<div style="text-align: center;">
It's real and exhilarating and phenomenally crazy!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is my first experience with starting a business and surely a first time really being involved in every aspect of creating something from the ground up. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The support and positive energy is astounding and I can't imagine how amazing that opening day will be.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But for now I am focused on product and the menu......my favorite part of course!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I found a new recipe that I wanted to share for no bake super protein cookies.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thank you Jason Wrobel for the inspiration.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ingredients (organic):</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 c raw oats (gluten free if possible)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1/2 c raw nut butter (I used almond)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1/4 c grade b maple syrup</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1/4 c coconut oil</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1/2 tsp vanilla bean powder (or extract)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
pinch celtic salt</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2 tbsp raw vegan protein powder (sunwarrior chocolate was my choice)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To do:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-take oats and process until slightly chunky, not a powder</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-add remaining ingredients</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-process until combined and it starts to form a ball in processor</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-line a baking sheet with parchment paper</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-scoop dough and roll them into balls</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-flatten the tops a little to create a cookie look.....or keep them as balls</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-refrigerate for at least 1 hr or overnight</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-the coconut oil will solidify and harden the cookies</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had 2 for breakfast and I'm still full 3 hrs later.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Enjoy!</div>

I am a firm believer in the concept that the energy you put out is a direct correlation to what you receive.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Karma in a sense.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have been privileged in my life thus far to have a lot of passion and many dreams.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I never thought of them actually playing out in reality.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A year or so ago I started to make vision boards and really spend time on my inner self.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have practiced yoga and taught for a while and have always had that extreme compassion present.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have ALWAYS had an exotic love affair with food!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All of these pieces have come together at last.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-large;">Bee Organics</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We are hoping to open in October and I am so honored to have an amazing partnership that will nurture my dreams.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
organic</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
vegan</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
cold pressed juicery</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
cafe</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
market</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
yoga</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
green market</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
delivery</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
cleanses</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
retail</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
workshops</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
lectures</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
COMMUNITY!!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is a pinch on the arm and a kick in the ass to make this space reach far beyond its 4 walls.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have always had a vision of WPB being a community of conscious people supporting and teaching each other.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am finally rooting deep into this community in a way I never thought possible.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am excited for this amazing journey and know it will bring wonderful ups and downs for the future.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
ebb & flow of life!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
xoxoxo</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so much gratitude! </div>

Hello again!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
It has been far too long since I have had a moment to sit and focus on GRATITUDE.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It started a few weeks ago when a friend came to us with a business proposition.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Who would have ever guessed that this would come to fruition and really grow into something that I have only dreamed of.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
More to come on that!!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We were ecstatic to go to aspen for the 2nd time this year for a Bar Mitzvah. It was so gorgeous to be there in the summer and the whole weekend was perfect.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I AM.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I applied as an ambassador and have become one in the last month. I have one of their gorgeous yoga bags that are hand made by women in Guatemala.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is a fun and beautiful company born out of compassion and love.</div>

This isn't the first time I have taken myself off of Facebook.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I started school again back in 2012 I thought it would be a great tool to keep me connected into the outside world.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It served it's purpose and now I need to let it go!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I spend a lot of time in front of a computer and it has become quite a distraction for me.....I hate to admit it.....but such is life.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know that if my "friends" want to continue to see the content that I shared they will find me through my site or blog...instagram.....maybe even a phone call.....*gasp*!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is an incredible forum and I have much respect for it.</div>

I don't usually spend too much time on dessert. There is never room in my belly for it! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had some really ripe bananas and didn't want to trash them so I whipped up this little diddy!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: purple; font-size: x-large;">Maca Mousse</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple;">Ingredients:</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple;">1 super ripe banana</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple;">1/4 cup raw unsweetened coconut flakes</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple;">1/4 cup hemp milk or any nut milk</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple;">1 tsp power seed blend</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple;">( this was a blend of ground chia, flax, hemp )</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple;">1 tsp maca powder</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple;">2 tbsp vegan choc chips </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple;">* if you have cocoa use that with 1/2 date *</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple;">Throw into a high powered blender</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple;">and freeze for at least 1 hr to solidify.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple;">A great addition would be berries on top!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica; font-size: 13px; line-height: 13px; text-align: left;">Maca is a Peruvian plant resembling a radish with a history believed to stretch back more than 6,000 years. Inca warriors ate the root before heading into battle, as it was believed to increase virility and strength, according to Scott Wilson of the Panther Gulch Permaculture Project. Today, maca root powder is used in a variety of applications, including the treatment of hormonal imbalances, sexual dysfunction and protection from UV rays.</span><span style="border: 0px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica; font-size: 13px; line-height: 13px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: left; vertical-align: baseline;"><br /><br />Read more: <a href="http://www.livestrong.com/article/132068-the-health-benefits-maca-root-powder/#ixzz2PaezIwxb" style="border: 0px; color: #003399; cursor: pointer; font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: 1.2; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">http://www.livestrong.com/article/132068-the-health-benefits-maca-root-powder/#ixzz2PaezIwxb</a></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It is important to soak the organic raw sunflower seeds in filtered water overnight.</div>

This releases the enzyme inhibitor which allows you to better digest.</div>

As you know I have a deep love and passion for food!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The 1 day juice cleanse wasn't as hard as I thought it would be.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I drank 16 oz of green juice early morning</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
& another one around 10am.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For lunch I had 1/2 of the almond milk which was delicious!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had another green around 3 the rest of the mylk at 5 and then 1/2 of a green before I ate a light dinner.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ultimately I would have had a juice for dinner but I didn't want to go to bed with that empty feeling.....g-d forbid!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My goal is to do this every 2 weeks.....making my own juice so I don't have to get another job!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Josh wants to partake as well....pretty cool.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Green juice recipe:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
apple</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
celery</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
cucumber</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
leafy greens (kale, romaine, spinach)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
lemon</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
ginger</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Almond "mylk" recipe:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
almonds</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
water</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
cinnamon</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
cardamom</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
dates<br />
vanilla<br />
sea salt</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
* learn how to make<a href="http://gratitude-ap.blogspot.com/2012/03/nuts-for-brazil-nuts.html"> nut milk in recipe </a>section, each nut has a different soak time*</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Doing a one day cleanse definitely helped my digestion.....I was a little tired but would have felt differently if I would have continued longer.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Start with a one day juice feast....let me know how it goes for you!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
