Kiss Dry Lips Goodbye!
Liplicious.
Can you say this about your lips?
Unfortunately, some of us suffer from dry, chapped lips and surely, this discourages us from puckering up pretty. Maybe you love to talk a lot or smile a lot and that’s wonderful, but when you have dry lips, it can be bothersome and uncomfortable. Plus, it can lead to more serious problems like sores and infections! Read the rest of this entry »

Her Twitter name caught our attention – @IEatTrees. Curious, we checked out her blog and voila! – we found another vegan chef whose mouth-watering food photos convinced us that she has an interesting story to tell! Turns out, we were right. Today, stay-at-home mom Keri shares about her vegan journey and her delicious scrambled tofu!
Through my late teens and into my early 20s, I was the worst kind of consumer. I just purchased what was put in front of me and what I thought was convenient. For me, and this may sound odd, my journey to veganism began in 2008 with high fructose corn syrup.

Put the luster back in your locks!
Don’t you just hate it when your hair seems dull and lifeless? We’ve had our share of bad hair days and we’re sure you agree that it can ruin your mood and a perfectly good outfit!
Dry hair is dull hair, and this can be caused by both external and internal factors such as exposure to harsh chemicals or illness. The most common reasons for lackluster locks are:
- Harsh shampoos or shampooing too often
- Hair treatments (color and perm)
- Chlorine in swimming pools and hot tubs
- Excessive or improper use of blow dryer or curling iron
- Too much exposure to sun and wind

Be Shine-Free!
Struggling with oily, shiny skin? Those of us who suffer from an oil-laden T-zone would often wish that the problem would vanish overnight and be replaced with a healthy, radiant complexion. Skin that is oily attracts more dust and dirt to the skin surface, and we all know that excessive oil and dirt build-up can clog pores. As a result, acne breakouts can occur and larger skin pores develop, giving skin a rough appearance! Needless to say, oily skin isn’t pretty at all!

Green Blossoms Guest Chef – Jennifer Carson
She calls herself a “recovering fast food addict” who’s now a vegetarian in training. This week, Jennifer, also known on Twitter as @Groovyflor, shares her yummy Lentil Cacciatore and talks about her journey as a new vegetarian.
As a relatively new vegetarian, I understand the struggles that come with not eating meat. I understand the difficulty of having to avoid favorite foods. How hard it is to plan meals when before it used to be so simple. There are things that people who eat meatless have to think about that never cause omnivores to think twice.
On the flip side, I am new enough to remember what it felt like to eat meat and what it feels like now to be a veg. Physically, I notice a few differences. I feel healthier. I’ve lost a few pounds, though not as much as you might expect. I have more energy. It’s the external things that really surprised me though. I have learned better ways to prepare vegetables (I would happily replace French fries with roasted broccoli any day). Because of my new diet, I branched out and joined a Community Supported Agriculture program that delivered me a box of farm fresh produce every week. I learned that kohlrabi is fantastic.
