Hey there smoothies! I’ve really missed you these past few months… I’ve been backpacking in amazing Europe and sadly, had to give up a mostly raw diet, travelling with a fantastic group which preferred hamburgers over veggies. I did make the best choices I could and opted for a caprese salad over a well-done steak… but white buns, frites and all shapes of pasta ruled. Feels so refreshing to be able to blend my fresh blueberries and kale again…mmmm. I had an amazing summer and I am glad to be back. It was great to get away and I wish I could stay all year but its nice to return to what you’re used to.
Cheers to a fantastic vacation and cheers to be back to raw food and divine smoothies (and of course… tumblr!)
