I bet your hubby would love a peach smoothie (with frozen or fresh peaches), the color is lovely. I add ground up flax seed (golden) and ground chia seeds to the mix, both highly nutritious. What is a smoothie blender? I use a regular blender. For juicing I have a Breville.
He has no problem eating raw vegetables, but he refuses to drink them. I'll try pure fruit smoothie on him one of these days.
I don't really know what a smoothie blender is, but that's what it says on the box. I don't have a juicer, and the only thing I have that's similar to a blender is a Cuisinart food processor that I use only to make pesto in bulk -- everything else that needs to be chopped, shredded, grated, or sliced, I do them all by hand. The food processor doesn't liquify, that's why I bought this little machine from Walmart. It's single serving, the cup is portable (supposed to fit most car cup holders) and only costs me $15, but it received 4.5 stars out of 500+ reviews. I figured $15 wasn't too bad of an investment for something I use everyday.
I had an appointment yesterday with an orthopaedic specialist about my left shoulder - possible torn rotator cuff as well as adhesive capsulitis. My appointment was at 10:30 and they asked that I arrive 15 minutes early to fill out paperwork.
Since the office was more than an hour's drive from home I left plenty early and arrived at 10:00. They gave me a medical history form to complete and I had not even finished it before I was called in to the exam room at about 10:12. The doctor came in within 2 minutes and did not rush the exam, explained what was likely wrong with my shoulder and why an MRI was the next step.
They had scheduled it for a rather early time and I explained that I had a long distance to come and could I have a later time. They cheerfully rescheduled it for later in the day and happily provided me with the procedure code so that I could check with my insurance company to find out in advance what my share of the cost would be.
People around here are about ready to mutiny. I don't remember a year like this. This should fizzle before it gets to you.
I lived in MN for 43 long years, and if memory serve me right, one very unusual freaky year up there, I saw snow flurries on Memorial Day!
In the 20 years I've been away from there, I have religiously looked at the Minneapolis temps every day of the year since I left there. I believe your amnesia results from your having had a string of unusually warm winters the past 5-10 years, where you thought Global Warming had finally arrived!
I remember one winter, following the temperatures, there were many days it was colder here in winter in Las Vegas than Minneapolis, and my back-home relatives never let me live it down!
Maybe, just maybe, MN is going back to "normal" again!

It can go back to normal AFTER I leave here - not before. I do remember one June where it was cold - not snowing cold, but cold. The snow is almost gone - it was really beautiful though - that wet stuff that covered all the trees and bushes . It really looked like a winter wonderland.
Now - on to the 60s and next week~~~~the 70s I finally believe it's over.
