There are a lot of blog contests going on right now (including mine that is just wrapping up!)… Healing with Juicesis holding a contest to give away : Ani’s Raw Food Kitchen.

Maybe it's a sign…
Happy Sunday folks! I ended up going out dancing last night and even though I got to sleep around 3am, I woke up at 7am! Darn it. I couldn’t go back to sleep so I just got up and started my day. I did 30 Day Shred Level 1 and took a short walk. Now I am exhausted 🙁 I…
