Juicing - Day Nine

We have juiced a couple of times today.  Our family-sized juicing this morning was a whole fresh pineapple (minus the outside & the core), a quart of fresh strawberries (caps & all), a fresh mango and two apples.  It was wonderful as always.

We have had a full day & Tony still has a full night of ministry ahead of him, so the one thing he asked me to do for him was to juice two grapefruits up for him to drink when he came in this afternoon.  I always juice grapefruits the old fashioned way.  Here's my antique juicer...well actually it's my mom's antique juicer.

Two other key tools are in this picture, a great cutting board & a great knife.  This cutting board is a bamboo one that Tony gave me for Christmas one year.  It stays on top of our counter all the time.  The chef's knife is also an invaluable tool for us.  I think we have three in all and we use them constantly for chopping & slicing, especially with all this juicing!!  A big shout out to Rada knives for being my personal favorite.

So here's the juice from one red grapefruit...
Here's the juice from two. He drank it all down & headed out of the door for a full night.
Fresh juice = more power for living!!
