I feel pretty good having 2 big green smoothies today. I had one in the morning just before heading off for class and ... here's the recipe:
2 handfuls of organic spinach ( I used baby spinach )
2 large bananas
A little water ( to get it blending)
10 grapes
Ice ( I usually use 1 tray of ice as I like it really cold)
Result: Really creamy, sweet and no taste of spinach. This made about 800 ml and made me feel really energized and I wasn't hungry till lunch.. which is an improvement since I usually get tempted to snack on something in the late morning.
I felt so good that it made me have another smoothie when I got back. This time I included 2 medium leaves of organic rommaine lettuce and instead of using grapes 1 blended it with 10 large strawberries.
I guess I'm almost meeting my target of having 64oz of green smoothie a day (about 2 litres) :D

Today's Green Smoothie
Since I'm in London now, I could finally go back to my rountine of making green smoothies with Organic Spinach and Kale. I couldnt find these 2 in Germany for some absurd reason, maybe they are not in season, so here's the recipe:
- handful of Organic Kale
- handful of Organic Spinach
- 2 stocks of Organic Celery
- 3 Organic Kiwis
- 1 tablespoon of Organic Raw Honey,
- about 8 ice cubes( it makes it taste better ;) )
- half a lemon( juice)
- 2 large bananas or 3 medium ones
I get the organic vegetables and fruits from Tesco's and they are surprisingly cheap.
I was so happy to find organic, raw honey in Holland & Barrett's and it was only £ 3,90 for 340 g.
According to the cover, its totally raw as its cold pressed, with pollen and fresh from the hive so it has all the good stuff in it :)

Praha
I was so grateful to have visited Prague since it's so beautiful.
Amsterdam used to be my favourite city : canals and the beautiful houses along them; the sophisticated city culture and its vibrant life but now Prague's taken over ;)
Im inlove with Prague now :D . I took hundreds of pictures but decided to only edit and upload afew so you get the essence of my trip and Prague :)
I like how Prague is so vibrant with an amazing nighlife scene, abundant shopping areas, cheap and good restaurants and people from all over the world.
I spent 3 nights in st. Christopher's Inn and I was beyond impressed. The hostel was well decorated and it even had a large common room which was designed in a gothic team which large comfy sofas and big tables. Free wifi in the whole hostel and the rooms where clean and the breafast buffet for about 5 euros had a wide variety of food ranging from cereals to cured meat, fruits, potatoes, bread and pastries. Ofcourse coffee, tea and juice too ;)
It was really cheap too. It was about 4 euros for the first night in the 26 person dorm( which was clean, neat and quiet), and 8 euros for the next two nights. So all in all, I was really happy with the accomodation :D
First up, this was Paul. A great start to my day :) A popular french bakery/cafe chain. It had delicious pastries, quality tea, coffe and other breakfast menus, since I went there in the morning.
Torture Room in the Prague castle. It showcased how people used to be tortured in the past :/
Took this during my sunday walk around Prague. I was lucky since the sun was out and people were out and about.
I find it interesting how they have random old stones fitted into the walls of buildings :D
Coulourful hand made magents in a tiny shop in the Prague Castle area. Cute.
