Good Morning Girls,
I'm sure by the time you read this, I'll be in Wisconsin sharing a long weekend with most of you. It should be a great family bonding experience.
Last week I took Nate and went to State Fair with dad, Dayna and Logan. It was so fun to bring our four-year olds and enjoy the smells, sounds and sights of the fair. I love that atmosphere! We also had to stop by the Vita-Mix demo and taste the green smoothie.. We all loved it, even the little boys. I do love green smoothies, not only how they taste, but the nutrition they are packed with. One thing I learned was that lime is wonderful addition to a green smoothie...so refreshing. I had to try it on my kids the next day and they really liked it as well. I think the citrus helps mask the kale taste and I also added more spinach that I have been lately. I only put in about 1/8 of a lime, peel and all. Wash it well before using it, but you'll be surprised by the great flavor it adds. This morning we had another green smoothie and this is what I added: spinach, flax seed, water, pineapple, bananas, apples and about 1 Tblsp. apple juice concentrate with some water and ice. You all know that I love my vita-mix and green smoothies is one of the reasons why.
Enjoy your day!

I'm not sure where you are in WI, but we're having great weather right now, so I hope you're having a lot of fun!
Of course because we came from 80 degree weather, it is cold here!! I hope the weather gets better for the weekend. :) We are here visiting my sister Katie...a great family weekend!
What fun we had here in Wisconsin! Loved the smoothies you made for us during your visit. Thanks for sharing, Ames!
