Organic Greens

I have had a change of life experience lately and just like everything I find exciting and inspiring I want to share with my As Nature Intended interiors fans. I recently learned from Kate Gurecki, owner of Blue Morpho Organic Skinspa all about how eating more organic raw greens is not only good for you but also great for your skin. The more she talked the more I listened and began to read about this subject of eating more raw based green foods and less dairy. So I decided to try adding more organic greens and remove most dairy products from my diet. In this processes I learned that I was not only addicted to cheese but probably allergic to dairy products. As I have removed dairy products from my diet, I have felt better. Adding the greens was a challenge in the beginning, until Kate introduced me to Jason Santini, owner of the Happy Healthy Human. Jason showed me how to make raw greens taste great and fun. So now I am a mean green eating machine, I have green smoothies for breakfast, green salads for lunch and creating green dinners and deserts with greens. I hope I don't turn green while eating all these greens? LOL
To quote my friend Kate "when you eat bright and pretty you are bright and pretty".

So this organic green eating leads me to my new project, raised planter organic green gardening. So I asked my hubby to build me a raised planter. So this very smart and handsome man I am married to used an old picnic table as the base of the planter. Next, a trip to Sun Harbor Nursery located in Indian Harbour Beach to select my veggie plants, organic soil and organic fertilizer in just one weekend, Walla, I have a organic green garden. In true As Nature Intended fashion my green veggie garden must have some flowers so I can sprinkle them in my salad for pretty, "As Nature Intended" of course.

In the theme of being more organic and healthy I will also be cleaning my earthy hands after a day of gardening with Yummy Suds organic soap of course ;).

I can hardly wait for my new plants to be harvested and used in my healthy cooking creations. My challenge now is to create some healthy green based meals that not only taste great but also will look fabulous just "As Nature Intended".


Happy gardening,
