Recently I had the fantastic opportunity to take a trip to NC for my sister's college graduation! It had been 4 very long years since I had been there, and I had a fabulous time visiting old friends and getting re-adjusted to southern ways. :) After living there for 5 years, there was lots of things I loved about the South that I had forgotten! Such as: 1. The heat 2. The beautiful, lush landscapes and flowering trees 3. The fun accent 4. Beautiful homes and landscapes 5. The heat..did I mention that already? (wink!) Here is a recap of the week in pictures. I am a horrible blogger and missed so many great photos, but here are some fun ones I did get! The cute little car I rented while I was there! <3 This girl! My first time EVER not being on the platform for this type of thing...I rather enjoyed being able to just listen! This guy. I am SO GLAD I finally got to meet him and enjoy his adorableness! Loved this beauti...

Today I am sharing my very favourite smoothie recipe with you! It uses just simple ingredients and tastes wonderful, plus it is super easy to have as an on-the-go snack! Introducing the Strawberry Pina Colada Smoothie! When I added a second part-time job last fall, in addition to teaching piano, I discovered that I needed quick, easy, and affordable snacks and meals for on-the-go! Smoothies have been a favourite of mine for a while. After trying lots of different combinations I decided that this one is my favourite, hands down! Here is the recipe to make your own Strawberry Pina Colada Smoothie: 3/4 cup frozen or fresh strawberries 3/4 cup frozen or fresh pineapple 1/4 cup frozen or fresh banana coconut milk coconut water powder (optional) Now, the truth? I've never measured , I just totally guessed on those measurements. {wink!} I like to make enough to fill this wide mouth, pint-sized canning jar. You can play around with it and see what tastes the best to yo...

It is Monday again! Hello to a new week. :) This is the day I do a little phone-photo dump and recap my week for you in a random format. Ok, who are we kidding, I don't think there is any "format" to it. :) I've been blogging in this new space for a week now, and I am pretty excited about the direction this blog is headed. It has been very freeing to write in a fresh new place, and even though it still has a feel of the old blog, it has some qualities that make it seem new. Kind of the way decorating changes to a room make it feel fresh and new, even with the old wallpaper and carpet still in tact. Sometimes we just need a little change! So here is the phone dump part of the post: Ad for Kindle on the back of a magazine. Loved it! Totally me as a child....and adult ;) She's a friendly lady! Also we have one ready to give birth any day, so wait for those cute pictures!  Did you enter the giveaway yet? You still have a few more days! There...
