Beautifying Beet Smoothie

A luxuriously thick and creamy smoothie made with all natural proteins that will keep you satisfied and feeling BEAUTIFUL!

You GUYYYYYZ!!

Seriously, this smoothie rocks my socks…my blue, fuzzy, woolen socks! You know, the ones I have to wear each and every time I want to drink this…along with my baggy sweat pants, my oversized robe, and the “decorative” blanket from the back of the couch. Well, unless I’ve just come back from hot yoga.

Then I sit outside with it…in ma birfday suit! 😉

But that’s cool too, because you know what? This smoothie doesn’t judge. Nope, this smoothie is part of the new age movement…the one where ALL us ladies get to spend the day lounging on velvet couches, or sprawled out naked on our back porch*, and feeling like princesses.

*Privacy fence suggested to avoid public scrutiny and/or legal complications.

Because I swear to you, each time I take a sip of this silky smooth, decadently delicious smoothie, I feel like all the world melts away, I’m teleported to a castle perched high on far away mountain, and I’m pretty sure I can hear Prince Charming calling my name…

“Heather! Heather! I have more shoes for you to try on!”

Oh yes, I like this game.

But checking out the crazy good link ups over at Sprint 2 the Table is NOT! And I still think Laura looks pretty rad with her BEET-utiful hair piece! 😉
