Winter Greens and Citrus Salad

I feel so grateful that I live in the Pacific Northwest. Not to rub it in to those who just experienced another snowstorm or anything, but we have had a gloriously mild winter. And right now as I type this, there are already blossoms and leaf buds on trees. There are daffodils in full bloom. The sun is shining brightly and the temperatures are steadily in the 50s each day. It's spring and I am loving it. It's especially special this year because I have little Hazel to share it with!








One of the perks of winter is all the amazing citrus that's in season. It's as if mother nature knew that we needed a little extra sunshine and vitamin C, so she grew us some citrus at the perfect time of the year. I love having all types of citrus on hand throughout the winter. Our fridge is always packed with grapefruits, blood oranges, mandarins, and navels. It's funny because I distinctly remember last winter when I was pregnant, I practically ate two grapefruits a day. I was obsessed with them.

So to all of you lovely readers who are stuck in the grips of winter still, I've created this salad that's the perfect little bit of sunshine to get you through the last of the cold weather. It provides a boost of all sorts of vitamins and minerals, plus it looks gorgeous on a platter. I'm sending warm vibes your way, loves!

  4. My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough. here is his Email: emutemple@gmail.com or call/text him on his WhatsApp +2347012841542

    He is also able to cast spell like 1: Lottery 2: Conceive 3: Breakup 4: Divorce 5: Cure for all kinds of diseases and viruses.
