Me- Hold up....!WHAT are we looking at here?! Is that SPINACH in the blender? Wait..... a minute, if you think I'm going to have anything to do with that, I'm telling you NO, right now!, Uh uh... No, not having that...uh uh.
Me- Is that going to make it BETTER!
Logical Me- Ok, I know..., we'll add fresh blueberries from the garden?
Me- Are you KIDDING?!
Logical Me- We KNOW you like ice cold milk...you'll drink that right?
SASSY Me- Oh... okay, I'm suppose to feel better about this because you put a few ice cubes in there, after all... that IS what you put in a smoothie...
This was the conversation that was going on in my head as I watched my amazing sister in law bring together what was the most memorable meal of my life. Spinach smoothies and popcorn! I think the thing that blew me away was how all of her children, a lot under 5, drank it right up no questions asked. Then my brother in law popped pop corn in a pot the old fashion way with a little oil and served it up in a big bowl.
Since then we have incorporated spinach smoothies into our families mid day pick me up. And we hardly ever make microwave popcorn.
I feel like the never mentioned friend to 'Sam I Am' who is always trying to get Sam to eat green eggs and ham. What language can I possibly use to convince you how good this is. Sí, sí, muy bueno! Oui, oui, très bonne! Sì, sì, molto buono! Ja, ja veldig bra! Да, да, очень хорошо! はい、はい非常に良い！There! See that, I'd knew you'd undersand.
So many good things in life are like spinach smoothies...

I think I could try it if I knew there was a fruit in it too! :) Remember those cookies you brought us to the airport on our way to High Point? Is there any chance I could convince you to share that recipe?
