Green & Blonde

This has nothing to do with being healthy, but a new haircut always (with few exceptions) makes me very happy. I love the way a new haircut can change the way you feel about yourself. My job requires a lot of public speaking, so a new haircut definitely helps to give me that extra confidence boost that I often need. Coco Chanel once said, "A woman who changes her hair is about to change her life." This has definitely been true for me!

I really don't know how to take a selfie...


I decided to make myself a cinnamon banana smoothie for breakfast. Smoothies have been my go-to lately. I'm usually on a pretty serious time crunch in the morning, and I love that smoothies are easy to take on the go. They're also packed with protein and nutrients. This is one of my favorites.

Cinnamon Banana "Chia" Smoothie
  • One banana 
  • 4-5 ice cubes 
  • Cinnamon
  • 2 cups almond milk (more or less depending on how thick you like it)
  • Scoop of greek yogurt (about 1/4 cup)
  • Handful of spinach
  • Honey
In a blender add your banana, ice, almond milk, yogurt, and spinach. Blend until almost completely smooth. Add a sprinkle of cinnamon and honey, and blend until smooth. The green color used to throw me off a bit, but you cannot taste the spinach at all, and it's a great way to get some extra veggies and iron in your most important meal of the day.
