A Surprising Spring Smoothie.

Can you believe it’s been over a month since my last blog post? :-0 I can’t! The weeks are seeming to fly by quicker and quicker these days.

As the weather is getting warmer, I have been starting to crave fruit, yogurt, and fresh herbs. This cold, creamy drink is a perfect combination of these flavors. Let me know how to like it!

Spa Water

Whenever I go to a spa or hotel, I love having fruit infused spa water, it makes drinking water so fun and colorful! So, I decided to try to make it on my own. Most fruit works for this, except I think these don’t taste the best: cantaloupe, coconut, blueberries, tomatoes, grapes and banana. But really, it’s just your personal preference.pinapple water
