Green Week picts and books on tape

Happy Wednesday folks!

How is your Earth Week going? Are you helping Mother Earth take a much needed load of her stressful shoulders. I hope so, and I hope you don't stop once Sunday rolls around. Just remember that every little change makes a difference! And you know what? Saving the planet can be delicious. You think we eat "rabbit food" and that it's plain and tasteless? Check out my blogroll and you will be pleasantly surprised at how delicious and creative food can really be. We have to change our mindset people! We need to think outside the box and to not go with the flow of society. Going with the flow means...fake emotions, fast food, being someone you aren't, being pumped with drugs that don't work, and on and on. We need people to break away from this mold and to be who they are deep down inside and to connect with nature once again. Do your dig me? Okay, I'm off my soap box now...let's talk about some food.

As you may already know, Meghan Telpner's tutorial 5 Days Healing with Everyday Superfoods is taking place this week. As I am the lucky owner of this tutorial, I've been reading and following along with a few of her amazing recipes. After my morning TT workout yesterday (anyone love burpees?...ya, 8 rounds of these bad boys and I hate them! which means I really love them after its all said and done:) I made Meghan's Super-powered Breakfast smoothie, which she so kindly posted about here. It was delish and a new experience for me as I usually am very plain-jane when it comes to my smoothies -greens, fruit, cinnamon, and Vega. It was really good and had me filled right up! I made a few changes to include what I had on hand. I didn't have any goji's, I used almond butter instead of almonds, and I used cacao powder instead of nibs.

Beautiful color and so nutritionally dense...mmm!

A little proof for the Green Week Challenge that I actually drank my green monster:)

Later on in the morning I made Meghan's Superhero Balls. Oh boy! These were so rich and delicious.

Check out those white chia seeds and the rich cacao..yum!


RICH..in 15 minutes:)

For Lunch I had a lovely salad with avocado and sprouts. I made Kelli's Sweet Lime Cilantro Dressing. You have to make this..sooo good!

Ingredients ready to become dressing goodness!

Just a little bit left.I devoured most of it:)

Green power, baby!

I am also chugging along in my study of The Language of medicine. I'm trying to get an edge for when I get into ND school:) It felt so good to read and feel the hot sun..ahh. I also drank some ginger tea.

Terminology anyone? The first chapter was all about suffixes and combining terms. A lot of info but I feel like I learned a lot already!

I also wanted to show you how the veggie babies are doing. I love watching them grow everyday:)


Can't wait to plant these babies in the garden! I hope my green thumb stays green..lol!

I finally made it to Breaking Dawn in the Twilight Saga. I read New Moon like mad fire and was so excited to get Breaking Dawn from the library but someone had already taken it out...boo! As I didn't want to go buy it or wait for the person to return it, I decided to get it on audio somewhere. It's definitely a different experience. I'm not sure if I will do it again as I find I try to do other things when the voices are talking. When I have to read the words for myself, I need to concentrate hard so I can get the "feel" of the book and its characters. It's fun at the same time though as I am flying through the chapters:) Do you ever get books on tape? I'm thinking they would be great if I had a long bus or car trip to go on.

Have a great day!
