Jessy is tired.
No one can imagine the amount of fruit, milk, and ice and the number of curse words I have expended toward this goal over the years.
Finally, I did it! I put a frozen banana, some crushed ice, some orange juice, and a mostly-frozen sugarless Mighty Shake in the blender (not all at once, experience was my friend here).
Now mind you, I still had to stop the blender several times and stir around, and several of my most creative curses were required to complete the process. I also messed up the counter and got all sticky myself.
However, the product was the stuff of magazine articles, the ones that say “just toss a few frozen fruits, a bit of crushed ice, and a dollop of orange juice and whirl in the blender.” Yea, right! If anyone, ANYONE, has ever made a smoothie with that little effort, I would like to meet that person and beat him up . . . err, I mean shake his hand. I would also like to knock out the teeth of anyone who uses the word “just” in front of the description of the process of making a smoothie.
Hmm, do smoothies cause violent thoughts? Anyway, mine were delicious, and hubby and I enjoyed them for breakfast!
