The Vitamix Era


Things have changed around the house these days. It's not about when the next meal is, or what the next meal is... it's what kind of concoction we can make in the latest addition to our household... The Vitamix!

I don't know how we ever lived without the jet-engined sized motor that obliterates any food it encounters. It's loud. It's powerful (I worry each time I use it that the lights in the neighborhood are dimming...). But it is pretty cool, even I have to admit. Better than a blender for sure, which just seemed to carbonate our smoothies and half-chop any ice we put in it.

Every breakfast for the last few weeks has been pure fruit, yogurt and juice smoothies. We've made several different soups. The cappucino and iced coffees turned out great. We've even mastered Blizzards (my personal fav!) and our own V8 juice. I'm thinking for Thanksgiving dinner we can skip the all-day cooking thing and just have a cran-turkey shake with stuffing soup on the side!
