Re: Day 5: Banana Smoothies And Continued Thwarting By Coconuts

So...your banana smoothie sounded so yummy I decided to make myself one. I got bananas and ice. Unfortunately, my blender is not the greatest blender in the world. I turned it on and all it did was spin the ice around a lot. So I took off the lid and tried to poke everything down with a fork. After a few ice cubes flung themselves to freedom, I managed to get everything under control and something that resembled a smoothie happened.

I had read somewhere that people add their coconut oil to the smoothie as a way of ingesting it (I tried eating a tablespoon of it last night straight and almost vomited up my raw dinner), so I thought I would do the same.

LOL it never occurred to me that when the liquid coconut oil goes into ice, it solidifies. I poured out the smoothie from the blender and all the coconut oil was plastered like a rock to the side of the blender. Hmmm.

So I slowly poured more into the smoothie and stirred. This now caused me to taste waxy chunks and bits while drinking the whole smoothie.

It's a good thing I can laugh at myself....
