Easy Wondrous Watermelon Smoothie

20130715-130737.jpg

Here’s a easy simple watermelon smoothie recipe. 3 ingredients! Watermelon, ice, mint leaves. You can use your discretion but I used about 2 cups of watermelon, 2 mint leaves, 1.5 cups of ice. Add more or less as you please.

The key to this recipe is the order you put your ingredients in the blender. If you don’t have a decent high speed blender, have your mint leaves on bottom, then ice, then watermelon. Happy Blending!

Motivational Monday: A Tuesday Post

Yesterday I went to a very special place in Maryland’s nature. I call it special because there was hardly anyone there, well, except for a few fisherman. Story, on that later. In the meantime, as the men fished, I sat on the pier and watched tiny little fish swim by. As they swam, I noticed something. A fish no longer than my pinky finger was creating ripples in the water 1-3 feet out, in all directions.

It reminded me that every action that we take, every thought, every lazy moment, like the fish, creates a ripple. We are constantly sending out signals to the universe of what we want, and what we’ll attract.

The thing about the fish though was, whether or not it wanted to have this effect was irrelevant. As a direct reaction to the action of movement, more movement (waves) were created. So a very simple reminder to self, every action I take creates ripples (responses), whether you see it or not.  You can attract more of a good thing or more of a bad thing its my choice. I choose good!! What kind of ripples will you send out today??

Juice Chronicles: Carrot Kicker

Hey, just thought i’d share a very simple and easy juice recipe with you. Its one of the first recipes I learned, and my go to, simply for its cheap ingredients. What you’ll need? Simple, apples, carrots, ginger.

You really dont need a lot of apples, as they are really sweet so 2 might enough depending on how many carrots you have. Use ginger according to taste. 1inch is usually enough for most people but if youre like me, 2-3 inches is more like it. This last juicing round, I did a whole bag of organic carrots, 4 apples, 2 inches of ginger. Bon Appetite! Any questions, post below..
