For this long weekend, Mum is visiting and staying with me, and we are having a girly detox and luxury relaxation weekend. It has been lovely so far! We started yesterday after Mum finished work, she came over with all her stuff and we had a simple but yummy chunky vegetable soup. We went for a walk in the parklands after that and then came back for a pasta dinner, not exactly detox but hey, there is also a luxury component here too, don’t forget. We looked at the lolcats for a while and giggled until an earlish bedtime at 11pm. Then we got up at 8 this morning and had hot lemon water and fruit for brekkie, then off to Janesce on King William Rd for 1.5hr detox body wrap treatments, mmmmm, now that was nice! That was my birthday present, arent i spoilt!?!

I still smell all yummy! Despite feeling all warm, fragrant, relaxed and somewhat jelly-like, we headed into the Central Markets for brunch (hmmm, Zuma’s full on breakfast could hardly be considered a legitimate part of a vegetarian detox weekend, but we will just skim over that bit perhaps) and then did a bit of shopping for the rest of the weekend’s menu. This afternoon has been spent reading and talking, and dinner was grilled salmon and mixed grilled veg. Ive stayed away from the computer for most of the weekend, but finally got bored of reading tonight and here i am blogging instead.

Tomorrow will be yet another day of quiet and healthy - we will start off with the same brekkie, and lunch is salad.... and then Mum heads back home. We have a garage sale to plan and more quiet music and reading, maybe a walk perhaps… I love having a quiet weekend, but having Mum around to have one with is a special treat!

  I guess that salmon will help with your detox. I myself often pick salmon fillet that have thick fat layers.

  Cut into thin slices, give some seasonings and cook it in microwave to prevent the healthy melted oil mixed with veg oil.

  delicious and healthy.....
