The morning grind is real…yo.

Every morning it’s a mad rush to get up, dressed, kids up and dressed, everyone fed breakfast, teeth brushed, and kid’s school bags packed. By the time we’re running out of the door there’s almost always one thing missing…a lunch for myself.

Before I got pregnant Angelo & I brought the MagicBullet to the office and would make smoothies a couple times a week for lunch. We would bring a bunch of bananas, a pint of strawberries, carton of almond milk, and a jar of peanut butter. Over load on banana-peanut butter smoothies and our smoothie game got boring and tired real fast. We would always have left over fruit in the office fridge, then come Monday everything would be rotten.

Then, I got pregnant and wanted nothing to do with anything except carbs for a good 3 months.

Now that my appetite is pretty much back to normal, smoothies are also back!
This time around I was determined to not make them boring, so I’ve been investing 30 minutes of my time at the beginning of every week to make these perfect frozen smoothie packs.

All the Details on our Kitchen Remodel

I want to start off and let you know I had to google what the difference between a ‘remodel’ and ‘renovation’ is for this post. A remodel is making changes to the structure, while a renovation is more like a restoration. Now that we’re all in the know on that, I’m...

Toasted S’more Espresso Martini

Espresso Martinis have taken this generation by the hand and led us to a land where we don’t have to choose between coffee and alcohol on a night out on the town. LOL! It’s a drink that makes heads turn and the entire table will order one as soon as they’re mentioned....
