A Healthy Drink & A Shabby Chic Sneak Peek

 Hi all!
I hope everyone had a great weekend.
I wanted to share a healthy drink with you and a photo shoot
sneak peek.
HGTV 1 117_1
Here are some shots from a Shabby Chic project I did a few weeks
ago for a feature that I hope to soon share with you.
HGTV 1 065_1On another note…
I am on a serious health kick lately.
Now that I have 2 boys, I want to be healthy and strong for them.
Something about having children that makes you
want to live forever. I go on a walks with them everyday and I am watching what I eat.
I got this idea from a local health food store and I just changed it a bit.
It is really easy and quick.
I drink one a day.
Green Monster 082_1Ingredients
One bunch of parsley
One bunch of kale
3 cucumbers
One bunch of celery
One bunch of spinach
3 apples
Green Monster 0799
Rinse all the veggies and fruit. Put through a Juicer.
The apple is what I added to it. It will take away the bitter
taste of the raw green veggies and  it gives the drink a sweet taste.
It is REALLY healthy for you!
Did you know that Kale helps the fight against Cancer???
Here’s to your health!
Have a wonderful start to your week!

    thanks for the info! i was hoping you didn't mean a bunch like how it comes from the store. you would need a serious amount of veggies for that! happy juicing and great health to you!

    hugs,

    Best dish to eat at night camps. As well as very easy to prepare with the help of your steps by step suggestions. It is very delicious and too much testy dish.

    This looks like something I would like to try. The apples makes me think it should taste pretty good and I'm sure it would be very good for my body.
