Green smoothie & Fruit smoothie!

Hellloooooo!

I must say, I have a love for fruit and also a big fan of vegetables too! So what better way to have them than putting them together and blending it up! YUM! (please say yum ahaa)

Earlier today I went down to Tesco and bought a whole load of fruit and veg and decided that i'll just experiment and mash thing together in a blender and hopefully it'll taste good!

Green smoothies are a great way to introduce or just get greens into your diet. (Especially if you have a fussy child who doesn't like to eat vegetables.)

Imaged below, I have shown three smoothies but the two shots of the green smoothie look pretty similar T.T but the consistency was slightly different.

Green Smoothie with scrambled egg. (It was my breakfast) 

Berry Smoothie

The green smoothieeeee

All I have to say is that if you haven't tried it yet, GO TRY IT! They are absolutely delicious!! Look how pretty it looks too! 

Smoothie 1:
1/2 avocado (Thickens whilst adding good fats)
A handful of spinach (LOVE spinach! If you don't, don't worry because once it's blended you can't taste a thing!)
orange juice (To try cancel out the veggie taste)
bunch of red grapes (to sweeten)
A stalk of celery (This has a more pungent taste so be wary when you use it)
Kale (High in Vitamins A & C )

Smoothie 2:
Frozen summer berries (Keeps the smoothie cool and sweet)
1/2 mango (texture and taste)
Bunch of red grapes (Gives a subtle sweetness)
Spinach (gotta have the greens!)
Strawberies (They taste delicious)

Smoothie 3:
This was similar to the smoothie no.1 but no celery was added and milk was used as the liquid.

Smoothies are so great because they're so versitile! You could put anything in there (providing the blender is powerful if testing with hard solids, otherwise you may just kill the motor on the blender).
But if you're a smoothie newbie, I found this post on pinterest a few months back and has the basics.





















Happy smoothie making guys!!!

Liese Ash Brown Hair dye *Review*

Helllooooo~ Summer time means lighter hair! (I know, this post is late *sigh*)  So i'm here to tell/show you guys what the Liese Ash brown hair dye is like! - WOOHOO! Ok, above is my hair without dying. It's very dark brown.  and then.... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. TADAAAAAAAAAA It actually turned out lighter then I suspected!  I left the dye on for an hour and followed the rest of the instructions as per normal.  My hair felt so soft! As for the colour, I was very pleasantly surprised! The ash tone did turn out well (although it made my face look so tanned *hehe*) and the colour was nice and vibrant. Sadly, after a few washes the ash tone kind of washed out, so now I have a slight red-y tone, but I already new that this would happen. So below, I posted a few more pictures so you can get more of a jist of the colour ^^ Oh...

Barcelona

This was the first trip i've ever gone with a group of friends; consisting of three people, excluding me. Two of which I had met through my University Halls and the other was my flatmates' friend from home. This experience was scary yet exciting. I would have never thought of going abroad with friends, as I have never felt that I would be very safe. However, I felt comfortable with my flatmates and hoping that I would be comfortable with the other friend too. The first day was not the best since I was quite badly ill from going out the night before we flew for a friends birthday. I remember waking up and feeling incredibly dizzy. I slept for a while, then ate some Pandol and slept again. I woke up refreshed! That Panadol was so strong! It probably had enhanced effects on me because I rarely take medicine when i'm unwell. The days consisted of walking, taking more photo's and walking again. We didn't really have a plan so we just improvised as the day came, which...
