Well, where to begin? Yesterday our sweet Charlie moved into her dorm room at Auburn for her Freshman year! Wow!! It is just amazing how very fast time has passed.
I battled a cold and didn't cycle or exercise until yesterday - and then I just decided to sweat it out! I actually did sweat a lot and felt pretty good.
So today I enjoyed sleeping in a bit (until about 7:45am) Then we decided to hit the beach for some sea glass hunting, which is one of my MOST favorite things! I found one half dollar size clear piece and saw some cool fish around the coral.
There was this one guy totally checking me out....
We got home and I decided to go cycling. It was kind of rainy and I decided TODAY was the day to do something that went against my normal "overly cautious" judgement, by hitting the rode despite the fact I could "see" the down pour coming. With each pedal I was in a battle with myself as to if I should turn around and get home or keep going. Well, I opted to keep going and a light rain began. As it got slightly heavier I got under the pavilion and that's when it happened! I thought NO!!! I'm NOT going to "wait for it to pass!" Just like that - I made my mind up and....PEEeeee-CHOWWwww! ....I was on my bike and peddling away into a typical South Florida gully washer! BOY oh BOY did the bottom fall out! Hahaha!!! It was AWESOME! I just found myself laughing and feeling like a kid again! I was soaking wet by the time it passed and I'm just SO GLAD I did it! I will add here that another interesting thing happened that I will NEVER get used to...A literal "herd" of Iguana's (like 6) of varying sizes from about 2ft and up - came RUNNING across the bike path! haha! I almost crashed - Now THAT would have been a story!
Well, I got home and decided to make a smoothie with my beloved Ninja!
In case anyone is interested in how I make mine (I believe I've posted this previously, but am doing it now): I use Kale, Carrots, Cucumbers,Spinach, Red Grapes, Apple, Pineapple and Banana - cutting and separating into freezer bags (it's just easier that way) 
I really like to use Unsweetened Cashew Milk with just a splash of Chocolate Cashew milk - ice and a little water - Along with one scoop of Vanilla Whey Protein Powder...
I blend it for about 1 minute...
And then serve...SO GOOD! Tomorrow I will post a really delicious salad recipie that I love and is super easy to make!
