Cinnamon Apple Oatmeal Smoothie
Got a smoothie for you today with some weird ingredients. Oatmeal (but you’ve seen me do that again and again! and again! ) and an apple. Blended with some more common smoothie ingredients. It’s cinnamony deliciousness first thing in the morning. That tastes like oatmeal cookie batter. Soooo happy.

New Flora: Sea Lemon + Hot Toddy Recipe
Look at the crazy thing I found at the farmer’s market this weekend! No, it’s not actually called a sea lemon. It’s called a fingered citron or a Buddha’s hand. But the lovely lady at the farmer’s market stand said she likes to name each one individually depending on what it looks like – she…
