On Rainy days like These...

Pit er Patter... How I love the sound of rain falling quietly on the rooftops.

Lots of school gets finished. Knitting or sewing is pulled out.

Hot tea and tasty treats. Fuzzy blankets and soft socks.

Mid afternoon naps, Evening Cuddles.

Silly movies, and funny Games, maybe even a puzzle or two!

Just some of the things I enjoy while it rains... like today!

What do you like to do when it rains??

I have started to Shred... New Adittion: Be Healthy Monday

So I thought I would start your Mondays off with a little Be Healthy Monday every week!

For my birthday my siblings felt the need for me to tone my body up a bit, so they bought me....

Wait for it...


And some dumbbells.

Arnt they nice :)

No really I actually asked for it. I have check out Jillian's workouts and I liked the way she did the 30 day shred.

The time is perfect for me and the work outs kill me.

I am not really looking to lose weight, just to tone up a little.

Yesterday was my first day I almost died...

Here is what I am going to do.

- Eat healthier

- Drink Water

- Ride my horses (hey you don't know how many of your leg muscles you use riding)

- Drink smoothies for Breakfast

- Oh and do the 30 day shred every day except for Saturday.


I am not weighing my self, I am not taking pictures, I am not even measuring my self.

I am just going to tell Yall how I am doing every week and give you some tips, recipes, and tricks that help me eat and exercises.

You wanna join me?? Lets eat healthy till Christmas!

Have a great week,
xo Beatrice

About Myra and HerbanLuxe

Myra is mom to three barmy girls - Jean-A'Layn, Stephanie and Isabela.  By day, she  works from her home as a Corporate Instructional Designer; but here alther-ego is very much a mad scientist.
When Myra was about 11, her abuela began teaching her how to work with herbs for healing purposes. Her abuela also taught her how to make makeup using natural ingredients such as herbs, natural clays and more.  When her abuela's parkinson made it difficult for her to hold a cup in her hands, Myra became her abuela's hands mixing and making concoctions.
About 10 years ago her craft became a business.  In 2007, I had the unique privilege of appearing on the Oprah Winfrey Show as a finalist in her search for the next big idea. In 2009, she sold her business AND NOW she caters to  her favorite group of people, savvy Etsy shoppers who appreciate all the goes into making anything handmade.


Here are some questions I asked Myra....


What is your favorite fall/winter drink? 
My fall/winter drink is - Coquito.  I'm from Puerto Rico and Coquito is the equivalent to eggnog in the US {minus the egg and the nog}.  It's a concoction of  coconut milk, cream of coconut, evaporated milk, cinnamon sticks, nutmeg, vanilla and lots and lots of Puerto Rican Rum.


Coffee or Tea?
Both - coffee in the morning and tea in the afternoon


Favorite Quote?
I'm a Dr. Seuss fanatic and actually have more than one favorite quotes, but my top two are:

"Why fit it when you were born to stand out?"  and
"Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting. So...get on your way"

Life without Color???...

Can you even wonder what life would be like if there was NO color... all just like a blank slate.

White?? Maybe gray?? but definitely NOT colorful!!
I think we would die.. or would we actually know any different??

Would we ever be happy?

There definitely wouldn't be any cameras, fun kids parties.. celebrations, laughter.

If I think about it too much.. I just realize how blessed we are to live with color.

It changes with the seasons... we can cause something to change colors with pencils, or pens.. or Photoshop..

I am SO glad and Blessed to be surrounded by colorful people, nature, family.....

EVERYTHING!

What are you thankful for?
