happy.hour

not the usual kind but this happy hour  is rather raw.  or should you say raw food hour?

 first taste of cherries this year, they're not from finland but spain, it's still a tad too early for the weather here to produce such ripe and sweet stone fruits.

 the strawberries are genuine soumi, very sweet, fresh, juicy but not watery....

the sweet peas, eating these pods raw is your first experience and you're loving it.  the first bite has a little bitter veg after taste but after that you mouth is in the bursting of sweetness, so fresh and so pure.  pure joy!
this is definitely better than the usual happy hour that you had in the bars.  that said, you're actually abstaining alcohol for one month.  so far so good, other than the one glass of beer that you drank last week (purely to cool your throat), you've not touch a sip of wines and you're not missing it either.
there's no special reason to pause, it's purely an impromptu decision and you'll probably pick it up again.

you're still struggling with your cough and flu, not entirely sick but yet unwell. it's unpleasant to speak for the whole day in such condition. let's hope this natural oxidants and extra dosage of vitamin c will cure you completely.
