Tall, Dark, and.....Nasty!

Morning all! Hope the day is going well for everyone. Things are better. Well, now that I've had some soup and edamame for breakfast they're better! This of course was after a failed attempt at a smoothie. Oh what a horrible tasting smoothie...

Yesterday, my friend and I were talking about smoothies and she told me about a smoothie her husband had made the night before using yogurt, fruit, etc., so I thought I would try to replicate the yumminess. I pulled out my Ninja (the coolest blender/food processor ever!) and threw in some banana, orange, soy yogurt, flax seed, and a few ice cubes and blended away. Then I thought I needed to add some green so I added a bunch of spinach and a splash of agave nectar. Again, I blended away...once it was ready I poured it into a clear glass, ready to drink. Bottoms up!



Well, I took a big swig...and then promptly spit it out. Yuck! Ick! That was by far the nastiest smoothie I have had in quite a long time, and I usually like the smoothies I make. Not this one. Down the drain went my breakfast. Crap...what to have??

At this point I was super hungry and didn't want to take a lot of time to make something else so I decided to plunder through my refrigerator to see if I had any breakfast-quality left overs. Fortunately I found some potato leek soup and sourdough bread (I toasted that up and it made an nice accompaniment to the soup).  Then I brewed a nice cup of coffee and drank that up nice and fast! MMMmmmmmm......


After this, I was still hungry...so I decided to do up some edamame and that finished off breakfast on quite a yummy note...





Remember the yummy lunch I talked about yesterday? Well I have the pictures to show just how good it was...don't be too jealous! :-)

Happy MoFo!
