Lilikois and Smoothies


I love Summer. It's not like anything is any different here in Hawaii... it's maybe 5 degrees warmer. The sun sets at 7:00pm instead of 6:00pm. There are a ton of tourists on the island making traffic terrible... but for some reason I love summer. My work schedule is totally different and I love it. The best thing about summer is the lilikoi's are ripe! (I think they're a.k.a passion fruit). Ivy calls them "Lilitois." Hahahaha. So cute.

I started making smoothies with Ivy. 
The idea that all those nutrients are mixed into one yummy drink is awesome. 
Here's what we use:

-some kind of veggie/fruit juice
-frozen berries
-frozen chopped spinach
-vanilla yogurt
-milk
-any other fruit we have laying around (like lilikois)
-ice


Ivy loves to help make them too!


And she loves holding the lid on... Don't worry, I help her. This photo is staged for effect.




She likes it, I promise... :)

PS: Cailin gave her that dress. It's from a garage sale. 
I love how Cailin knows what we need/like at garage sales. 

Yay for Lilitois! And Smoothies!



Aloha, 
Becca
