Not a recipe book, but a must read

 

 

 

I picked up this book at the library on a whim. Yesterday I read the whole book and I think everyone should read. Here are my reasons why:

1. If you love butter, you need to read this.
2. If you are vegan, you need to read this.
3. If you are in the medical profession you need to read this.
4. If you are brave enough to look in the mirror, you need to read this book.
5. If you are not brave enough to look in the mirror and see beauty, you MUST read this book.

It's novel, but it addresses some subjects that you may be facing in terms of health, fitness and self awareness. Don't worry, it is entertaining and funny too. I have written up a full review below with no spoilers.

Here is my review of the book ( click below):

INVISIBLE - My review 

I am so glad to have this opportunity to share resources with you. If you have any other books to recommend, please email me.

It's about time...Let's do the TWO STEP

 

 

 

I know! We finally have a rain free sunny day! That means smoothies for lunch! YES!

Today I just felt like something that smacked of milkshake and not so much green smoothie. Yes, I am sure you know what I mean. I didn't feel like a salad or veggies, I just wanted something yummy, but that would not take a ton of preparation or make loads of dishes. It is Friday after all and I am getting ready to relax. ( After the week I have had... I need it! More on that LATER )

So here we go: Peanut butter and banana smoothie a la milkshake - except it does not contain dairy milk, but coconut milk.

STEP BY STEP,

The TWO STEP in fact....

Let the music begin.

STEP 1

Banana, Organic Peanut Butter, Organic Cocao Nibs

STEP 2

Add your coconut milk

 Don't forget to add ICE!

I added in a tiny amount of Agave, but this is an optional extra.

Pour and enjoy....

I poured and enjoyed and forgot to take a picture of the finished product! But it was delicious, light and hit the spot for a Friday afternoon treat without compromising my health.
