My other favorite B-Day Gift

So my sweet friends Jamie and Jen both have these amazing inventions called magic bullets. Okay, yes these are those as seen on TV little cup sized blenders...but they are fabulous. Well being the jealous kind I am, I decided that I needed one too. And G-d must have thought the same because it went on sale at costco and was only a whopping $39.99. And for $39.99 you got an entire set of party glasses, two different blades, two mixing containers, a party sized pitcher, and a traveling case! I mean can you say good deal or what. So I tell Ben I want this and he says "no way," so I say, "but my birthday is coming up, how about you let me get that for my birthday." Finally after some groveling and begging, he said "fine, get it!" So I hurried out to costco to purchase my very own magic bullet. And let's just say I haven't been disappointed. It makes the best smoothies. A little frozen fruit, some yogurt, a splash of milk, coupled with some flax seed to make it seem more healthy and wala...a delicious meal or snack. 

Up to this point I have just had your traditional frozen fruit mixture, but then Jen told me about her favorite kind of smoothie...white chocolate peanut butter. So I purchase all the necessary ingredients at the grocery store today. I put half a frozen banana, a scoop of peanut butter, 1/4 box sugar free/fat free white chocolate pudding, milk, and vanilla yogurt into the magic bullet and out came the most delicious drink I have ever tasted!! All I have to say is this made for TV invention is well worth the investment. Thanks Ben for my great birthday present. (I do have to say this wasn't the only thing Ben gave me...even more special than the bullet was the journal that he has been writing to me since my last birthday. So so sweet, made me cry....love that man). 

Come on over and I will whip you up a delcious smoothie or shake in 10 seconds or less :)
