No more special occassion to start anything special! Everyday is special :)


I'm pretty excited to try out Juvo to see if I can stand the "green taste" hehe.
But what is Juvo? And what attracts me to it?


1. JUVO is a plant-based vegetarian meal: Organic whole grains, vegetables, sea vegetables and mushrooms make up the premium vegetarian ingredient list.


2. JUVO is a living and uncooked vegetarian food: Over 25 natural ingredients are freeze-dried to protect essential nutrients and retain freshness.

3. JUVO is a complete whole food meal, full of nutrition but low-calorie: Perfect for weight loss in a healthy natural way.

Sounds sooo perfect. I know best is if you eat fresh food. But I know for sure I dont have time to cook. (maybe too lazy hehe)

For the above, I took it with a juice recipe (my own).
I blended:
- Red apple
- Pear
- Blueberries
- 2 Sunsweet prunes
- 1 Lemon cube
- 2 tbsp of Juvo.
- Half cup of water

This blend gave me about 2.5 cups of fibre rich juice. So yummy!
Something that I will do again and again, but maybe change some fruits for a different kick :)

I don't find the Juvo awful or smelly. Slightly green smell, and taste a little like wheatgrass. But once you mix it into juice, you wont even notice it.

A good buy I'd say.
Price is RM160. (hefty heh?) from Justlife shops.
I got it on a 20% discount :)

I found it! At last no more exclusively sold at Coffee Bean :D
Got this at my local Tesco, and whats more likeable is the price - RM5.59!

This is at least 50% of what I'm paying Coffee Bean.
*grins*

It's Saturday afternoon again! Meaning me time..
Let's enjoy a cup of peppermint tea, shall we?
After a meaty dim sum brunch, let's lend a helping hand to the digestive system..

Oh, did you know it also contains B vitamins, calcium, potassium and it prevents gallstones?



Twinings Says:

Twinings Pure Peppermint Herbal Tea is made from 100% select peppermint leaves and is naturally caffeine free. Enjoy either hot or iced for an uplifting and refreshing herbal tea experience.


Foxy Frangipani Says:
This is a rather mild infusion.
Smells really minty and strong, but surprisingly when sipped I don't find it cooling / minty...

First infusion of 5 mins steeping gave me very dark cup of tea... Mmmm nice and soothing. Second infusion is just as strong... It gets thinner after the 3rd :)

I like that it is caffeine free :)
Have you tried this?

I bought these during my Taiwan trip back in October last year (whoa, "last year" already!)

It comes in a medium sized plastic container, and the pic above is the remaining 1/3.. Very crunchy, and not too sweet. Pleasant for afternoon snack.

Made of white and black sesame, imagine the goodness it does to my hair!
