Ninja

So.... We finally bit the bullet and got the blender supreme. I have looked long and hard at the Vitamix, the Blendtec, etc and when the Ninja came out, I really looked at all the reviews etc.
 Every one I know that owns one LOVES IT!
So, with my trusty 20%off coupon, I marched into Bed, Bath and Beyond and got the blender.
So in the past week, I have lost 3.5 lbs and have more energy. Some of the great drinks I am making are the "green drink" which consists of grapes, orange, banana, apple, spinach and kale


the beet and berry smoothie, which is part of a beet (fresh) blueberries, strawberries, organic honey, and lots of ice

but it is blending EVERYTHING. 
I made homemade peanut butter the other day and it was fabulous. I am going to try a vegi drink later today.
I have learned how to do carrot juice and almond milk as well.


I think the biggest thing is that I am getting MORE than my 5 servings of vegies and fruits every day and I FEEL better....more energized which is GREATLY needed right now. 
So...it may not be running a marathon, or doing yoga or conquering the world,
BUT
it is changing my life...a day at a time!!
HIIIIYAAAA!!!!!
