Nutrition
Did you ever notice how laying around and being lazy doesn’t really feel that good after a while. Something that feels much better is having a purpose and staying busy. The bible mentions slothfulness so many times, it’s not easy to count. Staying busy has it’s reward.
Proverbs 13:4
The soul of the sluggard craves and gets nothing, while the soul of the diligent is richly supplied.

I love making orange and mint water!! Thank you for all your amazing recipes! What do you do with the leftover citrus peels? Is there anything to do with them besides eat the fruit? I am looking for ways to not waste.

The fruit becomes pretty mushy and pulpy and not very appetizing after floating around in the water. You can eat it, but just understand that it doesn't look great. You can use the peels down your garbage disposal to freshen that or you can allow them to sit in a bowl on the counter for a few hours before giving them a toss and some of their perfume may raise into the air. You can also add them to your compost pile to make dirt for your summer garden!
