No wonder this is Joe's favorite juice, it contains some of the most nutritious fruits and vegetables on the planet. It's simple, satisfying, and it was what got Joe through his 60 Day Reboot. It is a great juice for boosting your immune system and keeping your whole body clean, healthy, and happy. Are you someone who needs their caffeine? The cucumbers in this juice are a good source of B vitamins that help pump up your energy. Put down those caffeinated drinks and consume more cucumbers!

So there you have it. Some of the many reasons why this juice is amaze-balls.
Oh, and FYI, I do not have a fancy-schmancy juicer. In fact, I don't have a juicer at all. The one I am using belongs to my mother. It is a GE and she got it at Wal Mart for around $40. It may not be the best juicer on the market, but it works wonderfully. I have asked for gift cards for my birthday (in June) to buy a Breville for myself so mom can have hers back. I just like the reviews on the Breville and since I don't want to pay $429.99 for a masticating Kurvings Whole Juicer, no matter how amazing it is, I will pay $150 for a Breville. Hopefully less though if I get gift cards. My point being, you don't have to have a fancy juicer to juice. It is all about personal preference, budget, and what you are willing to invest in your health. (I've already proven how cheap produce is for juicing.)

Prep for our Trip:
Last night Andrew and I had quite the adventure. Well, since we never do much during the week is was an adventure for us. We are leaving for St. Louis tomorrow and will be there until Sunday afternoon. Since we are basically living off of my income since he's in school, we were trying to figure out how to make all of these trips we have as cheap as possible. Last night we went to good 'ol Wally World to get a cooler (because we didn't own one of our own) and plan our meals/snacks that can be had at the hotel. I bought ingredients to make enough mean greens for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday morning. I will just load those up in Mason jars tonight and have them ready to go. Then we got things like OJ for Andrew, crunchy snacks, some dark chocolate squares, bananas, doughnuts for Andrew (he loves his carbs), carrot sticks, diet soda, and of course.... a bottle of wine for moi! This way we will probably only have to buy lunches and maybe one dinner since his parents want to take us out on Saturday night. We should get by on this trip very cheaply and I'm happy about that!
We also went to Andrew's aunt and uncle's house last night to see their new kitten! Her name is Caroline and they adopted her from the APL and she is adorable. The call her a blue tabby. Basically she is gray with the black tabby stripes. She was precious and she slept on my lap for a bit. Kittens are adorable... unless they're in crazy mode. Ha!
From there we went home and I had to head right to bed after my shower because Walter had to be at PetsMart for his grooming at 7:00am which means I had to leave the apartment by 6:45. Goo.
Anyway, it was an eventful evening and I'm excited to get some time away with Andrew. If you're watching the NCAA tournament and happen to catch any of the games in St. Louis; watch for me! I might pick my nose or something the minute the camera pans by my section. Or scratch my boob. Something totally flattering and not embarrassing at all!
