Working cHard in the garden

I knew it was time to get the tomato seedlings into the ground, which meant that the spinach, chard, and lettuce needed to come out. Every year the garden gets a little better, and this spring's crop was better than last spring. I shared much of the chard and lettuce, but saved the spinach all for myself!









- My favorite green smoothie is:
* A handful of watermelon cubes
* 1/2 ripe banana
* 1/2 cup water
* As much spinach as fits in the blender
* A handful of ice

I can drink one of those with every meal! Yum!

-The kids favorite green smoothie is:
* 1 cup milk
* A large squirt of Hershey's syrup
* About 2 cups fresh spinach
* 2-3 Tbs. peanut butter (wipe your knife on a spinach leaf)
* A handful of ice

The kids have a tall glass for breakfast. "If you think the green color is weird, then close your eyes."
