THIRSTY THURSDAYS: OOGAVE Organic Soda


You dont have to give up on soda... there are healthier alternatives and OOGAVE organic sodas definitely delivers.

They have all kinds of flavors from Strawberry Rhubarb to Ginger Ale and Watermelon Cream. Im partial to watermelon creme myself.

Ive only been able to find them in higher priced health food stores (Fresh Market, Moms Organic Market, and Wegmans).







A little pricey so I only treat myself to these once a month. $5.99 for 4 bottles... yikes! But on a hot Spring day lol like today in Baltimore its perfect with a cold cut sub and Pop chips.

WOW WEDNESDAYS: EASY, CHEAP, and QUICK Breakfast Smoothies


Soooo sometimes like most people my funds get low. Even so I still want to eat healthy. Breakfast smoothies are best with fresh fruits and organic greek yogurt and those items can be expensive. But that's no excuse to not make them because there are alternative ways to make a quality healthy smoothie. Here is my favorite quick, cheap, and easy smoothie.














flax seed from local Food Co Op





about 3 whole strawberries sliced, 3 tablespoons of yogurt, 13-15 spinach leaves, 1/4 cup of the Bolthouse, 1 tablespoon of flax seed










BOTTOMS UP!

Preakness 2013: thru photos


The 138th running of the Preakness stakes at Pimlico Race Track was this Saturday. I actually live right down the street from the track so I hosted the pre and post Preakness. Here are some pics from the day. The crew included my brother, Nikki and Elijah ( newly married), Joe (Elijah's brother), Syd, and Gina (future sis in law). Macklemore and Ryan Lewis performed and Pitbull. There was a "mug club" hence the green mugs. Unlimited amount of beer. We still purchased shots of yager and fireball with the sexy bartender below. We got really drunk, ate delicious food, made friends with all the staff members and danced in the rain. One of the best more perfect days ever. A video will be posted of the days events as well but here are some shots.

So in Love...



                When Words run dry,
                    he does not try,
          nor do I.

      We are on par.

He just is,
             I just am
                        and we just are.
