- We've added not only kale to our smoothies, but also wheat germ. They look a little gross - with little green bits - but they taste just like before. So our smoothie recipe for two is as follows:
-2 cups assorted frozen fruit (our mix has melon, strawberries, pineapple, peaches and mangoes)
-3/4 cup lowfat yogurt
-3/4 cup juice - we use Pomegranate Blueberry V8 Fusion or Cranberry Pomegranate
-3/4 cup water
-2 T wheat germ
-1 leaf of Kale - stem removed
- We also made bread and muffins, substituting 1/2 cup of wheat germ for flour. Both still tasted great, and were a little extra healthy!
- Our ice cream maker is here!! We made French Vanilla Cookies and Cream ice cream and it's super yummy!! I'm excited that we can have ice cream and know everything that's in it. It reminds me of the commercial for Breyer's (I think) where they talk about being able to pronounce all the ingredients.
- The unpacking of our house is moving very, very slowly. This is a picture of the living room. We don't have very much to go in the living room, so none of this really belongs there. We're making progress this week though.
- Our apples seem to be multiplying - as you'd expect. In a weeks time, 6 cubic feet of apples fell off the tree. It took Aaron and I about a half hour to pick all the apples out of the yard.
- And my favorite Laffy Taffy joke so far..."Why did the cow wear a bell around it's neck?" Check the comments for the answer :-)
