I woke up to a depressing sight this morning, it was horrible…I had left my homemade orange chicken out on the counter last night.
Ughhhhhh I dreamed about the yummy leftovers that orange chicken and sticky rice would have gave me. Yum! But no, FAIL on my end for getting side tracked by cuddling on the couch and playing Video Games with my husband to even run to the kitchen and put up that sticky, amazing, heaven filled chicken in a tub o ware container where it would sit in our fridge tell this very second when I could have ate it for lunch! The worst part about it was I was going to share it with you!
Well the truth is that I was being lazy last night and did not take pictures. I had planned on using those yummy leftovers to make a beautiful plate of delicious orange chicken and taking lovely pictures to show you. But, since all I have to show for last nights yummy meal is now icky not as pretty mess I guess we will have to console ourselves!
This is where I decided to make a quick smoothie before baking something new to share with you today. But, that quick smoothie turned into an hour long proses of me spilling milk, almost breaking our blender by somehow managing to put the bottom part on all wonky and wedged all sorts of wrong… therefor taking me 30 minutes to get it out and put it on correctly, and then cutting myself with a butter knife of all things! Well when I finally had my delirious smoothie in my hand I decided the last thing I needed to do today was touch the oven….so here you go, SMOOTHIES!
I like to buy a few box’s of strawberry’s while on sale so i can slice them up and wrap them up tight and pop them in the freezer. This makes it so I always have strawberry for quick fix smoothies! Plus the frozen strawberry’s makes your smoothie cold and delirious. I then just grab any other fruits I have on hand that sound good….today bananas… and add those with the strawberry’s, top off with some milk and honey (or sugar if you would rather..I just like the healthy sweetness the honey adds). Sometimes I’ll even add a spoonful if Nesquick or a few mint leaves from my garden! YUM!! I never really measure for smoothies, I just throw stuff until it looks good!
