Anna loves smoothies and asks for them multiple times per day. We all shared one at the mall a few weeks ago and then Craig started making them at home once I found a good stock of frozen fruit to use. This particular smoothie, or "poozie" as Anna would say, is a little thick as it was the first one I have made (a little too much mango juice, not enough milk, I guess).
The other mispronunciation that I find endearing is "pocus." When we're walking up or down the stairs we often have to remind her to focus or concentrate.
Here is Nana's recipe for smoothees.
1 Banana
Frozen fruit (about 1 cup)
skim milk (about 1 cup)
Sweetener or sugar to taste
1 tsp. vanilla
ice
Blend it all up and enjoy!
OOOPS! I meant Poozies, of course.
We are going to have some with banana this week while Craig is gone (since he is allergic).
We've been using:
frozen fruit
mango juice (really thick, more like nectar)
whole milk
no extra sugar and I can't justify using my vanilla beans here. You'll have to bring out a big bottle of vanilla when you come this spring!
