green smoothies

OK. Maybe this is just me. 

I hope it's not just me.

But here's the deal.

Do you ever have those times where you've been doing something for-ev-er, and then it gets really cool? And you're like: wait. I've known about that for a bajillion years. And then you try to say that, but you end up looking like a know it all.

This is how I feel about green smoothies. They're everywhere nowadays and I feel like they're old school to me.

And I was getting all up-in-ma-head about this and then it hit me that I actually stole them from Courtney. And if I've been green smoothing for a bajillion years, she has been doing it for two bajillion years.

And this was a reality check for me: yes. I have been drinking them since before they were cool. And Courtney was rocking them even before that. And guess what? Neither of us invented them. Nor did we discover them. So I should just chill out (with a smoothie in hand) and let the world enjoy the goodness that they offer. Especially because they're the sneakiest way ever to get more spinach in your diet. Which is great for everyone, especially - you know - spinach farmers.

And in the spirit of true smoothie loving, I thought I'd offer up my favorite new recipe:

1 apple

Spinach (duh)

Peanut Butter

Cinnamon

Flax

Almond Milk

Blend over ice.

OK. That's all for today. :)
