Bam and I went to the beach today and had a wonderful afternoon just relaxing on the sand and listening to the waves. We both read our Eckhart Tolle books, A New Earth and The Power of Now. Good stuff if you haven’t already delved into it.
Then we decided to visit one of fave raw places, Euphoria Loves Rawvolution. Bam ordered a lovely Coconut Jerk Sandwich which was delicious! A sense of adventure overtook me and I went for the Durian Loveshake. Why adventure you might ask? Well, Durian fruit is a seasonal fruit only and it’s supposed to be soooo good for us yet somewhat on the .. hmmm… how shall I say it… STINKY side! Yes, indeed. There are even hotels in Southeast Asia which ban this fruit due to its inherent odiferous qualities.
Anyway, The Loveshake which is Durian fruit mixed with the cinnamon almond milk arrived. I could smell it before I could taste it. I have to say… this is so not for me. Maybe I tried the wrong thing first. Maybe in liquid form the smell is worse? Bam tried it and liked it a bit more than I did. Even so, it’s been a few hours now and wow, the taste keeps coming back and it is not one I’d like to relive!!! So, for now Durian, I shall bid you adieu. Until I develop another sense of adventure to try you on another day.
Captain Bam says, “Funky fruit. Not too sure about this one!”
On another note, Euphoria has changed and is more of a restaurant now where they come and take your order. The meal there was lovely and the raw foods are wonderfully prepared. Our Chocolate Buckwheat Turtles to go are all gone!!!! Yum!!!
