Happy Sunday Afternoon friends. Hope you've all had a great week. I've been doing some cooking, baking and tea making. I've really been enjoying making and creating loaded teas, shakes, smoothies and coffee drinks. I have not been writing down my recipes but guess I need to start doing that so I can remember what all I done! LOL! I try to stick with healthy and low calorie drinks and have so many different things that I want to try. But, this is an easy way to get extra vitamins, or Collagen, or protein.

" I remember saying, "Papa, I love him! My grandfather simply said, "Then that's good enough for me". Basically, we have grown up together. We started our family at the age of 20 and God has truly blessed our family. Thr
