One of my other virtual friends, natural mom, Carrie Lauth, recommends smoothies for all sorts of good reasons like:

• made from the most basic of ingredients,
• take only minutes to whip up,
• can be endlessly customized to suit your needs,
• taste delicious,
• are very nutritious and can be chock full of vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients,
• an easy way to get said nutrients into your kids’ tummies without them knowing.

Carrie is also a smart Web 2.0 entrepreneur and as such, has published a new e-book filled with more than 40 recipes that guide you in the creation of a quick, healthy and natural snack in a tumbler. For just $5, The Simply Delicious and Nutritious Smoothie Cookbook can be in your hands in minutes thanks to the wonders of the digital age.

Carrie Lauth is the host of Natural Moms Talk Radio. She’s a single work-at-home Mom of 4 (boy 9, boy 7, girl 5 and girl 2). She says, “The kids are homeschooled and are in charge of gathering the eggs every morning and putting the hens back in the cage at night.”

Carrie and her guest bloggers, Marcie and Elizabeth, share thoughts, tips and news about natural parenting -  everything from home birthing to breastfeeding, homeschooling, and everything in between.
