i think that i eat pretty healthy. in fact, people at work say i'm "different" because i eat yogurt, fruit, lean meats and fiber crackers on a daily basis. the truth is i'm not a big green veggie fan. sure, give me sweet potatoes anytime (esp. loaded with marshmallows, haha) but greens, no thanks.

recently i've decided to go to a nutritionist. he suggested that i give "green smoothies" a try. it sounds gross but i broke down and had one. i'm so delighted that it turned out sooo good.

there are a ton of recipes online but i did this one:

2 cups of spinach
1 banana
1/2 cup of low fat vanilla yogurt
1 tsp flaxseed
dash of cinnamon
1 packet of truvia

you seriously can't taste the spinach. i think next time i'll try to include some ice so it's extra frothy. i'm not sure my blender can handle it though.

next on the list to make:
apple and cinnamon
mint and cocoa
pineapple and banana

wow. these bags from eclu are gorgeous. in fact, i hear them saying "birthday present" :)

on the agenda this month - designing and sending out save the dates. i made progress tonight and found stamps :)

i can't wait to make these grilled chicken and avocado napoleons. giada seriously made my mouth water and it seems simple enough to make.

a friend of mine invited me to join her book club, tits and titles (haha). anyway, our first book is Pride and Prejudice. i wish that could have been a November read so i would have been able to buy Coralie Bickford-Smith's version of the jacket. these classic book covers are so graphic and inspiring.

look at this charming little house in pikesville. consta and i are going to look at it tomorrow. it needs a little tlc but, think of the possibilities. i hope it won't be too late for us to make a move - if that's what we decide to do. we have a long way to go to be on our way to buying a house. ugh, like we need a real estate agent and pre approval first, haha.
