Yes, I've Got the Juice!

OK, so you all might think that I am crazy since I wrote a Love Letter to my Air Fryer, but I'm here to tell you that insanity is not over. I'm hungry now, so I've been thinking about some of my other kitchen favorites. I have been incorporating them into my daily routine, and although I might have a million problems, food preparation is not one of them! Although I have been using one on and off for years, I have to say that I love my current blender. Well, it's actually just a single use cup that blends. I have a personal smoothie maker, and it gets the job done! I love using it because it's so easy to clean and store. I can make just enough of a smoothie to chug one down some good stuff for a snack.

Now, I have to admit, that my small smoothie blender isn't perfect, and it does frustrate me once in a while when I cram in too many frozen fruits and ice for it to handle. No, it isn't perfect. It needs a bit more power, but it's okay. I might have to scrape frozen stuff from the blades when they won't turn around, but I always end up with a delish smoothie at the end of that drama (and I forgive the little bugger for being annoying). Maybe there's a tie between my love or strong like for my smoothie maker and my juicer! Yes, ya'll, I'm trying to live a healthier lifestyle, so I blend up smoothies and juice up fruits and vegetables, too!

I swear, that it doesn't take a long time to do, especially since my smoothie maker is so small and easy to maintain. The juicer, I have a big mouth juicer, is easy to use, but cleaning it is one of the most annoying things ever! Fruit pulp gets stuck in it, and I literally have to scrub it out. But… all of that pain-in-the-butt scrubbing is forgiven when I drink that smooth, sweet, pulp-free carrot apple juice (which needs absolutely no sugar at all). So, I also have a love-hate relationship with my juicer. I still highly recommend putting one in your life, because if you clean it shortly after you use it, you won't eve care too much about the fruit scrap that you have remove. I put a small bag in the area where the majority of the fruit scraps are discharged, so I could just through that away after each use. I mix leafy green vegetables with my fruits, so I'm finally able to eat my vegetables without my fried chicken. With a blender and a juicer, you too will finally be able to get all

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
