Have any of you tried this?

 Apparently, “I’m outta the loop!”

According to the barely 21 year old cashier at Wholefoods, “I’m outta the loop!”.  When I asked why the bottle of juice he just rung up cost $10.99!!  he just replied, “Seriously! You don’t know about the Blue Print Cleanse?” I replied back, “Welp, I guess not Mr. Smartie Pants or I wouldn’t be freakn’ out over the price you just rung up!”

The juices are all the rage now and it’s called the Blue Print Cleanse. I researched it a bit, all the juices sound wonderful, my favorite sounding one:  White Cashew, Water, Vanilla, Cinnamon, Agave Juice….Ummmm Yumm! But I haven’t tried them yet. And I wasn’t about to let a young cashier coax me into purchasing a $10.99 bottle of juice either!

Have any of you tried this? Does it work? Is it worth my $$$ or should I spend my money on a pair of Michael Kors Otley cap-toe leather ballet flats!? He said people go store to store trying to find them because they sell out everyday; totally reminding me of the Furbie fury back in the day, a cult like following, haha.

Let me know!

A Glimpse Into My Bedroom…

a glimpse into my bedroom

 

 

 

My love for Scandinavian Design grew as my surroundings became increasingly more hectic. Getting older is what they call it I think :D   So as a result, I wanted the environment I lived in to become more simple and calm. (We all create out of necessity even if we’re not aware of it.) At the time I didn’t know that how I was designing, and the purpose behind my designs had a specific name to it – Scandinavian Inspired. I designed with the need for simplicity, I used colors that had a calmness about them (whites,greys,burnished clay colors,sage), and everything had an echo of nature behind it.

If you live in the U.S. you probably participated in some kind of cookout this weekend for Memorial Day and indulged in all the grub that follows….Grilled Burgers, Hot Dogs, Ice Cream, Chips, Potato Salad, etc…and also maybe one too many daiquiri, glasses of wine or beer…I know I did! So how about giving your body a break this week and take the stress off of your digestive track and substitute some meals with healthy smoothies, or juiced vegetables drinks instead. Give your body a DETOX this week by pumping it full of nutrients while releasing all those toxins!

Memorial Day Weekend!

Road Trip Snacks!

 

-not a suggested way of driving!  Kruz looooves trips!!!-

I absolutely LOVE any kind of road trips. Even if it’s just a 2 hour drive to see my sister or dad in PA, because it means I have the excuse to pack goodies for the drive! I don’t know why I get all excited about packing lunches and snacks, I just do.  Can’t imagine how I’ll be when I have kids, haha. It’s nostalgie I guess from when I was a kid going on vacations. We never stopped to get fast food….come to think of it, we barely ever stopped unless it was an absolute needed bathroom break! Our vacations consisted of long drives down to the beaches in the Outer Banks, NC – around a 12 hour drive, but my dad loved these long drives- listening to the B 52′s and the Beach Boys! …….”LOVE SHACK!!”

So my mom always made us different kinds of sandwiches for everyone, Peanut-Butter & Jelly, Ham & Cheese, Turkey & Cheese, Banana & Mayo – (yep, the banana one sounds gross but was and is still my favorite!). And of course tons of Lil’ Debbie’s and chips and juices, then packed it all in a giant blue cooler that lasted the whole trip. It was something my brother, sister and I always looked forward to….”What’s in the big blue cooler this time?!”  An awaited little surprise during a horribly long drive.

Dan and I are driving down to Ocean City, MD this weekend…early start at 4:30am! It’s one of my best friends birthday’s and I actually used to live down there with her for a summer after high school about 10 years ago in the tiniest apartment ever, along with her cousin Autumn. It’s going to be a blast, I haven’t been down there since.
