I’ve just mentioned in my other post that I’ve been away from blogging for three months. There’s been no recipes, no health advice and no blender parties for that long – did you miss it all as much as I did?

Grape Chia Jelly Shots
I’ve been scambling to finish off multiple subjects this week, as the rollover for my new Naturopathy course starts next week and I want as much course credit as possible.
