Giveaways, Breakfast & Jewelry

(***My GIVEAWAY~enter ***)
And another giveaway that Irma's Rose Cottage shared with me: Yarni Gras is giving away some cute heart pins! Thanks Irma!
I thought I'd share another healthy breakfast idea that I had this morning and do quite often...




I make a habit of throwing fruit that is in danger of not getting eaten anytime soon into the freezer in containers and then, when the mood strikes, I make a frozen fruit smoothie. Usually just fruit with a little juice or water to help it blend easy but I have been know to add ground flax, wheat germ, plain yogurt & maybe a touch of splenda if it's not quite sweet enough for me (grapes are a great sweetener too!). This morning was just frozen fruits & water: grapefruit, blueberries, pineapple, grapes & orange mango juice (frozen into cubes)...






Mmmm, frosty (I like these anytime of day actually!
And before I get caught up in the whirlwind of my day, I've been meaning to share this beautiful jewelry set I got from Eve at Jewels of Eden~ she makes luscious jewelry and I have so enjoyed wearing mine around town. Thanks Eve!...

Aren't they dreamy?

Another fellow shop owner on "etsy street" that has some precious prim tags, quilts, machine embroidery (check out the Redwork!) and other fun stuff is Sunbonnet Sue Lady . She's very creative and talented!

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog & comments. I think I may be a comment junkie. Like leaving & getting them. I love your idea for the fruit smoothies. Darn, I just threw a banana away 2 days ago that would have been a perfect canidate. I will definitely be trying that out.

MMM-I love a smoothie too, but don't drink too many in the winter time, but I might have to have one for breakfast tomorrow!

Hi TommieJo!
So glad you stopped by for a visit. The name of that color is Lion ... can you imagine? It just doesn't fit so I decided to rename it myself ... Autumn Sunset. Isn't that much more appealing!

Thank drink sounds delicious and so healthful. I may have to give it a try.

Blessings,
Lea

Tommie Jo,
The jewelry is very pretty. And that smoothie looks so yummy!
Thank you for stopping by my blog.
I too get letters addressed to Mr. I always thought that it was strange.
I am enjoying your blog. Gotta go back to reading more. Hugs, Bobbi Jo

Just wanted to take a minute and say thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment! Counted cross stitch isn't hard - give it a try, just start with something small!
That smoothie looks yummy!
