Blended


Do you ever have one of those mornings where you realize you don't have a blender?

This morning I woke up, grabbed all the ingredients to make a yummy (and healthy) breakfast fruit smoothie. That's when it hit me. "Caity, you don't have a blender."

How is it that Bob and I have been married for almost three years and I am just now realizing this? Isn't a blender a kitchen staple? I explored every single cabinet in my elf kitchen and not one blender popped up. But if you're looking for crock pots I have more than enough to go around.. hmm perhaps I could make a crock pot smoothie?

That's funny. The exact same thing has happened to me and Ry, except with a TOASTER and a muffin tin. I mean HELLO, who doesn't have a toaster? Oh wait, that would be me..

We got 6 waffle makers for our wedding and like 10 cutting boards, but no toaster...

Hey Cait...just get one of those small food processors. It's a blender/chopper all in one. I bought one the day after Thanksgiving for like 5 bucks. I know they aren't very expensive!

I would die without my blender. I bet a food processor would work though. I never thought of that!

We have the cusinart blender and I think it sucks. Go with Kim's advice when you get one.
And while your down here picking up your new blender you can stop by our house and make us some smoothies. I'll take strawberry banana please!

That was one happy day when we realized, duh...lets go buy a microwave.

You can have my magic bullet but be warned it is crap! Other then that I too am minus a blender. Perhaps we should go blender shopping.

I had a fruit smoothie last night and it was delightful! Seriously it was filling, low in calories and delish!
