I am a smoothie junkie. Smoothies are the perfect meal on the go, snack, breakfast, treat and indulgence. I love to serve smoothies when friends come over and they are also the only way I can get my man to eat something in the morning. I love how one glass can be jam packed with goodness. When I am feeling a little off I search my freezer and fridge then toss together a smoothie. They also help me when I need to keep my weight in check.
Since friends and family have asked me countless times to send them some inspiration I decided to put together a little smoothie guide. I spent the past few days making smoothies and taking photos. I hope that you can use this to get some new ideas and change up your favorite smoothies.
Well that is it for this week! Eat something real tasty this weekend (and make a few smoothies)! Hope you have a lovely weekend and for all my readers on the other side of the Atlantic... happy Canada day & happy 4th of July! xx - Joanna

Inside the card says: I forgot to say "I love you". First card (or anything else creative) I've been able to manage in quite some time! Hopefully we'll find a rhythm and routine with our new situation and I'll be able to find more time for "fun" stuff!

Thank you... thank you... thank you... !!!
Mon - I love pineapple and spinach! The perfect way to start the day. Today I had loads of spinach, raspberries, blackberries, goji berries, blueberries, buckthorn, lemon, parsley and water. Sooooo good. Feel like I gave my body the boost it needs on the rainy Monday morning.

Great pics, though I’m not one to jump in on veggie-based smoothies. I’m more of the sweet fruit kind, but wow, I bet your friends would love coming over if you serve them those!
