This weekend, it will feel like we’ve said aurevoir to Winter as we enjoy almost 80 degree weather here in North Carolina. Nowadays, because of the unpredictable nature of the weather, I check what it will be daily before deciding what all of our (kiddos and myself) outfits for the day will be. With that said,I think almost 80 degree weather calls for a visit to Greece, don’t you?

The challenge began January 2nd and will continue until the end of January. I have been replacing my breakfast with a green smoothie daily and now I’ve become a juicing maniac. In addition, I have adjusted my diet to exclude breads, the “bad” carbs etc. Now, I’m yearning all the “bad things” but I’m holding strong and fighting the urge… My Mom’s visiting which has also afforded me valuable time to exercising more routinely.</div><div align="center"><br /></div><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFBRzBjaKgyVGQ3ioCQCzlOMXjfkNJHLCL5O2g9MFT1qAMrmQVbTIpKNAd2sfh8bss3Fplpy0wOpmnbrPKMeIzpyvv11xARBid0014MhQEf4ZuoWQujboS8kWoa1dqT4uVBTgvLzpnbFJG/s1600-h/openbackgd%25255B3%25255D.jpg"><img alt="openbackgd" border="0" height="964" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBfJU4qGPtM5sqYhUwGqJ7hOsyweQ1rhb9OcM6IaF10u2u3qFTPo9UqpBJ5y0AApCUKVBe3iDXHR4M9uU2EBEYiH5UdO0riI7qap1Ot7J4uRvqcJVOEUdXD-gyqP-K8fVau8EaDba3huCG/?imgmax=800" style="background-image: none; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: block; float: none; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" title="openbackgd" width="644" /></a></div><div align="center">The great thing with this <a href="http://simplegreensmoothies.com/30-day-challenge"><span style="color: purple;"><b>challenge</b></span></a> is that they send you your smoothie recipes and a shopping list in your inbox each Friday.
