Where has the time gone? Every year I age, I feel that the months and time goes faster and faster. In January, March seemed so far away and yet today I write this blog in March. Where did January and February go? February was a tough winter in Seattle, with countless snow days, something that hasn't happened since the 1930's. Normally, this time of year blossoms with bright pink flowers with petals flying through the wind.

If looking to add a bit of floral flavor to your smoothie this upcoming spring, add a hint of sweetness with rose syrup.

Strawberries and rose are quit a romantic combination, bursting with the beautiful color pink. Pink, created in the 17th Century, is associated with charm, politeness, sensitivity, tenderness, sweetness, childhood, femininity and the romantic. Pink also symbolizes unconditional love and nurturing as well as compassion and empathy. In romance, it's nurturing quality balances the art of giving and receiving love, and understands and respects the necessity of both. 

The spring solstice is on its way, and if looking to color your home and soul with pink, here is a splendid smoothie that integrates health with the sweet side of life.
