Be sure to use low-bush blueberries for the best taste. ;-)
The larger high-bush berries are a bit bland in comparison.

Judging by the state of that desk (you could've cleaned it), I'd say a man of little wealth and questionable taste. Oh, and is that wall to wall carpet?

Are those banquet tables?

Now now, we don't make judgements of people's homes when they offer us a glimpse inside. Besides- he may have popped-into the servants quarters to receive his smoothie. Anyone who reads Tabs' posts would have observed that the picture is probably just as much about the book lying just behind the smoothie than the smoothie itself.

Tabs- why add the sugar? Should be plenty in the berries.

My recipe is similar, though I add strawberry protein powder and a banana. No extra sweetener for me- trying to maintain my boyish figure and I've never missed it.

Obsessive compulsive at it's finest.

I, on the other hand, would like to clean off that stain.

So is it really ok to call them "Oriental" carpets anymore?

I've been told (by the PC police) that "Oriental" is NOT ok. . . "Asian" is now preferred. --As in DWO is now DWA....

I just wouldn't want to offend or confuse anyone.

[island911]

Oh, and if an Oriental girl . . oops Asian girl has carpets that don't match the drapes, is she more likely an Asian American, or an American? . . . or just Japanese?

So what sells more these days ... Blueberry smoothies, or pop?

An unrelated article:

WEDNESDAY, Aug. 8 (HealthDay News) -- Diet foods and drinks meant to help children control their weight may actually spur overeating and obesity, Canadian researchers say.

The study found that animals learn to associate the taste of food with the amount of caloric energy it provides. The researchers speculate that children who eat low-calorie versions of foods that normally have a high calorie content may develop distorted connections between taste and calorie content, resulting in overeating as the children grow up.


"The use of diet food and drinks from an early age into adulthood may induce overeating and gradual weight gain through the taste conditioning process that we have described," lead author and sociologist Dr. David Pierce, of the University of Alberta, said in a prepared statement.


In a series of experiments published Aug. 8 in the journal Obesity, the researchers found that young rats started to overeat when they received low-calorie food and drink. Adolescent rats did not overeat when given low-calorie items.


This may be because, unlike the younger rats, the adolescent rats didn't rely on taste-related cues to assess the caloric energy content of their food, the researchers said.


"Based on what we've learned, it is better for children to eat healthy, well-balanced diets with sufficient calories for their daily activities rather than low-calorie snacks or meals," Pierce said.

Try honey as the sweetener instead of sugar or artificial sweetener.

So everybody on this Board isn't a total loss after all. Those are Caffe Latte (Made by my Salvatore esspresso machine) stains on the desk that are etched into the Buffet Tables that sit on the wall to wall carpet that came with the house.
