Today's lunch was a refreshing, colorful spring or summer detox salad. This just screams HEALTH, don't you think? It definitely gave me some energy to get me through this super busy day.
And now it's time to relax and put my feet up since it is a non-cook dinner day! Yeah for leftovers ;) Ohh.. and I have some of this morning's chia pudding left for dessert! I'm ready for a relaxing evening in front of the tv! It's been a while.
Any movie recommendations? No action or romantic movies... I love Lynch and Cronenberg style quirky movies or fantasy and science fiction!
