Snowed In Super Smoothie Snack

I have a total smoothie obsession, I drink them everyday! Today I wanted to try something new instead. Nothing like being holed in on a snow day to encourage experimentation in the kitchen! I decided to make this totally vegan-friendly, healthy, and delicious creation that I'll definitely be making again!

First I took frozen blackberries and blueberries and a splash of almond milk and blended it in the blender just enough so it was a really thick consistency. Then I poured it in a bowl, topped it with fresh blueberries, a banana, hemp granola (Hail Merry), and drizzled about 1/4 teaspoon of organic blue agave syrup (from Trader Joe's) on top of it all.

This would be great as a snack, dessert, breakfast or lunch! It's guilt free and packed with nutrients for you! Put good in and get good out! Eating healthy can be easy and delicious you just have to get creative!

Here's what the final product looks like:

Here is the Hail Merry Granola I used:

Fancy Schmancy Weekend Eats

I have a habit of working my birthday for weeks after the actual day. I don't have just a single birthDAY, I have an unofficial "birth month." Even though I turned 25 the previous weekend, the quarter of a century celebrations continued into this weekend. You're only 25 once. 😇 I love eating food that's visually pleasing as well as pleasing to the taste buds. My family and I went to the Hotel Dupont, which delivered on those standards. We ate in the Green Room, which looked like a room straight out of the Titanic. The room had gigantic chandeliers, larger- than- life velvet curtains, and fresh- cut flowers on every table, all while a pianist plays music while you eat. Two words- fancy schmancy ! It was the height of classy and luxurious, and the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion. For an appetizer I ordered a glass of champagne...and pan seared sea- scallops with blueberry pureé and cheddar grits...sounds like an odd combo but it was so fresh and...

Justin Timberlake Took Over Philly!!!

This past Wednesday night I went to see Justin Timberlake in concert at the Wells Fargo Center. The 20/20 Experience was definitely a major experience! Timberlake is one if the greatest performing artists of our time, and knows how to entertain and put on an extraordinary show. He had the entire audience up on their feet, from beginning to end, as he took us through a musical journey. He sang popular hits such as Suit& Tie, Holy Grail, and Drink You Away off his most current album, The 20/20 Experience. He also had us travel back in time and sing along to some of his old classics like Cry Me A River and Sexyback. The theatrics of the show were one of a kind where the stage lifted up as a runway and allowed Justin to float in the air over top of the audience. He was literally right over top of me and my friend which made for amazing pictures! Then he sang a few songs on a little stage set up right in the middle of the audience which was very cool! Over all, Justin Timberla...

Cyrus and Hemsworth #Is It Really Over?!

It was back in the summer of 2009 that Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth fell in love on set while filming "The Last Song." It was my favorite kind of romance. I guess I am a hopeless romantic, because I live for real life relationships that blossom out of on screen love interests. I had so much hope for Miley and Liam because they always looked so in love, and the love seemed real. I remember being so excited when they announced their engagement in June 2012. Even though a lot off people thought it was premature for Cyrus, 19 and Hmsworth, 22 at the time. They were mature enough not to rush into marriage though and have a long engagement. There was no denying the couple was head over heels for each other. Little did we know Miley was soon going to let out all her demons at once to the public eye. Recently her stunts have been out of control, from her transition from pop princess to cutting all her of and publicly talking about things, let's just say, not so " Disn...
