Yoga compared to other workouts
I have just started using yoga as a form of exercise. Does anyone else enjoy it? And how to do you feel it compares to other forms of exercising? Obviously yoga isn't a high calorie burn workout, but I find it extremely relaxing. Does anyone have any good insight about yoga in general?

A Free Day

Search for some good smoothies
I am really interested in making smoothies. The ones with bananas tend to only taste like bananas even with other fruit. And I am not a huge fan of bananas. I do love berries, and other fruits like oranges and apples and things, so if anyone has any recipes that they love please share! I would love to use them as an option…
