I tell ya, using the homegrown strawberries that are extra extra red, compared to those I've gotten in grocery stores (you know, white and sometimes hollow on the inside, but picture perfect on the outside?), really has an influence on the overall color of the smoothie! I normally just use banana and not strawberries in it, but when I have added strawberries, the smoothies have NEVER been this vibrant!

Working breakfast
Working from home today, and needed some breakfast. Here's a great way to use up a banana that's starting to get a bit ripe, all those spare strawberries I mentioned yesterday that aren't getting eaten fast enough (I'm eating them! I'm eating them!), plus get in a yogurt (blech) which is good for my digestive tract, some protein powder (good for the muscles) (well, at least if I'm working out), milk (good for the bones, or so they say), and some water/ice (hey, we're supposed to drink more water, right?). Mmmm - tasty!

That smoothie looks mighty fine, Jeph...and is that pink paint I see in the background or is it the reflection of the smoothie that's giving the paint a pink tint?
Wow - I hadn't noticed that - good eye! That is definitely NOT pink paint - lol!! It's white paint, but both the smoothie and the red curtain are probably reflecting the morning sunlight onto the trim.
Sorry, no pink paint here! LOL
