In my post about Zak’s juice fast, a couple of you asked about some of his favorite juice recipes. Let’s just say that there has been a lot of experimenting on his part lately. He often makes what he calls “Kitchen Sink Juice”. I’m sure this title needs no explanation (but here I go anyway.) …

Go Ahead and Cry Over Spilled Beet Juice
May 18th, 2013 | Posted by in Vegetable Lovin' - (2 Comments)Yesterday was my 34th birthday. Thirty four. What a perfectly ordinary age. Although I think I’m officially in my “mid-30′s” now. How about “early in my mid-30′s”? That’s a little easier to swallow. Getting older isn’t so bad, it’s the looking older part that doesn’t thrill me. There are more gray hairs sprouting from the …

These are collard greens. These collard greens have been in my refrigerator for more than a week. My hesitation stems from the fact that I tried collards at a picnic over the summer, and they were awful. AWFUL!

Day 14 of The Greener March Challenge has been a particularly green day – mostly thanks to this almost-past-its-prime kale that I’m trying to work through before I have to surrender it to the compost bucket. NO, this glass is NOT my compost bucket, thankyouverymuch. (I think those tulips are going to take a trip …

We’re 10 days into The Greener March Challenge. ARE WE HAVING FUN YET?! Greens today came in the form of green juice that I made and drank 45 minutes before I left for a run. We’ve had the Breville Juice Fountain Plus for about three and a half years now. I still love this little …

My biggest gal turned 9 years old today. NINE! I guess that means I must have been 16 when she was born because I can’t possibly be a day over 25 myself. (What?) Ava’s birthday breakfast request was bagels, and so bagels it was. After Deep Nutrition, bagels became more of a treat around here – this …

The Greener March Challenge, Day 4! Today’s green round up started with an avocado (and spinach) smoothie that was so awesome I was forced to share. I eventually had to get out a bib and strap him into his seat because this “sharing” of my smoothie was getting out hand. (We’re going to revisit this …
