Sweet Broiled Oranges from Delighted Momma. They're low-cal but taste like candy. Orange, cinnamon, and I used these coconut sugar crystals. You could probably find them on any health food/herb/vitamin website or Amazon too.
I purchased Crunchy Betty's Food on Your Face for Acne and Oily Skin. When I first started reading the Crunchy Betty blog, my skin was under control. Without going into too much detail... I've recently underwent some hormonal changes. And a variety of life stressors. And it's all wreaking havoc on my skin. My very minor adult acne exploded into the worst acne I've ever experienced. My skin was better than this when I was a teenager. So I'm hoping Crunchy Betty's ebook will help. Today I'm going to try the Lemon-Milk Alpha-Hydroxy Mask that was recently posted on her blog.
Kettlenetics. The 20 minute basics workout had me sweating, huffing and puffing, and made the backs of my thighs beg for mercy the next day.
On top of it all, I got sick. This is the first cold I've had all winter... now that it's spring. Boo. Oh well. So I've been drinking lots of tea. My new favorite is Green Rooibos from Mountain Rose Herbs. According the Mountain Rose Herbs profile, benefits include:
"anti-viral, anti-spasmodic and anti-allergic properties. They have also found that Rooibos is over 50 times more active in anti-oxidant properties then green tea... Rooibos is caffeine free, rich in naturally occurring trace elements, and contains healthy amounts of Iron, Magnesium, Potassium, Fluoride, Manganese, Zinc, Calcium, and Vitamin C. It also contains fair amounts of alpha-hydroxy acid, which is known to promote healthy skin.”And Green Rooibos is higher in all that good stuff than traditional Red Rooibos.
And of course... GREEN SMOOTHIES!
So I'm alternately raising a glass of Green Rooibos or a green smoothie to good health and staying sane. Cheers!
