Cleanse & Food Log – {Day 7}
Yahooooo! I made it to the final day of the raw cleanse!!! Which also means, the final day of taking that GRASSY drink. LOL! Okay….overall summary of the cleanse… As much as I did not enjoy drinking the green, gritty, grassy drink (taken 1 hour before you go to bed), this cleanse was actually very [...]
Cleanse & Food Log – {Day 5}
YAY — only 2 more days left! I was sooooo excited seeing only 2 packets left on my counter this morning. LOL. The cleanse itself was good. Nothing much different to report today — still have good amount of energy and feeling great overall. The 3rd step was not as easy to get down today [...]
Cleanse & Food Log – {Day 2}
We’re moving right along! Day 2 of the raw cleanse – check! Eating healthy food – check! The cleanse was easier to handle today. And I’m glad! I’m hoping it gets easier and easier as the week progresses along. The hardest step for me to do is the last step. But thanks to my friend, [...]
Cleanse & Food Log – {Day 1}
I made it through my first day of doing the Raw Cleanse! The Raw Cleanse consists of 3 steps – 1) Toxin Defense 2) Organ Detox and 3) Digestion & Elimination. The first two steps were not bad at all. But the third step was ROUGH, taste wise. It involved mixing two scoops of the [...]

Yesterday, I made my first turkey ever! Yeah, I know…surprising, ain’t it?? Especially for a mom with a 10yo! LOL. But I’ve been spoiled with parents, in-laws, and friends who are excellent cooks and who have all cooked the turkey on Thanksgiving. :D But if I want to teach my child(ren) how to cook it for [...]
GF Chocolate Chip Cookies
Over the weekend, I found a gluten-free chocolate chip cookie recipe that I could not resist trying. I substituted the sugar with coconut sugar and rapadura. Not bad! My first batch of cookies came out really thin. My second batch (above image) was much better, but I still would’ve liked it a little thicker. I used [...]
Peanut Butter/Banana Kefir Smoothie
So who’s up for a new kefir smoothie recipe??? If you like peanut butter, chocolate and banana, then you’ll really enjoy this recipe from www.yourkefirsource.com. I adjusted the ingredients slightly by adding some honey to sweeten it a little more and also replacing the flaxseed with coconut flour. Yummmmmm! You can find the original recipe on [...]
Getting Healthy & Smoothie Recipe
Back in June, I posted my “Confessions of a Health Food Junkie” post. This was a very personal post to share regarding how I have not been eating as wisely as I should. Although I wasn’t eating conventional junk food, I was eating food that wasn’t the most ideal – organic junk food. I ended [...]
