Day 4 Love Your Greens

I am spending this evening downloading many MANY ebooks from the Ultimate Homemaking ebook bundle- sorry the deal expired tonight- I waited till practically the last minute as to whether I wanted it or not.  There are at least 3 books in the pack I REALLY wanted so I figure it might actually be worth it plus it was a great deal (95% off).  I know that has nothing to do with the challenge I just have to keep explaining why my posts are always shorter than I would like them to be. 

Weight- 145 BMI-28
Feeling:  good, a little sore from I am not sure what, my throat hurts a little and my ears seem stuffy but I don't feel bad

Today's smoothie was so interesting.  It was different because it didn't have banana.  This one was called Delicious Detox smoothie.  This was what we used for the recipe: water, kale and spinach mix, the juice of one lime, 2 cups of canned pineapple that had been frozen, a frozen avocado, a few shakes of ginger from the spice rack (it called for fresh but I don't think I am ready to spring for that yet), and cilantro (I put in 1/3 cup).  Thank goodness we all like cilantro.  It does not taste like soap to us.  In fact, Hermione said she couldn't taste it.  She said it tasted like pineapple.  I was worried because of the avocado.  I don't like avocado but I heard that mixing it in a smoothie just makes it creamy and you can't taste it.  Good thing because it was great.  I thought it tasted like a healthy lemonade.  I might actually use lemon juice next time.  It was tart but I got use to it after a few sips.  The baby didn't get this one.  She was napping and I was a little worried about the detox side affects.  So far there does not seem to be anyone having any side affects so I think we are good. 

Oh!  I also went out and bought new smoothie cups from the Dollar Store.  Check them out!
