Will it blend?

Say it ain't green?


The idea of a green smoothie has been an interesting one to me. Most people I know would love to try a smoothie made out of banannas and pineapples etc, but not many have jumped at the idea of trying one made with Kale or romaine lettuce. We were in Costco a month or so ago and this amazing piece of creation caught out eye.
We stalked it for a few weeks and were able to get a good deal on it. Anna has even been heard calling it her "NEW LOVE". Who would have thought that I would have been replaced by a blender. It is pretty useful and I am starting to see where she is coming from. We have a short video that follows that shows you one of our green smoothie creations.
We are still working on the recipe daily to get it just right for a good ole St. Patrick's day celebration. A.J. thinks we are crazy but little does he know that he will soon get to experience the yummy green treats for himself. Yes...... thats right green smoothies for dogs. Oh Boy!
You can watch other videos of the blender in action at

Other than the blender we have started watching season one of Prison Break. It is a show that we have wanted to watch for a long time but quit because we missed most of the episodes. We are almost through seaon one. Sorry this is short but gotta get focused on more Prison Break and progress reports for school. Oh Boy!

Hope everyone is well and that everyone actually not just reads the blog but starts leaving us comments. It is easy to do!

Here are some pictures of flowers that I got Anna for Valentines day. She is such a great wife and deserves everything in the world. The flowers just help radiate her beauty! Enjoy.



This is really the size of her heart. I thought it fit.

Here is the video. Click on it to start it. Hopefully you like it. It may even inspire you to start your own green smoothie revolution. Good luck! Sorry the video is sideways. It just adds to the experience.
