I’m on a smoothie kick ever since getting an awesome new blender–
Today’s smoothie:
- 1 yellow peach, with skin
- 1/2 of a small honeydew

- 1/2″ vanilla bean, split down the center
- a squirt of honey
- a few splashes of orange juice
Yum!

This post has it all–hot alcoholic beverages, wonderful presents, cupcakes, and yarn, what more could you want? =)
