It’s Love Day… From, Sir Thomas
Every Morning I say…
“I will have a good day, today! Today, if something bad happens; I want to be able to process the bad in my mind; and I certainly want to find the good in it to move my life forward!”…This is my tip to me. My mornings begin with this short phrase. A short phrase, which, for sure, has an enormous impact on my day. I’ve been doing this for a few years now. This short phrase has now developed into a healthy habit in my life.

What do you say to yourself each morning before starting your day?

Optimistic

Things around me are blurry often times, and I understand that’s because the world has infinite offerings. They all overlap and become out of focus in my mind. But, one of the infinite offerings is always clear in my head. I completely embrace it. And, it’s being optimistic. Simply put, I live it! It motivates me. I am, after all, the Unstoppable Optimistic blogger.

My Perfect Green Smoothie!
I love this smoothie! It’s light and has so much good nutrients. I love to make it for myself and my husband. Kids totally freak out with the green color. They don’t know this, but I do add a little bit of green stuff in their smoothie, just enough so it does not turn green on them :). Crazy mom!
I add strawberry, banana and water into the smoothie tumbler. We recently bought the Ninja (blender/smoothie-maker/food-processor). I’m loving the fierce speed of this machine – 1500 watts, and the box says, “Total Crushing Technology.” 🙂
I use my fingers to push the greens below that -MAX FILL- mark on the tumbler. The blade-lid unit does not screw in otherwise.
I close the top with the blade-lid. This top will be the bottom on the Ninja machine.
And, here it goes…the “Total Crushing Technology” at work!
I take two deep breaths and voila! The smoothie is ready for my husband. He drinks it right out of the tumbler. I love this part too; no extra cups or drinking glass to be washed. I’m all set to make mine, now. 🙂 I love this drink!
Direction:
(1 – serving; Prep time: less than 5-minutes; total time: less than 5-minutes)
1/2 of 6″ Banana
1/2 Cup Frozen Strawberries
2 Cups Olivia’s Organic mix (can use any other spring mix, spinach or kale)
1 Cup water (more if the smoothie is too thick)
Place all four ingredients in the tumbler. Close with blade-lid. Blend. Blend for 10 seconds and it’s done! Enjoy.

The salad gives me – Vitamin A 110%; Vitamin C 50%; Calcium 6%; Iron 20%. The Strawberries give me – Vitamin C 45%, Iron 2% and Calcium 2%. Banana and Strawberries are high in potassium.
(I eat lean meat/fish for my protein to balance my meal. Sometimes I add protein powder in this smoothie and get protein that way).
