Yummy Muffins!!

All I can say is YUM! Everyone in the house likes them, including Storm of course. I made two kind of muffins from my apple, spinach, parsley, carrot, celery juice that I made this morning for breakfast. The purple wrappers have banana, cranberries and walnuts added while the green wrappers have pineapples and raisins mixed in. The pineapple raisins weren't as "full" looking, I'm guessing from the added juice from the pineapple. Also I made two banana walnut mini loaves.

Time for a Change

I have invested in a powerful juicer and am ecstatic! When it first arrived in the mail, I juiced the whole weekend through and plus more. My energy level was up and I felt great. NOW of course me being one not to waste and always trying to get the most nutrients possible. I have started baking with the juice pulp and it is out of this world! I've been baking  carrot, apple, beet, ginger, celery loaves with some added cranberries and walnuts.  Delicious I must say. I'll keep you all posted on my mini muffins that I'm making this weekend.

Cherry Blossoms in NJ

Well the Holidays are long gone and now it's my favorite season, Spring! The Cherry Blossoms bloomed early this year and are beautiful. If you are in the NJ area, you have to make it a must your way over to visit Branch Brook Park. The park has 4,000 Cherry Blossoms, the most in the nation! Yup right here in my backyard of Essex County.
