Today is day two of my smoothie craze. I woke up, had some tea and got my fruits ready to be “smoothied”. There’s nothing like having fresh, juicy and flavorful fruits first thing in the morning. It’s refreshing, soothing and sort of exciting. It’s exciting because not only do fruits taste incredible, but they also

Who doesn’t like to switch their vegetables up? I know I do! It gets pretty old to eat the same thing…like just eating carrots, or just eating cherry tomatoes, or just eating kale.
