So here is my solution to these 99 degree days…and nights! Sheesh, I am not even kidding you. For some reason, the portable AC units are cancelling one another out so I can either run the one in our bedroom, or the one in the main area of the house…but not both. Last night, both the dog and I were panting. I am glad our week is going to see cooler temps starting tomorrow. Come on mid 80’s, which is still too hot for this fat suit. I am most comfortable at 75 to maybe 80 degrees. Anything above or below that and I am sharing my thoughts! (And it isn’t pretty.)
Anyway, these are my favorite hydrating no fuss smoothies. Add as much or as little as you like of the ingredients and add some ice. Or, simply add the ice to the blender if you are enjoying them right away.
Until next time, drink healthy and stay hydrated!

There is something magical about eating all of these wonderful plant-based foods. I cannot even begin to imagine going back to where we were only a short time ago. (Thirty-one days, to be exact!)
You can see the recipes for the photos above over on Pinterest by clicking here.
I do hope you find something that will inspire you to try one of them this week with your family. Oh! Quick tip: purchase the FIRM Tofu and dry it well with a paper towel prior to cooking. You want it as dry as possible…it helps make a crispy end product!
Happy health,
April
There for a while, I was writing my thoughts and feelings down in a notebook and then transferring them. Obviously that does not work well for this blog. (Funny, not funny.) This week was challenging in the way of Continue reading Day 31: Journal Entry

Since we have made the decision to eat more of a plant-based lifestyle, I find there are a lot of misconceptions out there. I have also found there are a lot of opinions about Vegan eating especially. In fact, I have to say, we are on day 22 and for the last 22-days I have heard the strangest things about eating. Now, I am a researcher. I sit at the computer for hours watching documentaries and reading article and studies. Rarely do I take the word of one person to be the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
When I was researching health, about a month ago, I did research the keto diet. I watched the Netflix documentary, The Magic Pill. You too can hop on the internet and explore the wild, wild world of health. Be careful though, at times I did feel like Alice falling down the rabbit hole!
We had some of the most flavorful meals this week! You can see all of the recipes we chose here which will redirect you to my pinterest page and all of the lovely meals we made.
I did make and use the Vegan Alfredo Sauce! The lasagna was creamy, dreamy and honest to goodness, neither Wes or myself missed the meat!
I do hope these help inspire you and until next time, eat well,

I thought, before I started this adventure, that I would be so hungry all of the time. I thought without meats I would Continue reading I am not starving…
I must say, this dish really surprised me! If you want the recipe click here. The sauce is dairy-free and tastes so much like cheese, I felt guilty for a moment! I pre-made the sauce, Sunday afternoon so it only took me about fifteen minutes to complete this one and again…so good!
If you enjoy pasta and cheese sauces…try this one! I highly recommend it!
We were both in the kitchen preparing sauces and dressings for our week of Vegan. We really liked the raw vegan and so far, the recipes we have chosen for this week look super amazing. I know, most of you who follow the blog understand that this is a trial Continue reading Feeling Saucy!
