Natural Hair: How I'm wearing my hair this Winter!

Hello friends,


I wanted to share how I will be wearing my hair this winter season. I typically don't wear my hair out loose. I love twisting my hair to create updos. I typically wear my hair in the same manner week to week, month to month, year to year lol. It just works very well for me, because it's easy and oh so convenient. I can't complain.

I simply gathered my hair towards the back with a small bun at the nape of my neck.

If you have any questions about how I created this look and what I used to create this look, simply comment below. Don't forget to use the reaction button, it let's me know what you like and don't like.

Hello friends,

I'm back with another smoothie recipe. . . my daily green deliciousness.
In case you missed green smoothie recipes 1 and 2 oh, and this recipe.
green smoothie recipe at www.liliashealthbook.blogspot.com
The benefits of green smoothies are numerous. Just google it. Just know that I drink 16oz of pure, green deliciousness either for breakfast and/or dinner for overall health.

Now....the recipe! (Oh, this is my own recipe!! Sometimes I substitute the pear for an apple)

1 frozen banana
1 cup of kale
½ cup of spinach leaves
1 pear (very ripe)
~½ cup of coconut water
3 stalks of celery
2 tbsps of lemon juice

This recipe should make 2 cups. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. You can always substitute various fruits and vegetables. You never have to stick to a certain recipe. That's what so unique about green smoothies: Anyone can make them with whatever one chooses.

Please let me know if you tried this particular recipe in the comments section. I would love to hear what you think. 

Take care,
