently, this is normal. I think it's the caffiene withdrawal that's giving me all these aches and pains. But, I have lost 3 pounds so far, so that kind of makes me happy. I am cooking dinner for a friend tomorrow night, so that will be a real challenge!

I can spend hours in international foods markets just looking at the graphics on the packages. I tend to gravitate towards the candy aisles + try not to buy.
I think you are one of the bravest people with the no coffee part of the detox! But you've come this far...
Take care ~Shona
