    On most days you can find me starting my day off with the power of the greens,by way of a nutrient packed green smoothie,but sometimes I like to trade the green for some grange. This drink is loaded with vitamins and nutrients that keeps a body strong, which is important during the busy holiday, cold and flu season. Carrot

      Thank you for sharing this. I have been trying to get into drinking juices like this since I do not eat that many veggies daily. I am thinking on buying a NutriBullet...any thoughts on that? Also, I invite you to link up your blog at our blog hop and link party @ http://www.thefamilyfunspot.com/2013/11/bloggers-unidas-2.html hope to see you there!
