After completing my Genealogy research and finding my Nani’s lost relatives all over the world, I decided to make a journal with my findings too.  Starting to share this journal with you today.

Introduction

I am really really excited about this post. I have been working on my Genealogy journal for a very long time now and I couldn’t wait to share it with you guys. Genealogy is a subject which one can never complete. So if I waited to finish it, it would really take a lifetime.

I had bought this scrapbook in 2007 from Paperchase in Seattle during a sale and never really decided what exactly I should do with it. Last year, I was excited with the idea of making a Genealogy journal in this, as this was the perfect size. I could still not fit in all my ancestors in it but its the best that I could do on paper.
I have my whole Genealogy on Ancestry website which has the details of my every known relative. It is very difficult to have your whole family tree on paper but the least I could do was try to fit some of them in.

I have finally finished taking pictures of it and I am going to start sharing it now. If you have read my Genealogy blog posts on my blog, then you would enjoy this journal more (Here is the link). I will start sharing it with you in parts as you may not get the time to see it all at once. So, here are the first few pages of it.

Replace one sugary drink — Coke, Red Bull, or a sports drink — with a green juice.
Just one.
Your body will feel the difference.

We were sold fake refreshment for years — Coke for thirst, Red Bull for energy, sports drinks for hydration.
But the real refreshment is leafy greens blended into a glass of green juice.

If you’re ready to switch from sugar to nourishment, reply ‘green juice’ and I’ll send you the article with my voicover.
