Yogis...

There's nothing like Saturday morning yoga. One of the great ways to relax the mind, body, and spirit. There is no limit to what you can create when you set your mind to it, your body is limitless.

I practice my yoga at http://www.bayfrontparkmiami.com/pages/yoga/html, and what a beautiful atmosphere it is. Classes are held Mon. & Wed. at 6pm and Saturday Mornings at 9am. I love this friendly outdoor location right next to the water where the breeze runs through and invigorates your body and mind.

Yoga is a practice for everyone in my family, even for J the little yogi. It is amazing and I would recommend for everybody to try it. Yoga makes me feel happy……

Life is all about butterflies and rainbows. Don't let anybody tell you otherwise.

Crafternoons….

When my two good friends Lidia and Adriana were in town they taught me about Crafternoons. Being the wine-o that I am, I just loved the idea. Crafternoons: An afternoon of arts and crafts while enjoying  some good wine. Genius (LOL)!

So what a perfect moment to have them create the art wall I've been wanting in J's room. J loves arts and crafts and some of her favorites are drawing, painting, and coloring. Therefore, I wanted something where we can display her little art work.












Thank you so much girls! What a great time it was and what beautiful art work you girls created. Loved it and most important so did J. You girls sure can put style on anything. Cannot wait and already planning the next Crafternoon.

Cupcakes by J

Today was cupcake day for J and I. Well, its more like for J. I have been teaching and helping her since she was 3 years old, and now she bakes them all on her own (tears of joy). Kids grow up so fast…. These days  I just get stuck with the cleaning (LOL) and of course the yummy eating part too.

 I bought the cutest cupcake wrappers and toppers from Sur La Table. They are polka dot and stripe pin wheels perfect for any occasion or just for fun as they were used today. Only $1.99 each on sale!

 Baking is one of my favorite leisure activities and now so happy that it is also becoming one of Js. Cupcake baking is a fun and entertaining activity for you and your kids. For you patient parents out there.

Did they not come out soooo cute or what?

Dinner Tonight

I really fell in love with this dish and I wanted to share it. This recipe was introduce to me by Erika, my BF's sister and it is ohhh so yummy and easy to make.

Bok Choy Salad



Ingredients:
1/2 olive oil
1/4 cup white vinegar
1/3 cup white sugar
3 table spoons soy sauce
2 bunches baby bok choy, cleaned and sliced
1 bunch green onions, chopped
1/8 cup, slivered almonds, toasted
1/2 (6 ounce) package chow mein noodles

Directions:
1. In a glass jar with a lid, mix together olive oil, white vinegar, sugar, and soy sauce. Close the lid and shake until well mixed.

2. Combine the bok choy, green onions, almonds, and chow mein noodles in a salad bowl. Toss with dressing, and serve.

When Erika prepared this dish she made some substitutions. She used Soba noodles instead of chow mein and seasoned rice wine vinegar instead of white. Creating this Bok Choy salad to be more delish. You must try it, obsession guaranteed.

Sunday Juicing

Today was a juicing kinda morning. Lately, I'm into this green juice that is absolutely delish….. Not to mention that it is so good for you and the amount of energy it gives you is incredible. Now, this is not the only juice I make there are lots of different veggies and fruits that together make tasty juices.

    

Green Juice:

-3 heaping handfuls of Romain

-3 heaping handfuls of kale

-3 heaping handfuls of spinach(Blended)

-3 heaping handfuls of parsley

-3 pieces of celery

-4 apples

-3 peeled lemons

-3 whole cucumbers

tips: place parsley inside romaine lettuce to juice &

poor a little water when blending the spinach

Another one of my favorite juices is a beet and ginger juice. OHH so Good!!!! This is a little more of a sweet kinda juice. Still good for you….

Beet & Ginger Juice:

-3 beets (peeled)

-3 large carrots

-4 green apples

-3 peeled lemons

-ginger (small piece)

 I am loving these natural juices! I even made freshly squeeze orange juice for the little one with Valencia oranges and must I say, it was delectable.

These are all best when used Organic….
