Spring Rejuvenation and Detoxification
It's only for a short period of time and from the moment I drink my first concoction, my mind is peaceful and thankful and I know shortly, my body will be as well.
With a family wedding just 7 weeks away, it is time anyway to lose the bloat and some pudge. Toned muscles can be a by-product - but more than these outward results and appearances, my main desire is healthy cells and organs inwardly with more energy and vitality.
I am blessed, in that I enjoy all the foods and drinks that I incorporate into my detox/cleansing regime. They are no different from what I consume regularly; except in a different formulation. I don't have any strict recipes, I just have knowledge of the herbs and foods that do the job I'm desiring, so I get creative and use some in one drink and then others in a salad etc. I like joy in the journey and my emotions and mind appreciate that freedom.
Today's lunchtime drink: Raw beet, celery, lemons with peeling, cucumber, fresh basil
- As often as possible, use organic veggies and fruit, especially if you use the peelings.
- Use the whole food. I don't 'juice' = extracting only the juice and discarding the pulp.
Can't detox/cleanse without lemons
- Use fresh picked herbs
- Use organic teas
These are a couple of my preferred teas; there are MANY. Try samples and choose ones you prefer.
- Use reverse osmosis water
My kitchen tool that I adore and don't want to live without:

Strawberry Basil Poppy Seed Balsamic Vinaigrette
"Strawberries are the angels of the earth, innocent and sweet with green leafy wings reaching heavenward"
~Jasmine Heiler~
Springtime in Central Florida brings the infamous Plant City Strawberries to every Farmer's Market and it's exciting to think about new recipes to create and new healthy dishes to enjoy!
On this first day of April, I desired a light vinaigrette for my salad so on the way home from Church, we found a new produce stand on Hwy 98N in Highland City, FL and decided to check it out.
2 quarts piled-highs of strawberries for $4.00 was not to be resisted so they became the fruit base for my new vinaigrette recipe.
Strawberry Basil Poppy Seed Balsamic Vinaigrette
I started with my base salad:
- Romaine Lettuce
- Fresh thinly sliced pear
- Cucumber
- Thinly sliced onion
- Thinly sliced red pepper
Vinaigrette Ingredients:
- 3/4 C Frangrante Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 dozen large Strawberries, washed and hulls removed
- 5 TBSP Balsamic Vinegar
- 3 TBSP Raw Organic Blue and White Agave Syrup
- 12 large freshly-picked Basil Leaves
- 1/4 medium-sized Onion
- 1.5 TBSP Poppy Seeds
- 1/4 TSP Spike
- 1/8 TSP Black Pepper
Steps:
1. Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor to blend slowly.
2. Check to see that all onion has been finely chopped and blended well into the liquid mixture. If not blended totally, set on a higher speed for 5 - 10 seconds.
Makes approximately 10-12 oz.
Pour vinaigrette over your salad.
* Optional: add walnuts or sliced almonds to top of salad for additional Omega 3 Essential Fatty Acids and Protein
If like me, you are more of a Vinaigrette-lover than a creamy dressing lover and you don't have the time to be inventive and creative, then you might enjoy this kindle version of Wonderful Vinaigrette. And GREAT news: If you don't have a kindle, as I don't, you can download Kindle for PC and read Kindle books on you r home PC or laptop! Now isn't that wonderful!? I think so!
More Vinaigrette Recipes & Products that you may enjoy:
And PLEASE, email me or comment on this blog how you liked the recipe, how you used it, how you may have altered it (no worries, I do this frequently!, that's the fun of it all!) etc. Love hearing from you!

Free Product Trial To Balance Blood Sugar
| For Stable, Secure Blood Sugar Levels |
 |
 |
Why is this important?
Fluctuating blood sugar (glucose) levels can lead to a variety of health problems from fatigue to sleep disruption to excess insulin production and serious metabolic dysfunction. Excess blood sugar can create a dangerous condition called insulin resistance in which your cells refuse to allow glucose to enter. Since glucose can only be metabolized (burned as fuel) inside the cell, the body is deprived of its main energy supply and fatigue can result.
Gluco-Secure is Dr. Pressman's unique blend of 7 plant extracts, minerals, antioxidants and metabolic enhancers that are document to help stabilize glucose levels within an optimally healthy range.

Ladies, Condition at Home. Become Toned & Fit With Bands
Ladies, its a given that we all want to look fabulous and feel good.
And it's also a given that such a look and feel take TIME.
Many are professionals outside the home and many are professionals inside the home; yes, you amazing stay-at-home moms and home-schooling-moms are simply amazing to me; you have my regard - thus TIME is precious, leaving many to simply not be able to go out to a gym to gain the conditioning workout they need.
Do you fall into one of those categories?
Well, I'm a busy entrepreneur with 5 irons in the fire as well, so I've chosen to do a lot of my strengthening workouts at home (along with my beagle, Bailey)
If you only have a ball, dumbells and a band, you are good to go!
I'm always on the lookout for new products to try and review and also to introduce to my clients and readers; especially QUALITY PRODUCTS for a GOOD PRICE to MAXIMIZE your time and workout.
Well, here's the newest and to boot, the inventor resides right here in Florida, a ways down the coast from me.
Curious now? Check this out!
Don't wait! Get started ~ and share your before and after photos with me!
How to NOT get organized
In our home, it is my husband who is the orderly one, not me. Mind you I try, but I can easily become overwhelmed and frustrated. No one is perfect, least of all me. Here are a few things you can do to NOT get organized. Have you tried any in the past?
1. Make excuses for the clutter by blaming the dog, kids, hubby. (wife)
2. Avoid having any company over at all. People will start to resent you but you will never have to face the reality of your clutter mess.
3. Hide everything under bed. Better yet, keep hiding stuff under there until the bed raises up off the floor, then move on to the guest bedroom. Your work here is done.
4. Shove all your paperwork, the kids toys and the laundry that needs folding into the hall closet, just make sure everyone knows to open at their own risk.
5. You could become a minimalist but, really, there is nowhere to hide anything.
6. You could become a nudist but that is never a pretty site. And, just because you don’t wear clothes doesn’t mean that you are organized. Naked, yes. Organized, no.
7. Throw all your bath supplies and extra towels on one shelf in the linen closet.
8. Shop at Sam’s Club like you have an extra room to store the stuff. You don’t and you are just delusional by even having a membership there.
9. In regards to your pantry, make sure to leave all the empty boxes, bags and containers on the shelf, like you have space to spare.
10. Let all the empty milk cartons and casserole dishes accumulate in the back of the fridge. It’s as good a place as any to store them, right?!
11. Be sure to have so many hiding spaces for clutter that you have no idea where you haven’t hidden anything.
12. Make sure you always buy duplicates because you can’t find the 1st one. Ever. No matter how hard you look. And, who doesn’t need 6 pairs of kitchen shears.
13. Use the stove for storage solution and then forget to take out the loaf of bread and the cinnamon rolls before pre-heating it.
14. Likewise for the microwave, be sure to forget that bag of chips was in there and accidentally turn on the microwave. Hello, flaming chips!
No one is perfect but this list should remind you that even the smallest amount of effort will insure that you, too, can do it.
