An interesting art/science video shows what happens when 15,000 volts of electricity travel through plywood. I don’t want to ruin it for you, but FRACTALS!

Heavenly Berry Smoothie

Healthy SmoothieI love making smoothies for breakfast! Who am I kidding, I love smoothies ANY time of day.

Here are more varieties of healthy smoothies that I have made over the years since starting this blog.  I even came across pictures of me with my first green smoothie.  Too fun!

Last week I made this Heavenly Berry Smoothie (name idea came from the pretty cup my mom gave to me for Christmas).  It has a sweet bible verse on it with beautiful butterflies.

The verse is “Every good and perfect gift is from above” James 1:17

In the smoothie cup went the following ingredients:

Blueberries
Strawberries
Greek Yogurt
Vanilla whey protein powder
Water
Ice

Then I used the Magic Bullet to blend it all up.  So thick and tasty!
