POTD 21/365 Tropical Acai Smoothies














MJ has a minimum day every Wednesday. Today, after he ran home from school, while he was reading his new book
















and I was cleaning the kitchen we decided to go get smoothies. We haven't done that in a long time. Maybe a good 6 months. And, since it was just the two of us because MD took my little Wubie to Disneyland for the day and K was still working we figured, why not? They're not really on the budget, but I had a couple of full frequent buyer cards so they ended up being free.

We have been buying these Tropical Acai Smoothies for at least 5 years from a place called Fresh Squeeze near us. They are made with













Sambazon Acai puree. We've tried Acai smoothies form other places like Jamba Juice and such, but they are know where near as tastey as the Fresh Squeeze smoothies.

If you haven't tried acai it's really delicious and you can read all about it at http://www.sambazon.com

I don't beleive it helps people lose weight, like other companies say. I do however beleive it is a healthy treat, high in antioxidents.

Now, off to walk 5 more miles to burn off that yumminess.

That looks really good!! I've liked the acai I've tried. Haven't had a fruit smoothie like that in forever. Maybe when it warms up.
