i made a fruit smoothie!!

it is: awesome.

first i put in some frozen mixed berries that i found in the freezer.

then i put in a banana. (i don't usually like bananas but they are good for you and they are okay when they are in a smoothie.)

then i mixed them up, i worked out how to use the blender and everything!

then i put in some apple juice and two golden kiwifruit. finally, i squeezed in half a lemon.

the result?

perfection, in a cup. i even found a green straw to drink it with!
(everything tastes better with a straw.)


other good things about today:
- yay! the weather is beautiful today! and all the birds are out! i like birds.
- i was just in town and all the kids from the montessori schools were doing a walk for water in niger and they were so cute and i got to wave to them.
- i got to see huggies. she is totally cool. and she bought me chocolate!
- also my chickens are cute. i just let them out for the afternoon and now they are having lots of fun stomping around the garden and mucking about in the dirt.
- tonight i get to go to girl group and then maybe to the rongotai college production! w00t!!! God is good!!


song of the day:

broken, by jack johnson (verse 1)

with everything ahead of us we left everything behind,
(but nothing that we needed - at least, not at this time)
and now the feeling that i'm feeling - well,
it's feeling like my life is finally mine.
with nothing to go back to, we just continue to drive.
without you i was broken, but i'd rather be broke down with you by my side.

Yes the montessori kids are soooooo kids, and super intelligent! Honestly people hang out with them more! How many year 6-8 classes have you been into where they are studying classics and have a model of a double helix hanging from the ceiling?

Awesome kids

I digress,

You make me hungry....... need to go find food.... must hunt and gather :)

Mmm, the smoothie sounds nice. How can you not normally like bananas? Some other things to consider adding are canned peaches (or other fruit) and yoghurt.

You didn't mention seeing me on the bus, surely that was also a highlight. :-)

oh, yes, it definitely was. but that happened on thursday, and all the other stuff happened on friday. if you were on the bus on friday, i definitely would have put you in there.
