Juicing love

Looking for a good juicing recipe?

This is one Ray created and we are loving . . .

One medium Cucumber

Hand full of Kale

Hand full of Swiss Chard

Thin slice of Ginger Root

Three small/medium Carrots

Small Jazz Apple

Small Pink Lady Apple

Small Pear (when in season)

About 1/2 cup fresh Cranberries

If you can look past it's beautiful rich green color, you'll love the flavor!

Three years ago . . . .

(December 7th, which I missed, due to studying for finals)

Three years ago, this precious man,

brought me here

and asked me to walk along side him forever.

How did we fall in love, you ask?

Well, I'll tell you. . .

Christmas came early.

And we are so incredibly blessed.

Two couples in our church surprised me and Ray with two

incredible, amazing, humbling gifts of awesomeness.

This year Ray and I have encountered several situations that have brought us to a new way of living and a new way of eating. With this new life we have only dreamed of owning certain appliances that would enable us to live even healthier.

Now, we are deeply humbled to have them both taking up residency in our little kitchen.

A beautiful, red vitamix

and an amazing Green Star juicer.

We are so thankful and so excited.
