I like to cook. Scratch that, let me elaborate. I like to take a recipe, mold it to what's in my pantry, and then throw in a little a' this and a little o' that.
The tragedy in our house is that, when requested to repeat a meal that happened to go over well, I usually am unable to perform the same kitchen voodoo twice. This may have something to do with the fact that I don't write down my mixed up take on the base recipe. This is becoming increasingly frustrating for my husband, as I use our Vitamix every morning for our smoothie-rific breakfast, and often during week for various dressings, muffins, soups, etc... And sometimes he just wants that one green drink iteration I made last week, darn it!
*A note on the Vitamix... If you wonder why anyone would pay that much for a blender, ours was a gift - best ever, give this blending / pulverizing / serious horsepower / friction heating / greenfood disintegrating device a whirl. Your old blender will be in the donation box before your first slurp!
So back to the introductory post, my husband suggested that I write my recipes down. Like most internet-lovin', technology-usin' folks today, I prefer to type. So "Mixed Up and Smoothed Out" is born this morning, as I sit at my kitchen table sipping my breakfast smoothie. Enjoy the fruits - and veggies - of my toils... -A
