Vitamix

I hate to be so quiet on the blog lately, but things are not really working out in my favor. 

For Valentine's day, I decided I would finally share some of my favorite wedding pictures.  Then we lost power for 5 days due to the ice storm.  Womp Womp.  I really shouldn't complain as we had a warm and comfy place to stay (thanks to my new in-laws), but being away from home during the week really upsets my routine.

And of course, last night as I sat down write my wedding post I discovered we had no internet connection.  Why you ask? Because our satellite cable provider, who shall remain nameless, decided to cut the cable that provides our high speed internet as they were re-hanging some lines that came down in the storm.  UGH.  Oh well, we still have glorious power so I can't complain too much. 

Anyway, today I just wanted to share my newest investment.  And I do mean investment.  The Vitamix!  I decided to bite the bullet once my friend and office-mate Lindsey told me that they sell certified refurbished ones for a fraction of the price, and also made me a delightful kale smoothie that made me feel super-healthy.

I can't wait to try out some new recipes.  Lindsey's kale, green apple, banana, vanilla protein, almond milk and flax seed smoothie will be pretty hard to beat!

Does anyone have a favorite Green Smoothie they make? Do share!
