By making small changes over time you can change your habits. Including exercise as part of our daily regimen is a challenge for many. Sometimes just finding time to walk, run, go to the gym, or bike is almost always difficult.

You all know I haven't watched television since 1998 so there are things I completely miss or don't hear about at all (not that I mind, mostly) and much of it is on the internet anyway so between articles and videos of the episodes on tv, I see and hear pretty much everything in my own time and my own terms. So I'm a little slow when it comes to hearing about "Ten Superfoods" (apparentl

We met for some stand-up comedy Sunday evening. Simon Amstell describes himself as a skinny Jewish homosexual comic and we had an entertaining evening listening to his stories, with him presumably powered by Benylin or some other form of medical assistance.After a short introductory session by an accomplished warm up, Simon took us through two halves of conversational musings about life, existence

Last week we witnessed temperatures peaking at 90, and my gym is suddenly so full of people trying to get into shape for the beach that there's no doubt in my mind that summer is definitely here! And that means more sun, more barbecues and more cool and refreshing drinks. We celebrated the onset of summer with the luscious Rasperry Lassi, which is a fancy name for a smoothie or yoghurt cooler. Lassi is a traditional Indian yogurt drink which originated from the state of Punjab. Its more like a thick-shake, but with yoghurt and milk. Over time, the basic recipe underwent a makeover with addition of fruits and other flavors. Everyone is familiar with the Mango Lassi, which you must have seen on several restaurant menus. But this Raspberry Lassi is a class apart, because the tartness of the r

If you are looking for a fat free alternative dessert then here is a simple answer... try having a smoothie, they are quick and easy to make and leave you with a healthy buzz of satisfaction. RECIPE:A smooth emulsion of ripe strawberries and soft banana, pureed with light Greek yogurt and cubes of ice, garnished with a refreshing rose red strawberry.You will need: 8-10 Strawberries (save 2 for the presentation) 2 Bananas 2/3 tablespoons of fat free Greek yogurt 6-8 ice cubes In a blender first add the ice, followed by the fruit and lastly the yogurt... if you wanted to add a bit more flavour you could add some desiccated coconut or honey.Once blended into a smooth liquid pour the smoothie into 2 glasses. You can spice up the presentation by putting a slot down a half of a strawberry and s

This smoothie was inspired by the Innocent smoothies one of a similar flavour combination! Initially I did not really like their coconut, pineapple and banana one as I thought it tasted of sun tan lotion, but I have now come round to the idea.It is a much needed taste of sunshine, summer, and beaches (especially with snow in April, what's that all about!). I can imagine sitting on a beach somewhere in the tropics sipping one of these. It is a kind of non-alcoholic pina-colada. Unless you fancy adding a bit of rum yourself as a summer treat.The other half said this smoothie was tastier than the Innocent one - maybe as it was freshly made, and had loads of ice in as well to thicken it up. A good review anyway!Ingredients1/2 pineapple2 bananas200 mL orange juice12 ice cubes100 mL coconut

I woke up this morning, not from my alarm clock but from the singing, whistling and chirping birds from outside. When you here them, you know its spring time. And when you know it's spring, it's time to work-out, walking outside and soak up the sun and the warm of the weather. Uhhhhhh! BUT don't get to relaxed, it's also time to put more of a spring into action for working out and eating the greens.Spinach is a great source of iron from the Popeye knows best. If you don't like spinach cooked, eat it raw. A little bit on a sandwich, salad or in a smoothie. Yes I said 'SMOOTHIE'. I might look terrible but it taste good and refreshing.

We all know that eating fruit is extremely beneficial to our health and well-being. However, finding the time to eat enough fruit per day can be difficult due to busy lifestyles. I have found a site that has hundreds of healthy smoothie recipes to help with this. Give it a try. Strawberry smoothies are usually the most popular and SmoothieWeb.com has a many to choose from. This site is also looking for submissions for all fruit smoothies.

This smoothie is based on the classic gateau from the 80's. Traditionally flavoured with lots of cream, chocolate and forest fruits - black cherries, blackberries, and blackcurrants are the main ingredients. It originates from the Black Forest in Germany, hence the name schwarzwälder Kirschtorte (black forest cherry cake). Usually, Kirsch liqueur is added into the cake as well for extra cherry flavour.Unfortunately this gateau seems to have got itself a pretty poor reputation, I think this is attributable to the flooding of supermarket freezers with poor quality black forest gateaux. Sara Lee has a lot to answer for.Anyway, my smoothie is loosely inspired by this cake! No pictures for this one as I drank it straight away! Whoops.Here it is...IngredientsBlack cherries ~10Blackberri

Today I bring you a rather exotic tasting smoothie. A tip of mine is to chop up the fruit and put it in your freezer for about half an hour before blending. This way you don't need to use any ice cubes, which can make it a little bit watery.Ingredients1 mango1 banana10 strawberries500 mL apple juiceChuck all the ingredients into a smoothie maker, having chopped them up into small chunks, and blend for about a minute.Enjoy!

Another tasty smoothie which I whizzed up today. This one is a delicious red colour, and I have made use of the Tesco frozen fruits, so you can get tasty fruits out of their normal season.

Blend for about a minute, until smooth, and enjoy.

I love making smoothies, as there is loads of fruit in every glass and they are really tasty. Any combination of fruit will do, and you don't have to use any specific amount, just whack it all in a blender. I make smoothies most days with whatever fruit is seasonal, or more often, on special offer from the supermarket, and I will just give you a quick run-down of what fruit combinations I have made.Ingredients1 bananaHandful of strawberriesHandful of Ice cubesFruit juiceChuck everything into a blender, using just enough fruit juice to cover over the fruit and ice cubes. Blend for probably about a minute, until it all looks smooth.This should make enough for about 2 decent sized glasses of smoothie.A handy tip is to put the fruit in the freezer for about 20 minutes before you make the sm

Some of you Candy Addicts may have never heard of Boyer’s Smoothie. It is the lesser known sibling of the popular Mallo Cup, and they’re both still made by the the Boyer Candy Company based in Altoona, Pennsylvania. The booming success of the Mallo Cup back during the 1940s led to the birth of the Smoothie along with its even lesser known counterpart The Peanut Butter Cup. The Smoothie is unlike any other candy cup on the market - it’s smooth peanut butter center is covered with butterscotch coating. I was lucky to find a package of Smoothies while on vacation in Florida, at the impressive Candy Kitchen. The package is very retro in design with it’s bold orange-red and golden color motif. The illustration is a tad misleading as it depicts the Smoothies as “taller” than what they actually are. The two cups are same size as the Mallo Cup and their color is a yellowish brown and reminds me of the Reeses’ Inside Out Peanut Butter Cups. The butte

Don't forget to top with some Mango cubes for that extra bite.You don't have to add ice cubes. I just want it less thick. And if your mango is sour, add some extra fine sugar or syrup to the blending. Okay, go grab some mangoes and a carton of fresh milk now!

The photo in this entry is Reconciliation. Photographed and edited by me, Lynda Walldez.I began making my own smoothies because I didn't want to buy overpriced ones at certain places that were already formulated a certain way.
