I finally bit the bullet and joined Twitter

I am blogging about the experience (and other stuff) over at ShelleySaid.com … but I just really GOT the whole social media thing and the power of the people. I know it’s crazy… most of you probably already get it… but I never did. I blog lots, and get some traffic, but I work hard for that traffic. You are here reading this because of hours and hours and hours of work, surfing the internet, commenting on blogs, adding value when I can, joining communities like IOWA Ave and blog catalog (see my sidebar).

It’s all well and good, I’ve enjoyed the work, so yeah it’s been a lot of fun and I have met some COOLEST people! I love jornalling about health issues, and sharing stories and recipes. So today while I was pondering Twitter, I thought,… here we have, more than any other time in the history of HISTORY, an opportunity to really INFLUENCE people from our own little corner of the world. We have the opportunity, through social media, to express our views, and make them understood in places we have only read about before. Read the rest of this entry »

My husband’s cousin Rob and his wife Cheryl stopped over last evening on their way to Boston.  I whipped up breakfast in the blender to send them healthfully on their way.

We also got talking about CODEX and the far reaching implications. I am including a link to my article on CODEX. (as a reminder… CODEX will make our vitamins and supplements illegal, and mandate irradiation of our food supply. TIME is running out on CODEX. The time is NOW to start lobbying government officials)

Cheryl’s Boston Smoothie

In the Blender

• 1 cup frozen 4 berry blend
• 2 ripe bananas
• 1 ripe pear
• a glop of flax seed oil
• 1/2 cup yogurt 

In the juicer

• 6 large carrots
• 2 granny smith apples

Pour juice into blender and blend.

This recipe made 3 large glasses full.

Now for CODEX…. please go read my post on CODEX and be AWARE and then be ACTIVE! This is important for our continued good health!

If you are like me, your tastebuds have fought back against the unique flavor of a green smoothie. It hasn’t been easy to find the right combination but today I hit it, and I think I have liberated myself from the daily green battle!

I hope you enjoy this as much as I did, because there is no arguing… the health benefits of green are unbelievable!

Use your juicer to extract the juice from

• 4 large handfuls of baby spinach
• 1/2 head celery
• 2 granny smith apples
• 1 fresh lime quartered

put half a pineapple (peeled and cored of course) into a blender, pour the juice over it and blend.

Serve over ice. YUMMY! Fills 3 large glasses 

As simple as this recipe sounds, my biggest struggle to date has been to find a green smoothie that I can drink that doesn’t taste …. well… GREEN I guess! This is fruity and delicious and oh so green!
