My Broccoli Plant

I made these self watering containers awhile ago, they are super easy and in expensive. Anyways, I planted a broccoli plant and it has finally started to grow a little broccoli, it's so cute. The plant itself has been growing for awhile, but with not broccoli. I went to fill up the reservoir, which I've only done a few times and there it was, a tiny little broccoli.

My New Jack LaLanne Power Juicer

Jack LaLanne’s Power Juicer Deluxe

After watching all the commercials for juicers over the years, I finally purchased the Jack LaLanne Power Juicer Deluxe ($89.99 @ Costco). After bringing it home and juicing for the first time, I was so excited and wanted to share my thoughts.

Pros
• Affordable (89.99), this was the best price anywhere
• Not only is the product affordable, but it also makes drinking organic juice more affordable
• Easy to assemble
• Easy to use
• Easy to clean, under 5 minutes for me.
• Delicious fresh juice
• You can make whatever kind of juice you want out of almost any fruits and vegetables
• You can use the leftover pulp for baking and cooking
• You can make yummy soups
• Minimal storage space
• Minimal cutting of fruits and vegetables
• Not to mention all of the health benefits of drinking fresh juice

Cons
• It’s best if you drink the juice right away, most of the juices don’t store well, but you can freeze the pulp for later use
• You have to wash the juicer after every use. It’s best if you do it right away, but it takes me under 5 minutes to do it and if you just think of it as part of making juice it’s really not that bad

My favorite juice recipe so far

5 organic carrots
3 small organic apples (I like pink ladies)

* Juice the carrots first and you can save the pulp to make things like carrot muffins, carrot cake or put it in meatloaf for extra veggies.
