Top 10 Movies I Would Rewatch

Since I just graduated from high school and am now in summer, I have had so much more time to watch different genres of movies, from horror to romantic comedies. I have a tendency to watch movies I love multiple times, so many times that I can practically recite every line and know exactly what is coming next along with when to become sad, happy, scared, etc. Although many people may think that watching the same movie over and over again is ridiculous, that is something I love to do. Because of this, I wanted to list my top 10 movies that I love so much that I could watch them multiple times. 1. The Fault In Our Stars (movie based off of the book) 2. The Hangover (all 3 movies) 3. 21 and 22 Jump Street 4. Finding Nemo 5. Sixteen Candles 6. 500 Days of Summer 7. Up 8. Love Actually 9. Blended 10. Titanic

Soba Noodle Recipe

My dad found this recipe online and because it looked delicious, we both tackled the recipe for dinner one night, with me cooking the soba (buckwheat) noodles and making the sauce, while my dad cut up all the vegetables and prepped all the other ingredients. After putting all the ingredients together and mixing the noodles in the sauce, we sampled our finished product. To my amazement, it was delicious! I had about 2-3 bowls of it for dinner, and because I was so obsessed with this recipe, I thought I would share it so you could make it as well.

Green Smoothie

Going along with the salad recipe I posted last week, I wanted to share a recipe of a green drink/smoothie that my parents drink pretty much every morning. This green drink is going along with the whole kale and greens smoothie product that is trending right now, and this smoothie my parents make is so delicious that I had to share the recipe. Ingredients: 1. Lettuce 2. Kale or Spinach 3. Bundle of celery 4. 1 lemon, halved (only half of a lemon is used in this recipe) 5. 1 granny smith apple 6. 1 banana 7. 1 pear 8. Tap water 9. Vitamix blender or any large blender Procedure: 1. Wash and chop up multiple sticks of celery from the bundle or as many until you are satisfied. Do the same with the lettuce. Then put all of that into the blender and add in your un-chopped kale as well. Fill up your blender 3/4 of the way with greens. 2. Add enough water so it covers the majority of the greens. Then blend for 1 minute or until everything is mixed evenly and a liquid is present,...
