Our New BaaaaaaaaaaByyyyyyyyy

Take a look at our new baby, the BlendTec blender. From Heidi's endorsement and after we had three other blenders and one Kitchen Aid food processor go bad and quit working-we took the plunge$400.00 Isn't it beautiful.
After we watched the video that shows the guy blending a golft club, a rake, his ipod and a bunch of baseballs, this was my first blend. I put the whole orange with peel on, some ice and water. It went to town and I got fresh orange juice.
I like the taste of the peel, but Dad doesn't.
This is a peeled grapefruit and peeled orange combo. It was tasty.


Strawberries, bluberries, rasberries and ice. This was so good. The colors are so fun to create.



The blender comes with a book of recipies. This one was avacado, spinach, cucumber. I love the color and the taste is wonderful. Since then I have made carrot juice, carrot and pear juice, guacamole dip and the best ever salsa with just a can of tomotoes, onions, jalapeno pepper and cilatro. I am so happy blending away. I'm trying to fill up on good foods and not eat the other stuff that tempts me. There is however, a whole chapter in the book on desserts.
