Fresh Picks

For the past and coming days, hubby and I have the opportunity to shop for our own food and cook them the way we want it.

I always make sure that there is lemon in all our juicings because of its great health benefits even if it is a bit expensive. Here they are - all juiced and ready for stirring:

Healthy and Yum-o! at the same time :)
