Green Drinks 101

This Christmas my parents and in-laws bought me a Vita-mix.  I had been wanting one for awhile, but just couldn't justify buying it since I had a normal blender and a set of the ninja blenders.  We traveled quite a bit after Christmas, so when I returned from my travels I was determined to start eating healthier and start using my new vita-mix.  Since January13th I have made it a habit to make a green smoothie every morning (with the exception of when I am out of town).  I found that I have so much more energy when I start my day off right.  I dont have a specific recipe that I use, but I do have a few staples that I keep in my fridge, and then I add whatever fruits or veggies I have lying around.  I thought I would share with you some of my tips and tricks to making a delicious green smoothie. 

       

products i like:
coconut water || flaxseed oil || coconut oil || greek yogurt || frozen berries
pure acai || pure pommegranate juice

Do you have any green smoothie recipes?  I'd love for you to share them with me!

CeCe Paints at the Beach

 

If you live at the beach you can now find the best ALL NATURAL, NO VOC, Chalk and Clay Furniture Paint in your area.  NEST is fairly new to Jacksonville Beach, and if you haven't stopped in you will want to ASAP.  The shop owner Kerry is so sweet and helpful, and she has brought the coastal style found in the panhandle(where she grew up) over to Jacksonville Beach.  Along with great furniture and accessories, NEST offers custom monogramming, embroidering and a great selection of children's clothes to personalize.

With all this talk of the beach, I have been craving beach weather, and I think it is showing in my painting.  I recently painted this cute beachy side table and I love the way it turned out.
