The Perfect Way To Start A Friday

February 6, 2009

Happy Friday! :D

Well guys, I must say I am starting and finishing my day in (hopefully) the say way today.

You see, my smoothie concoction turned out to be a beautiful wine-like hue. After I saw Kath’s Superfoodtini yesterday, I knew what had to be done.

And so I present to you….

The Perfect Way to Start a Friday

Of course this merlot monster would not fit in a red wine glass, so this Montrachet will have to do. Sadly, I don’t think I will be having this much red wine tonight after my last day at work!

Merlot Monster

The Superfood Stash:

  • 1 cup frozen strawberries
  • 1 cup frozen organic blueberries
  • 1 Tbsp flax
  • few sprigs of Parsley
  • 1 heaping handful organic baby spinach
  • 2 small kale leaves
  • 1 1/2 cup Almond Breeze in original

Can you believe how long these flowers have lasted!? Amazing!

Can you see the peace sign in the glass? ;)

The Taste test?

Well, at first sip I knew right away that I added too many blueberries. Next time I will cut the blueberries in half as their taste was just overpowering the strawberries in this mixture. I also didn’t have my trusty ripe banana and I missed the flavour. It was still yummy though and I felt quite michevious as I drank it this morning.

Well, here is to my last day of work! :D I am quite nervous this morning but I am sure it will go well. We are having an afternoon tea at 3pm today for my send off…

Good luck on your last day! I’m sure these two weeks have dragged on forever, but as a reader I feel that it was just yesterday I read you had put in your 2 weeks!

I’m really looking forward to the guest post on blogs by the way i just started my own, and it is seriously needing some work!

Have a great day!
