These THINGS are so Addictive

I've been becoming more friendly with Raw Smoothies, for health reasons, and because they are so darn good!  I never thought I could make my own smoothies taste the way they do.  I experiment so very much.  This is one of the smoothies I made this week.  So good that now DH is asking what's in it! go figure huh?

I was suppose to use Romaine Lettuce with this one, but I used Kale(which is like Turnip, Mustard, or Collard Greens).  Mixed in bananas, ginger root(I wasn't used to cooking with ginger, so I threw the skin of the ginger(1/4") into the blender), apple, and pears.  This was the yummiest!  I'm so addicted.  Yesterday, I made a watermelon, bluberry, kiwi, kale smoothie.  I can go on and on, but here are a few snaps of the the ginger root smoothie!

The Chihuahua and the Owl

So, my DH called me this morning as I was on my way in to work, and said he just saw something really funny on the news.


A dog fell from the sky, and hit the top of someone's hood. I know, that part wasn't the funniest. He then goes on to say that an owl was trying to chase it away, but picked it up. I asked, why would an owl pick a dog(a little Chihuahua). Well, due to the fact that there is a lot of snow around, the Owl's can not see the ground, so they are targeting small animals. So, after the dog fell from the sky, it was on the news with its owner. The torture this dog must go through. They brought an owl in the same room with the dog, and the dog was still so shaken. He's a very quick learner. LOL Poor puppy! Watch after your small animals in the snow!
