And....Juicing Has Changed My Life

Welcome to my blog!

My name is Kristina. I am a juice head. No, not the kind you've heard of before on MTV's reality show the Jersey Shore. No, I am not an italian man with big muscles with daily hobbies consisting of GTL.

Rather, I just love to juice.

My grandparents recently gifted me with a lovely high powered blender called a Vitamix, meant to aid me through any and all kitchen struggles I would face as an off campus senior. I was inspired this summer 'to juice' by my coworkers. Every morning I would come in for breakfast and find a "green drink" placed on my desk. In the afternoon, a few of us would create "pink juice" (made with papaya, oranges... and a few other secret ingredients I will touch on later) and lay out on the balcony to catch some rays to go along with our refreshing refreshments. When it was 5 o'clock somewhere, we would add tequila for tang... And because it was happy hour...

So, naturally when I left at the end of the summer to go back to Lehigh, juicing was all I could think about.

The day came last Monday, August 26, 2013, when my Papa told me I should be receiving a package today. VITAMIX! It was here. I could only think about how many different creations I wanted to try all at once!

I have 5 roommates now. And I obviously want them to be just as addicted as I am to this juicer. On our first night together (and by our first night together I mean, me, my roommates and the blender juicer) we threw together a bunch of ingredients we thought might, maybe, taste good together? Oh well. We were too excited! Everything went in. It turned out green. And we loved it.
