Grape juice ... for my soul


I have to definitely try and include fruits in my diet. Both me and hubby are not great on remembering to eat fruits. We get this sudden urge to eat healthy and buy a variety, but after a couple of days poor things they are out of sight in the fridge and out of mind.

A couple of weeks ago I discovered some black grapes in the fridge waiting for us to discover them . So they were a little soft but very sweet. With the new enthusiasm, that I am trying to maintain, I searched for a recipe for grape juice . Sure enough I found a simple one. Lo behold ! lovely and refreshing grape juice was ready to quench our thirst on this hot summer mid-morning. 

Here are pics and recipe in short. So I first washed and then cooked the grapes slightly in water. This makes them softer.

Next , I blended it and sieved it. Add Sugar and Chat masala as per taste.


 Enjoy !!

I felt really good after making it. I have decided to keep myself busy . Try new things , make some conscious changes in my life. During the day, I stop and think about all the things I have accomplished that day and pat myself on the back. This reminds me that I am capable of doing so many things efficiently. This boosts my moral. The wait is still a part of life , but now I try to see that it does not bog me down.

I thank my lord daily, for he is helping me discover so many things about myself. I know awesome things are in store for me.
