Spring is Coming!

Happy March 1st everyone!! 


Did you have a good extra day of February yesterday?! I am thrilled that it is finally March! I'm pretty certain that Spring is beginning! Flowers are beginning to rise and bloom!


St. Patrick's Day is coming up and I cannot wait! My bestie will be in town to celebrate with me! I have always enjoyed celebrating St. Patty's Day, but since I found out that my Great, Great Grandfather was born in Belfast, Ireland, it makes the holiday much more meaningful! I can actually say I have Irish blood (even if it's a tiny bit)!

With every holiday comes the holiday decorations! I found this adorable Shamrock Welcome wooden sign (at JoAnn Fabrics) to paint and hang on the door:





The Dollar Tree has some cute St. Patty's Day decorations too! Last year I got some necklaces, tiny hats, headband, scarf, shamrock trinket dish, and a bowtie! This year I ran in and bought some green flowers to put in our vases by the door. I found the most adorable St. Patrick's Day flag from Hallmark!




I am also a fan of the shamrock shake from McDonalds, although, I am not a fan of the amount of calories that are included! I have been doing some pinning, and soon I'll be trying to make a healthier version of the shamrock shake! I'll have that in another post, so keep an eye out! :)

Speaking of green, and healthy, I received a few free samples of Green Superfood by Amazing Grass!






So far, I have tried out the Goji & Acai berry flavor. It definitely was GREEN! I barely tasted the berry flavor though. It wasn't a bad taste at all, but it wasn't what I was expecting. I think it would be better in a smoothie with more fruit to enhance the flavor. The fact that it plant based and packed with alkaline is the whole point. It is meant to bring more nutrients to your body. 
"Our Amazing Grass Green Food Blend includes a proprietary combination of organic, non-GMO wheat grass, barley grass, alfalfa, spirulina, spinach, chlorella, and broccoli." (https://www.amazinggrass.com/store/green-superfood-berry.html).
I know that I don't get nearly enough nutrients throughout the day, so a bottle of this superfood is a good supplement! 
Check out their website for more information: Amazing Grass

I received this product for free/discounted however this in no way influenced my review. I only write honest reviews regardless of whether I purchased a product at full price, at a discount, or received it free.

Question Time:

* Do you celebrate St. Patrick's Day?

* What are you looking forward to the most this Spring?

* Would you try the green superfood supplement by Amazing Grass?
