Day One: Green Smoothie

Master O went back to school today.
He was only there for 2 hours before he was home again 
with an upset tummy.
So production in the work room is going slow.

Here is a peak at a few things I worked on over the school holidays.

 
Fairy Sprite Headbands, Hair clips, Pixies in new colours plus I dyed a load of felt.

Today is day one of my cleanse.

Here is the recipe for the green smoothie that I had for lunch.

GREEN SMOOTHIE
1 cup almond milk
1 cup of water
1 cup or more of  Kale or Spinach
1 tablespoon of Chia seeds
1 scope of Protein Powder
1/4 teaspoon of Cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon of Cardamon
1/4 teaspoon of Nutmeg
1 Apple
1 Banana
Juice of one orange

All blended up.
It was yummy

The Beach

No matter what time of year it is I just love the beach.
I don't think that I could ever live happily far away from a beach.
The sand, the sea, the sky its all so restful to my soul.


Only 3 days of the school holidays are left.
The time just goes so quickly.

We spent a week at my parents and they spoiled us with
amazing home cooked meals, so next week its time for a cleanse.

For the last few years August has been my cleansing month.
So tomorrow I am stocking up on juicing goods all ready for Monday. 
I am starting slightly early
this year (My jeans are a little tight!)

I found this wonderful board to help me with my green smoothies.

The Good Stuff



The Auckland Art and Craft Show was great.
I met some wonderful people.
Thank you if you stopped by to say hello and thank you if you bought one of my designs.

The good news is that you will be seeing my designs in more stores around New Zealand.

Just today I posted off a new order to a lovely store in Christchurch called
Petal
They will be stocking some of my Hydrangea range.
