Ate some good stuff today– trying to eat clean and all organic. AND ITS DELICIOUS!  And yes, I’m being lazy and eating in front of the tv with a pillow on my lap as a table!  Hey, don’t judge.. Haha! 

I had a busy day — so this is the perfect and relaxing end to my day! 

SOME THOUGHT:

My local area does not have enough clean eating and healthy places to grab and go!  I’m thinking this maybe a fun adventure for possibly a new career and my forever creative and growing soul! 

BUT, where to begin?!  Right, where do you begin – especially with the food industry! Laws and regulations, investments, and so much more! 

Well, it’s been a long day and I’m cutting this one short…  Although, I do want to share a sweet link I seen today that was about detox teas — YUMMY!
