The Green Stuff

I know it looks disgusting.  You put spinach, apple juice and a banana in a blender, mix it all and you get this.  It's a green smoothie, and it's part of my Eating Well resolution for the year. No, I'm not a vegetarian and I don't have any plans on becoming one any time soon (in fact, I'm looking forward to tonight's dinner out... a juicy Argentinian grill called "La Vaca Loca").  But I do need to increase my intake of greens, and this is a fast and yummy way of doing it.  So far, no volunteers are joining me on this healthy task.  In fact, everybody steps away when they see me preparing my colorful treats.  It's ok...I guess I wouldn't either.

Tonight, after dinner, we're all going to see a photography exhibition at a gallery in the beach.  We've all had a rough week, so a little distraction is exactly what we need.  My sister in law kind of lost her job.  She works at a small image consultant agency that had just started business about six months ago.  I guess their cash flow fell behind and they didn't have enough money to keep paying her salary.  She's a graphic designer and really talented.  You can check out her work here .  So if you happen to live in Miami and think you have a job for her, let me know.

I'm really looking forward for tonight's night out.  I'll bring my camera so luckily I'll be able to take some good shots of our evening.
