Summer Smoothie

What’s cool, fun, beautiful to look at, satisfying, refreshing, easy to eat, pleasing to young and old alike, simple to make, nutritious and delicious?

A smoothie of course! They have definitely established themselves in our normal everyday diet. No longer unusual as they originally were.

Recently a group of friends wanted to do a little something more than just give a gift to someone on their 60th birthday. This “someone”, having many friends and well wishes had already received a number of invitations to lunch, dinner, tea and coffee hours.  What would be an appropriate way to enhance the giving of their gift?  Aha!  A “smoothie break”.  Just right. Perfect in every way.

They knew their birthday girl loved fresh fruit so they arranged a beautiful basketful as a center piece. Then they blended up a tray full of assorted smoothies. For hers, they combined strawberries, bananas, mangoes and peaches, all her favorites.  It was a tremendous success!  She loved everything about it and made it very clear that it pleased her as much, if not more, than some of her more elaborate expressions of care.  What a rewarding experience for all.
