Nothing Says Summer

Nothing says summer like…

Sidewalk chalk

 

Pedicures and sparkly sandals

Popsicles after dinner

 

Sundresses of seersucker and eyelet

A sheepdog with a buzz cut

Summer makes me want to drink smoothies every morning. 

Here’s my favorite:
A handful of frozen fruit

A freshly sliced pear (peels and all)

A handful of blueberries. 
A few strawberries. 
A splash of orange juice. 
And, the piece de resistance:

Yep, collard greens.  Don’t be scared.  You honestly can’t taste them.  You can use any dark green leafy veggie, but I found these guys to be my favorite.  They’re very mild and packed with Vitamins A, C and K, and contain superstar amounts of antioxidants.  It’s like health in a glass, really. 

Happy summer, friends!
