POTD?

Not sure this qualifies as POTD posts any longer but here we go:

Goji Berry Lemonade

Goji Ginger Lemonade
Serves 1
Ingredients:
2 Tbsp. goji berries
1 ½ cups water
1 tsp. ginger root, freshly grated
½ lemon, juiced
raw honey to taste (optional)

Directions:
1. Soak goji berries in water for at least one hour to soften.
2. Pour goji berries and soak water into a blender with remaining ingredients, blend on high until completely mixed.
3. Strain and pour into a glass with plenty of ice and lemon slices.

Recipe found here with health benefits explained. I have made this lemonade several times over since Friday and it is great. I recommend you buy some goji berries and get started.

When I first started this blog I had a much different idea for what it would be. I was torn between just sharing things I loved/hated on in a brutally honest tone and a food blog of sorts. In reality my blog turned out to be neither of those things. I hardly write anything on here and mostly use this as a place to share my photos and Florida style adventures. I guess with all things it just takes time to evolve and discover the real aim/voice.

I read a ton of food blogs and have been on a kick lately to put better things in my body. I love several newly found sites which I have added to the Blog list on my side bar. I feel good mentally and physically and while I never take horrible care of myself I do have a tendency to waver back and forth between caring and not taking the time to care. I am a very active person and I just feel better when I am eating well. For me this is a personal belief and should not come off as preachy at all. There are endless resources out there for how to take care of yourself and I believe the only way to be successful is for it to be a lifestyle and not a "diet" or temporary plan. I also believe anything in moderation is ok but some people lack a true grasp of what moderation is. Quality of life is much more important than quantity of life.

POTD Lost Track of numbers

I have mentioned this before but to any newcomers, I can be a flake. Now that I have made a general statement about myself I do not need to apologize for losing track of the days or not posting every day...right?!

POTD 6 and 7

The sun gets high in the sky early these days and I am a slow mover in the morning time. It isn't even 9:30 and we have full staggering sunlight on my block. These pictures would be nicer lighting had they been taken 2 hours earlier, but not much gets me out walking the dog at 7am.
