This is the green smoothie I had yesterday for breakfast. I made a full blender and saved a second quart which I had for dinner last night. My days are sometimes so hectic that a smoothie is all I have time to to chug down! If I didn't have one ready I would end up starving and eating who knows what!
My baby, 17 year old Suzanne, has gone to work. She works four days a week at a clothing store and then she dances and teaches dance in the evenings. My older daughter works full time as a hair dresser and dances evenings with Suzanne. My son and his wife live in a nearby town but are now working in Jacksonville. I am left alone at home all day with all the babies! I have my grandsons, four year old Christopher and 3 month old Paxton, and my friends grandson, 8 month old Gavin. Some days all is calm and well but other days it is quite chaotic. Thank heavens for my vita mix and green smoothies!
As our food tastes change our television tastes change too. My daughters have been fans of Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill. I have watched them with them in the past. Last night they were conflicted because of the return of Heroes in the same time slot. I told them they could watch Heroes and I would watch the other two and tell them what happened. I found both shows so silly and boring that I fell asleep. I apologized but told them they would have to choose between the two in the future. They turned Heroes off because they said it was too gory and violent for them. They agreed about the other two and we all went to bed.
I did leave the television on to see the fate of Horatio on CSI but did not enjoy that show as much as usual either. All of this is fine with me as I would happily live without a TV but am having trouble convincing anyone else that this is a good idea.
Tasha and I did watch Baby Mama yesterday. As expected, it is silly and the plot is predictable, but Tina Fey and and Am Poehler are so funny together! They play off each other so well that we really liked the movie.
Have you seen it? Have you seen the raw vegan restaurant scene? I tried to be offended by that but really couldn't because it was so absurd. What could a yeast ball be? It looked like a ball of raw bread dough. The last two times I went to a raw food restaurant I got violently ill. The food was delicious but something in it just did not set well with me. I have heard some complaints about the scene from raw foodies but do not think anyone would take this as a serious representation, it was your standard health nuts are nuts scene. We can deal with that, can't we? If we can't laugh at ourselves we can't expect to influence anyone in a positive way anyway. If they had showed a real raw restaurant it would not have been funny because the food they serve looks just like cooked food. :)
I did like the yes we have no bananas smoothie and thought I might try to create one, but I cannot imagine a smoothie without bananas!
Well, that was my day, how was yours?
