Yummy Smoothie

Last Thursday I stayed over in NYC visiting my friend Vivan, who is in town for the summer visiting her parents. On Friday morning Viv made a fruit smoothie for us, made from random fruits and berries they happened to have around the kitchen, and some soy milk.

Anyway that inspired me this afternoon to play with the food processor sent to Kenji and me by Mom M for our anniversary this year. Here's what went into today's (will be the first of many) smoothie:

• 1 pear
• 1 nectarine
• couple handsful of blueberries
• about an inch of ginger root, peeled, chopped and smashed with a mortar and pestle
• 6oz vanilla yogurt

It came out super-yummy! I especially liked the ginger. Yumm yummmm yummmm!
