Happy Friday! It really is the best day of the week. This week flew by, but I did manage to take a few pics!
1.) I made plenty of smoothies. With the suddenly warm temps, they were on the menu for breakfast, dinner, snacks- you name it. I missed smoothie season.
2.) Finally watched The Impossible, which was so. good. It was sad, but such a great story. That’s all I’m telling you, because you should go watch it
3.) Enjoyed Living Intentions Gone Nuts for review!
I first tried the Lime Mojo Cilantro Pepitas and Pistachios with lunch…
…but there were definitely a few handfuls after, too! These clusters are raw, but they’re so flavorful you wouldn’t know it.

And the Clusters of Cacao, Almonds, Raisins, Blueberries, and Coconut were just as impressive. Especially with a clean ingredient list like this:
Ingredients: Sprouted Almonds (pesticide free), Organic Raisins, Organic Coconut Palm Sugar, Organic Blueberries, Organic Coconut, Organic Raw Cacao, Organic Clear Agave Nectar, Organic Unfiltered Olive Oil, Organic Vanilla Extract and Himalayan Crystal Salt.
4.) Gave the ponies baths…
…and ran Zazu. I think he was more tired than I was for once.
5.) Made my favorite Chicken Noodle Soup. Except I subbed in sweet potatoes for noodles, since we didn’t have any on hand. Wait, wasn’t I just talking about how it’s smoothie season? Indecisive.
6.) Picked a random winner for my Cafe Press giveaway. Congrats to Katie from Peace, Love, and Oats!
And now I’m looking forward to the weekend

Your smoothies look great! What is the topping on top of the green smoothie?
I can’t wait for the weekend!!
WHY IS EVERYONE GETTING WARM WEATHER?!!? haha it’s currently 25 and freezing rain/sleet in MN, AND we’re expected to get 6 + inches Monday, along with another storm next weekend.
Your smoothies look delicious! Chicken noodle soup is calling out to me now though. Oh and those cacao clusters…
Get me out of this place haha.
Okay, done ranting.
Have a good weekend, Sunnie!
I’m shiverering just reading that!! I’m just like you- can’t stand the cold! In the winter all I want to do is curl up in blankets- I’m much more productive in the summer haha. Happy weekend Abby!
enjoy your weekend! Loving all the eats, those nuts are good and I am not even a big nut fan
Those pepitas look and sound super delicious! I need to give those a try ASAP.
That soup looks great. I’m currently enjoying some chicken soup myself with peas and carrots
Yum! Peas and carrots are must-haves in all soups. I put peas in literally everything! So good
Ah I want to see that movie so badly!
Yes! Just bring lots of tissues haha. It’s even more amazing because it’s a true story! It definitely reminds me how much there is to be thankful of in life.
I’m really wishing that it was smoothie season over here! Winter is putting up a good fight and refusing to give way to spring. I can’t wait for warmer temps!
yayy!!!!! so excited!!! Thanks, Sunnie!
No problem! Hope you like it! I know I could spend wayy too much time on that site haha
We are back into chilly weather in Orlando, FL. Believe it.
I’m missing my smoothies too!!!
Is that canyon bakehouse bread? So good.
This one was Udi’s actually, but Canyon Bakehouse is yet to be beat
I love that stuff. Have a great weekend!
Your soup has me craving chicken noodle now
have a great weekend!
Thank you! I always seem to have Chicken Noodle soup cravings
Zazu looks so sweet! Have a good weekend!
I love it when he’s relaxed and sweet
Mission accomplished haha. Hope you have a great weekend, too!
Great photos! I badly want to see that movie, but I know I will be a crying mess.
Yes! My friend Kleenex was right next to me the whole time
i want to see the impossible so bad! i saw an advertisement when i was getting my nails done a while back and i’ve been on the hunt ever since! none of the theatres around here carried it (no clue why?!) so now i just have to wait until it comes out on DVD…
Your smoothies look great! I love making smoothies
although it is still freeeezing here!
your smoothies ALWAYS turn out so gorgeous. mine is always a watery mess. need to lower down the water. haha
Thanks! I’m completely guilty of adding too much liquid ususally and making smoothie flops- now I have to use a measuring cup haha.
Never heard of The Impossible but i’ll have to check it out, it looks interesting.
Your smoothies look delicious!
Thank you! They haven’t always, though, haha
You are a pro smoothie maker mine never look that nice! Looks like you had a beautiful week! Love + Shine Courtstar
love that you subbed in sweet potatoes for noodles in your chicken noodle soup, what a great idea!!
Thank you! Sweet potatoes just go with anything
