I go through phases when I juice everyday… and other phases when I don’t juice at all. But overall, I love juicing–it makes me feel like I’m starting the day out right (I always do it in the morning). Smoothies are good too, but because of the types of things I want to put in …
I go through phases with what I eat, and how I eat it. I’ve always been this way—I find something I like, and then I eat it until I’m sick of it and need a break. A few years ago, I went through a major smoothie phase, and then I dropped them for a while, …
The other night when I was at my Mom’s house, I was really craving a cocktail, and I came up with this… Back in the old days (2001) when I lived in Boston, my drink of choice was vodka and cranberry juice. This pomegranate KeVita with vodka reminded me of those Cape Cod beverages… except …

This post is the continuation of one I wrote a few weeks ago and about what detoxing and cleansing really are and what you need to know. In that post, I wanted to explain what it actually means to detox, and to discuss how it has become trendy to cleanse or detox, but that often …

I had a really busy weekend, and just have a couple things to share with you. I worked out several times, and am currently icing my achilles. I don’t know, maybe I jumped over/on too many tractor tires with my trainer this morning, but he didn’t seem to think so! On Friday night, I met …

Every time I’ve visited my relatives in California, I leave planning to figure out my life so I can move here. I considered going to college out here too, but somehow my plan has never happened. Now, although I can easily be re-swept away by “the feeling” (as my mom and I call it when …
A few years ago, when I moved to Pittsford, I was enthralled with the Pittsford Wegmans—it was a bit overwhelming at first, but I got into a groove there quickly, and made almost daily trips (after all, I lived 0.24 miles away!). Shortly after I began shopping there, I noticed the produce department had all …

I really needed this today: And This: And This: Just kidding, I didn’t have that last one. But I could go for one right now. I went to the gym early this morning, after an hour or so of work. Then I met a friend at a hot yoga class and we went to Starbucks …
I decided to re-word my focus for the title of the second smoothies/juice post compared to the first one, The Great Debate: Smoothies vs. Juice because I really do want to take the edge off the debate aspect of this topic. Smoothies and Juice 1. They’re two different things 2. They really shouldn’t be pitted …
