Purple Pudding

A little bit GELATINOUS this one is...
Actually... MORE than a little...
A LOT gelatinous....
I could have added more water but I just "WENT" with it....

Looking back on it...
I realize its because I used all FRESH produce.
Fresh as in "WARMISH"..not as in Fresh "FROZEN
Sooo... That is what accounts for the GELATINOUSNESS of the Smoothie...therefore the name PUDDING was chosen...

Let's start with a HANDFUL of fresh strawberries...
These ones are even fresh LOCAL strawberries...


Handful Shot:


Blender Shot A:

Yes...the above shot does look BEAUTIOUS...
AND....
It most probably WOULD have been BROWN...
...BUT
I just purchased a lovely bag of frozen CANADIAN blueberries and decided I NEEDED to POP some into the MIX.


Blender Shot B:

Do you ever look at a word sometimes and think...WAIT a minute!!
...is that how you SPELL it...????
usually its when i use the word OVER and OVER again....
For example... the word SHOT...
Right now I am thinking...Whoa...
Is that EVEN a word?
It looks WIERD.
But I googled it JUST to make sure...


Ta Da!!

The Spinacher

This is the most "SPINACHY" tasting smoothie I've made to date.
Spinachy in a GOOD way...
SPINACHY SWEET!
HOORAY for SPINACH!!!

I dont know about you....but I ALWAYS spell spinach WRONG.
Obviously I have made an effort here...but something in my bring wants to write SPINICH.

ZUCHINNI is another one...

But I DIGRESS...

So... Here we go...


Pre-Blend

I love the look of FROSTED FRUIT!
And LOOK!!!!
I've even captured a FACE on the SPINIACH LEAF...
How cool is THAT?


Post-Blend

Doesn't look like anything SUPER FANTASTICOLA...
But I give it a THUMBS UP!

Post-Slurp
