A not completely healthy snack

I apologize for the lack of post last week but I was on a wonderful trip in the Spanish mountains.

A Paddy's Day Smoothie

This second element is potential trouble if you over-do things tonight. So I decided to take this oppertunity to show you my St Paddy's style way of getting over the night before - a green smoothie.
