As I have mentioned a few times, we are trying to make different smoothies each week.
When Gabriel did not feel well Wednesday morning, a smoothie is exactly what he wanted for breakfast.
I was not sure what all I had for smoothies, and I knew that I had a very small amount of yogurt. It turns out that yogurt is not an essential ingredient because the smoothies turned out great, our favorite ones yet.

We started our summer break in full force yesterday. Since we do not have a set plan of what to do each day, we just woke up, looked at the list, and selected some fun things to do.
One of the things that caught their attention was making popsicles.
While I had made popsicles out of juice before, I had never pureed my fruit and made them that way.

As I mentioned yesterday, I am trying to participate in the 30 Day Lunch Box Challenge hosted by the sweet Marla Meridith of Family Fresh Cooking.
For today's lunch, I decided to make a fruit dip to go with the apple slices. I also packed leftover cheese ravioli, carrot and cucumber slices, and a few cubes of angel food cake.
So far, I am truly enjoying coming up with different, healthy lunches each day. And, I can tell by the fact that the lunch container is actually empty
