Hi there Boyz and Girls,

I set off at the beginning of the year to try to eat a lil’ more healthy …  not that my diet is horrible,  just something to be more conscious of  and to improve.   So I started drinking a green monster every other morning. This is my take on the original recipe … OJ, collard greens, bok choy, banana, half apple, parsley, carrots and protein powder. Throw in some ice, blend, and there ya have it … a shake filled with healthy goodness.  I’m consuming less red meat and incorporating more grains and fish.  I’ve been trying a ton of new recipes,  some good, some not so much, but it’s worth it when you hit a home run. For those midnight snacks for my sweet tooth, I enjoy the  yummy little cuties. They def do the trick. Vinnie and I have been hitting the trails for some walks and taking in all of the beauty that spring brings, after a dull brown and (hopefully) white winter. … I do love the seasons!!!!!  It’s almost garden time!!!! :)))

So since we’re on the subject of food, :00  Friday I was invited to one of the top restaurants in Denver. (Cholon Bistro, Asian fusion) I have some friends that sell and hunt mushrooms with one of the top Chefs there.  Well we had the honor of sitting at the chef’s table!  It was just like sitting at the sushi bar.  As we ordered, it was prepared and explained right in front of us.  This was one of the BEST meals I have ever had in my entire life! Above and beyond the special treatment, the food was out of this world! I’m salivating just thinking about it!!! Most of the dishes take from several hrs to one or two days to prepare. Absolutely unreal!!!  If you ever make it to Denver, you have got to check this place out!!!      ChoLon.com

Tonight fish tacos. … Yummy!!!

Have a happy and healthy day!!
