My Big Break?
I wanted to write and let everyone know why it has been awhile since I last posted.
I have been busy fielding calls from reporters. ;) My mom and I are in the May 2010 issue of the Baltimore Magazine!
A couple months ago, I won tickets via twitter for a bridal show, so we decided to check it out. We were in the food line when a photographer asked us to get together with some strangers for a picture. At least I didn't have a big plate of food in my hand, although that would probably be more appropriate.
Fruity Food
I finally decided to try out the Banana Soft Serve that I have been reading about for so long. It promised to "change my life" and taste like ice cream, so I had to try it for myself! I did change it up slightly and added in frozen strawberries.
Looks like ice cream, huh? I was shocked too!
The ingredient list is short: frozen bananas and frozen strawberries. Both were fresh before I sliced and froze overnight. Mixed together in the Food Processor for a few minutes.
The verdict? Pretty amazing how much this tastes like real ice cream. I love it! We are now going through more bananas than ever before.
The warm weather has me on a fruit kick lately, so the other day I made fruit salsa.
Although slightly labor intensive, this is my favorite way to use up excess fruit.
Mixed together with whatever jam you have on hand. I used Grandmom's Peach Jam.
Use cinnamon sugar pita chips for dipping. Or just eat with a spoon.
Massage
A few weeks ago I won a free 30 minute extremity massage from Claire Taylor Massage and cashed it in almost immediately after winning.
I arrived and quickly became relaxed by the soothing atmosphere and cool music. I thought this 30 minute massage hit all the important places. Shoulders, arms, feet, hands, neck, and head. I definitely plan to going back and highly recommend it to anyone in the Baltimore area. Thanks for a great giveaway Claire. The ones that I win are the best!

I just came across your blog and I love it! I am really interested in healthy food for athletes-- the frozen banana/strawberry combo is a must try. I'm going to be making this over the weekend and will definitely blog about it! Thank you so much and keep up the great posts.
