Spring has finally sprung here in Michigan. I was starting to wonder if I was ever going to see the sun shine for longer than an hour. So while many are plotting their strategies for their gardens and starting to make summer plans, I’m dusting off the blenders and getting back in to the grove of smoothie creation. Â One thing I am not thrilled about is the sensitive tooth pain I have been battling for quite a few years. [Read more…]
Create Your Own Juice Detox
After purchasing a bottle of a popular juice detox for $30 many, many years ago and reading the list of ingredients, I learned it was only a juice fast with a fancy label. I did drop a few pounds, but it was hard to only drink juice for a day. I had a headache and felt weak and tired. I am told this is normal for some, but it is a feeling I don’t like.

This recipe was one of the first I ever posted online and it was one of the first pieces that earned me income for publishing online (for recipes, not for other content/writing.)Â [Read more…]

Are we already in to the middle of January? Wasn’t it just Christmas a few days ago? I sure wish time would slow down for me, just a little bit. I have so many projects going on that I feel like I don’t have enough hours in my day. One thing I always have time for is a good smoothie. It’s no secret how much I love a good smoothie. When it’s cold out though, I need a little help. Sometimes you just need a little help from your friends, right? I wish my friends could help me finish up my next smoothie recipe book. I feel like I have been working on it forever. Rome wasn’t built in a day, right? I’ve published a lot of fiction (almost 40 titles!) under a pen name, so self-publishing ain’t no big thing…but, let me tell you, trying to write a recipe book is completely different. [Read more…]
Vanilla Chia Seeds
Are you wondering what to do with those chia seeds?
I know when I purchased my first bag I had no idea what I was going to do with them. I kept seeing all these great pudding style recipes on Pinterest and other folks using them in their smoothies. I’m still mastering the art of chia seeds but I wanted to share a really simple hacked I learn. [Read more…]
