Here’s a quick juice recipe that I really enjoyed earlier this week. I don’t love beets yet. Still need to keep eating them until I do. My neighbor gave me some of his famous beets–4 large ones with tons of greens attached. I saved the beets for another use, plus they keep much longer than […]
Cucumber Melon Kiwi Juice
I was going to take a new, pretty picture of this juice, but alas, I did not. It’s so good I slurp it down too quickly. I am still juicing at least once a day most days. I love drinking my veggies–packing as many into my day as possible. It makes me feel better. So […]
Eat Vegan On $4 A Day: Peanut Butter Smoothie

Lavender Limeade
I wish I could convey in words how much I love lavender. I really, really, really love lavender. In our home you will find: lavender shampoo and conditioner, hand/body soap, dish soap, perfume, aftershave, baby oil, lotion, and diaper ointment. We are lavender fiends! Two summers ago, when I was on a Kouing Aman binge […]
