One of my favorite smoothies at Tropical Smoothie is the Blimey Limey. It has strawberries, limes, oranges, and pineapples. I love the tang of the limes in the drink. So when I found a recipe for a smoothie that used limes, I had to try it out. Delicious! After drinking it, I was super energized.…

It gives you green coloring without food dye. Now when the boys have their Homemade “Shamrock” shake, I can have this instead. Yeah! Oh, it’s also husband-approved.…

The other night, the Wee One handed me a box and asked me what was in it. As I looked through it, I found blank cards and recipe cards. The treasure was two recipe cards written by my grandma. She died Christmas Eve of ’08, so it was nice to see her handwriting again. My…
