I spent Saturday at a daylong meditation retreat, and it appears that this bunny did as well. He spent much of Sunday lounging in our backyard and looking quite peaceful and unconcerned as I spent time in my garden. And I will have to clean the kitty drool off of the windows for sure!
The theme for this week’s menu plan is Wendy’s 50th birthday, which is quite a milestone. Wendy is also our kind host over at Celiacs in the House. I’ve had the privilege of helping Wendy re-shape her diet and health for her birthday, and sharing my perspective on Wendy’s process. I know she’ll keep many of the healthy habits she’s absorbing as she moves forward!
In honor of Wendy’s birthday, I’ll be making her kale berry smoothie. I must confess, I have a Vitamix. And I love my Vitamix. But I rarely make myself smoothies, and so I’ll give this a roll this week.
Also, I have a newsletter up on gluten in medications on my website. Enjoy!
And, Amy of Simply Gluten and Sugar free has an amazing Sears Chef giveaway on her site…
