Hey All, a little Ginger love to get your day going!! Of course you can tell when T walks into the room, her eyes are all over him, I don't blame her, ha-ha!! :)
The day after Christmas, on our way home, we stopped at my favorite health food store for some juices! T and I both got a Lemon-made. This was lemon, ginger and apple. Perfect for a day after indulging! When I got home, I had to try out my Vitamix, Lafayette! I made some nog for T and I, this one had cashews, coconut milk, bananas, vanilla and cinnamon! The next morning I made a smoothie with persimmons, bananas, coconut milk, wheat grass powder, hemp seeds, flax seeds and chia seeds. Not having to deal with my ghetto blender is so relaxing! I forgot to mention another Christmas gift from T, this was technically in my stocking, so I think Santa left them. Raw chocolates from David Wolfe's company Sacred Chocolate. These are so smooth and yummy! I've tried a little piece from each over the past few days! One of them is 99% Cacao, eeeeek, it is bitter! Think I might have to use that one in a smoothie! Have a nice day everyone! I am going for my hot stone massage later! I am aiming for an all raw day today. Actually, just liquids till dinner. Lots of smoothies and juices, and coconut water of course!
No worries, I had to google this at first. You go to Edit HTML on the compose page on blogger then just paste the embedded link in from your youtube video. Right below the info on your video you will see it, copy it and paste it under the edit html tab, then go back to compose and finish your post. It won't show up until you finish posting your post. I hope this isn't to confusing!! HUGS! XOXO!
The Raw chocolates from David Wolfe's company Sacred Chocolate--news to me, love reading about new to me, products. Yum!
The Vita. Girl you're just gonna fall in love with it 100 times over. Every day even more :) LOL Smoothies look great. Wait til you start making raw food in it. It took me a few months to get up the courage b/c I didnt know anyone, didnt read blogs then, but once I figured out what I could make, endless options! Enjoy it as i know you are!
Ginger is just too adorable, Lauren! i just love how she listens to you and turns her head and such. awwwwwwww! hooray for all of your christmas goodies, too! a flip video, a super cute mat 'n nat bag, one rock'n hoodie, and a VITAMIX! squeeeeeeeeeeeee! looks like you've been putting it to some good use, too! oooh man - there's so much awesomeness go'n on - i love it all!
ginger is too cute. actually your voice is pretty cute too. the shelters better watch out because i might be there looking for a pug soon if she keeps up that cuteness.
You're so lucky to have vitamix! Thanks for inspiring me to go back to my smoothie habit. The persimmon and coconut smoothie sounds so delicious, can't wait to give it a try.
I'm so so jealous of you. How much fun to have a Vita-mix! All of those smoothies look so tasty.
Do you remember Bakers baking chocolates? I don't know if they still make them but growing up my girlfriend would take one and eat a square of the unsweetenedkind. yuck! It was exremely bitter. blah
