i love my city.

i cannot explain to you the feeling of crossing the mighty mississippi into home.

i honestly feel a gravity pulling me back whenever i am away.

even my blood sugars tend to regulate.

my body eases.

memphis.

[not a poem, so don't look too hard for rhymes]

i have to shout-out to neely thomas for introducing me the age-old classic vita-mix.

i knew when she invited me over for a smoothie, that i was going to get the itch to invest in one.

i pretended like i needed justifications like, it will help my diabetes.

it may! but, really, i just love devices that make meal prep easier.

neely also was the first person to get me to try veggies in my smoothies, so now i am hooked.

disclaimer. 

i am not a vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, soy-free, dairy-phobic, granola, health nut, etc.

[in fact, i ate deer bratwurst three times this weekend]

i am a diabetic, and i am mindful of what i eat. 

i indulge sometimes because it keeps me sane, but i love finding healthier options about which i can get excited!

excuse me, i tried my first locally raised egg this weekend.

there is a huge taste difference to me!

that is why i am so excited that the memphis farmers market opens april 6!
