Got Spinach?
Sorry, couldn’t resist using the most over-used catch phrase ever!
Just another quick spinach smoothie post!
This one turned out a gorgeous deep reddish plum color, and tasted awesome.
It contained:
8 oz. Frozen Mixed Berries
Ice
A Banana
1 c. Water
1 c. Grape Juice
Loads of Spinach
There was a little bit left over, so we made Spinach Popsicles, which the kids were thrilled about and enjoyed immensely.
Warning! They make a mess! Everyone had to change clothes afterwards.

Tea Party
Yesterday, a very nice tea party took place in our backyard.
There were a few highly distinguished guests.
And one party crasher, who was politely invited to stay.
The tea started quite simply,
But soon grew into a rather elaborate affair.
There was an elegant centerpiece,
Fine china place settings,
And expensive hors d'oeuvres.
The guests were on their best behavior--
Except for one, who still needs to learn a few manners.
A lovely time was had by all.

Porch Project -Sneak Peak-
Getting a lot done on our back porch. Still have plenty to do, but here's a little peak at what I've been up to.
I’m hoping to get it power-washed and painted before July!
Early Summer Monster Smoothie
We had a Blueberry-Raspberry Monster Smoothie on Saturday, and it came out such a deep pretty purple color, I had to post a few pics.
We used fresh blueberries left over from Memorial Day's trifle, and frozen raspberries. It was gooood.
