Good morning!
Eric and I are knee deep in transferring OSG to a new host today! After a lot of research we decided to go with a Virtual Private Server with Dreamhost. We are hoping that everything is finished by the end of today. Depending on how long it takes to sync the domain name (ohsheglows.com) to the DNS (domain name servers), there is a potential that you will hit the “old” server if your name server has not updated the DNS entry. In other words, you may see my last post and the new posts may not show for several hours or longer. This depends on how long your Internet Service Provider caches the domain name. Hopefully it goes quickly. :)
Onto breakfast!
Despite being on my best behaviour last night and only having 1 drink, I woke up with another headache this morning. I decided to make this breakfast all about the liquids!
1) Fresh lemon + ginger juice:
Ingredients: 1 lemon, small piece ginger, water, ice.
This juice is not for the faint of heart, but my headache was gone in 30 mins!
2) Green Monster Power
Ingredients:
- 1 cup hemp milk
- 3 handfuls organic spinach
- 1/2 tsp Raw Maca Powder
- 1 tbsp cashew butter
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 scoop Amazing Grass Chocolate Amazing Meal
- Ice
Gulp, gulp.
Feeling amazing again. :)

Wow. Isn’t it amazing how eating the right foods can actually make you feel better instead of having to take medication for your headache? That’s the power of food for you!
Oh wow, I bet that juice was sour! But at least it’s a better hangover cure than pickle juice. Yuck!
i.need.a.juicer. :)
I wonder if I would like that lemon ginger concoction…I would probably have to sweeten it some since I’m a wuss. Good luck with the server changes.
Oh my gosh that lemon ginger concoction sounds intense! You are a brave lady!
thats pretty good that your headache went away that fast!
best of luck with changing hosts and stuff! i’m sure it will go smoooothe
Hope the transition goes smoothly for you!! :)
Ohh, that juice does sound very “strong” – glad it got rid of the headache though!! I only had one drink last night but it hit me harrrd. haha I conked out so quickly last night. I want a juicer so badly!! All of your concoctions look fabulous.
such a good combo. green juices always look intimidating but ive come to enjoy the simplicity of drinking just greens. i think lemon is a must tho.. need a little zip to drink the greens. <3
Your green monsters always look SO GREEN and delicious!! Yum!
The lemon juice looks delish – I love the addition of ginger!
Good luck on transferring everything over. I hope it all goes smoothly for you.
Wow – that must have been one powerful juice!! You are brave girl!!!
Fresh lemon and ginger juice just sounds fabulous! Very refreshing.
Wait, do lemon juice & ginger do something specific for headaches? I get headaches like no other (especially the morning after any amount of alcohol) & this would make me so happy. Plus, it sounds delicious!
I don’t know specifically anything that it does for headaches, except that it helps mine for some reason! Lemon is supposed to be a good detox and ginger good for the tummy tho. I think it is mostly the water that does it for me (dehydration!)
That looks like a HUGE green smoothie. Yum!!
Love LOVE your GM glass!!!
Thanks for the Tolle quote, it hit home with me this morning. Good luck with your server transfer!
I think I need one of those juices right about now! And thanks for the smoothie recipes link, perfect for summer :)
I absolutely looove that glass your GM is in! I want that!
