I shall never spend another penny on store-bought milk-like things

Oooh! I really dislike talking about products. But I am so happy with this experiment that I must do justice to my Blentec total blender. Yes, I also think it’s cheesy to talk about brands as if they were one’s close friends (the world is full of mac-lovers already). But let me get to the experiment and you shall understand my excitement.

The Blentec came with a recipe book, which went straight into a drawer. I have never laid eyes upon the book, imagining that it would be filled with cookie-cutter recipes that include ingredients like frozen fruit concentrate and canned pineapple (and in fact, that’s the case!). But when faced with a bad cold which made me house-bound for three days, I decided to put off the yogurt because I had read lactose is not a good friend of those filled with mucus. Instead of yogurt with fruit and nuts in the morning, I needed some milk-like thing.
