“What a fun way to eat fruit!”
For pretty much the first time ever (even after dating for over 8 months), Jeff and I stayed in and cooked instead of going out to eat. He made a great salad, while I contributed some lukewarm Ragu & tortellini and buttery toasted English muffins. We also sat at my dining room table for its first ever meal-use since I bought it back in January.
Afterwords, we tested out the blender I bought this afternoon. Even though we discovered that wedges of oranges are not the best ingredient (too much pulpy skin), we giddily envisioned a summer full of fruit smoothies (hence Jeff’s exclamation that provided the title of this post).
Update: Faced with a refrigerator filled with leftover vegetables, Jeff and I decided to make omelets for brunch. Notice the amazingly similar color palettes of the two meals…
try using a little OJ instead of oranges. My favorite shake is watermelon, strawberries and OJ. Not the most interesting combo, but it works out fairly nicely.
