And guess what, I'll be speaking with Brenda today to order my Vitamix! Yay! My current blender is super old, and has held up surprisingly well considering its age...but when you make green smoothie in it, you kind of have to suck them down really quick to get past the texture. =) I'm pumped about the Vitamix!

I think we decided that would be the first thing we buy when we are out of debt. Until then, we are blessed that our current blender is taking what we throw at it and hasn't burned out. I wanted to let you know that Chris suggested that we do a week long smoothie/juice fast to boost us into healthier eating. We already eat healthy, but we know it could be even better. So, we are definitely doing LOTS of green smoothies! And afterwards, we may stay pretty on a mostly raw menu. So pray for us that it will be a healthy, blessed experience!

It gets used almost daily. I especially enjoy being able to grind my own grain. Recently caught a demo for the Vita-Mix competitor...what do you think about those? Absolutely LOVE ours.

I have sent an e-mail to VitaMix about it. I have a question about green smoothie prep. I think I heard you can wash, dry and freeze greens in bulk for smoothie use. Is that so? I more-often-than-I-like end up wasting some of my green due to spoilage. Are there any greens that should not be frozen? Thanks for posting this. I have sent an e-mail to VitaMix about it.
