Days 7 and 8

 

Well, the pattern seems to be that my 365 project is going to go up every other day LOL.  I was going to post last night, but I was sooo tired!

Day 7:

Aunt Shan asked me to take a picture of an orange Gerber for her.  That appeared to be a bigger task than I had originally thought! Either they are very popular around her or they are very rare LOL because I could not find one anywhere! I finally found ONE at Costco (which by the way is the BEST place to buy flowers! I got three Gerbers for 10 bucks!)

So, Here it is Aunt Shan! And…It is my most favorite one!!

Here are a few more…This pink one was really different!

This one was Olivia’s favorite and she was very insistent that it go in the cart LOL! She loves to shop for flowers!

DID I MENTION I LOVE GERBERS?!! I wish my whole yard was a field of Gerbers!

 

Okay Day 8:

I mentioned before that I have been on a little bit of a smoothie kick lately.  Well, I have decided to get a little more adventurous, and use smoothies as a meal replacement for lunch and some breakfasts.  Smoothies are perfect for these hot days we have been having and Most of the Protein Smoothies are almost 40 oz of pure goodness for only 5 points!!

I know, it looks delicious right?! Well, now I get to tell you what was in it:

2 handfuls of Spinach

Approx. 1 Tblsp Minced Basil

2-3 cups of Pineapple

Fat Free Milk to Smoothness (about 1 cup)

Splenda for sweetner if you wish

this recipe came from: A FOODIE STAYS FIT the exact link wouldn’t work for some reason, but if you go to her website, you will find a tab labeled recipes. : ) (Hover the name of her blog and click)

I know it doesn’t sound very good, but it was DELICIOUS!! : ))
