Mango, Avocado and Beetroot Smoothie

 

Hey guys, it's been forever, I know and I'm sorry. I hope everyone is well and praying/thanking God for Nigeria. I really miss you, so today to compensate for my many days of absence, I'll be sharing a simple yet mouthwatering recipe from our favorite food blog. Just yesterday, I was scolding myself for getting lazy on the fruit consumption department. For some reason, everything just seems so hard to ingest the moment I get home at night. I was served watermelon, (probably my favorite fruit) last week and I couldn't take more than two pieces; that annoyed me BIG time. Anyway, so yesterday I was thinking, I have to do something about this.I need to be healthy you know, and because it's been a while I used the smoothie maker at home, I totally forgot about its existence. Then I started to rethink an easier way to get my nutrients up and bingo! Smoothies, hell yeah! So dear loved ones, if you are in the same boat as me or one similar, you may need to get your smoothie maker out again or make a budget for smoothies and get some from a hygienic spot around you. The beauty about doing it yourself is you can get really creative with the fruits and flavors. Anyway, you should try this one, I don't really like Beetroot but when it was all blended up this way, I couldn't get enough. Enjoy!

Money Weirdness

Hey guys, how was your weekend? I hope you were all able to rest well. Let's start the week with a little money talk, shall we? First, let's go back to those good old days when you had no care in the world, or at least, no serious care. Do you remember? Do you remember when you thought 5 bucks could buy everything you wanted in the world? My youngest nephew was recently given a cash gift for coming out top of his class. First, he was a little confused, given that he was expecting a toy or even candy and then it seemed like realization dawned on him that he finally had money (he's 4); something he was told too often wasn't available when he made silly requests. His dad came in a few minutes later and he ran to him showing him his cash gift "daddy daddy uncle gave me money, now I can buy anything I want". Awwh, how naive right? Sometimes, that's just bliss. The innocence of a child is adorably pure and peaceful.
