Green Smoothie

We got a new blender. I think we about killed our old one doing some of stuff we were doing. It was making funny sounds the last time we made strawberry-banana rice dream. So we bought one that is made to do some heavy duty blending. Our first creation? A green smoothie with flax, spinach, strawberry and orange. Yum!

Everyone enjoyed it, including the youngest members of the clan. Megan, in particular, loved it and wanted more. They made sure to completely experience the smoothie (we gave it to them in a bowl, so it was pretty inevitable there would be a mess).

We had another one tonight--spinach, mango and orange this time. Really good. Megan kept wanting more and did a good job keeping herself clean. Matthew, well, he may have dumped some of his off onto the floor below. Making a big mess. But he did like it. He just seemed a little frustrated he couldn't feed it to himself better. Sarah and U and I all drank ours quite nicely out of our cups. Other blender creations include strawberry ginger salad dressing and strawberry-apple fruit leather.
