I am a big fan of wine. Some days, however, I just want something a little lighter, a little juicier, a little more like a glass of when-I-was-a-little-girl-on-summer-break punch. Except, with a bit of… punch to it. Not quite as sweet or heavy in my mouth as a Sangria (also it’s been a long day and I don’t feel like cutting up fresh fruit tonight). Enter the Summer-y Wine Spritzer! Simple. Tasty. Girly. Perfect! In the name of research, I tried a few different combos. BECAUSE I CARE. <3 I have a version for reds and version for whites, but…

My obsession with pineapple and smoothies took a gloriously green turn this morning with this beauty! It tastes like what a heavenly tropical paradise should feel like (minus the humidity & sand). Sweet and a teensy bit tart, Exotic & refreshing! Here’s what I used: 2 slices fresh pineapple 2 fresh kiwi fruits, scooped 1 leaf fresh green kale, stripped About a cup of fresh orange/pineapple juice blend (you can use cold coconut water if you want to cut back the sugar from juice) Blend & Enjoy!

I’m always amazed by the incredibly gifted people in my world. Today I want to give a shout out to multi-talented photographer, musician and dear friend, Michael Powell. Holla! Michael and I became friends years ago when he was playing guitar in a mutual friend’s band (more on Josie and her current band Eye the Realist another day). We bonded over LOST, a.k.a. one of the best TV series ever. I bawled my eyes out on his couch during the Series Finale. Oh, and it was a party so there were quite a few people there watching me totally meltdown……

You are SO MUCH more beautiful and valuable than any momentary image. You are so much MORE than society would have you believe! Start today to change the dialogue with your mirror, and begin to believe in YOU.
