Green Without Envy

Rise and shine! My mother is the true master juicer. I can get down with a green juice, but it’s hard when you can taste EXACTLY how healthy it is for you. This juice has a ton of spinach which, to me, has a milder taste than some other greens like kale. Try:

3 packed fistfuls of spinach

1 green apple (seeds and stem removed)

1 peeled clementine (peel discarded)

Yields one refreshing green juice that does not taste like the bottom of a lawn mower.

Bonus: the pairing of vitamin c from the citrus helps your body absorb the iron from the spinach.

Autrey Mill Nature Preserve

I discovered this little gem the other day when we stopped by for story time. This visit we walked the trails all around. It was peaceful (minus all of the noise that we brought). A buck crossed our path about 5 yards in front of us, gave my little guy a whole bunch of side eye. A mix of wooden walkways, natural trails and bridges with lots of variety kept my littles’ interest. It’s worth about 40 minutes of your time if you have a little sprinter like I do.
