Slurp-able Smoothies




The last few weeks Penny's appetite has certainly changed.  She has become much more picky with what she eats. basically no fruit unless it's dried and in that case most anything is delicious to her. Veggies are spared. she will pick at corn and peas as well as broccoli, green beans and sometimes carrots. I decided to teach her to drink from a straw and then we were on to smoothies once a day. 


Teaching her to drink through the straw took only a minute, I held liquid in it and let her slurp it out. she adores the smoothies I make her. I get "Mmmm" and  some clapping for when it's especially good. 
Our main ingredients are strawberries, bananas and spinach, then we add things here and there for different tastes. I will add apples, celery, carrots and blueberries sometimes. I am interested in getting some chia seeds and maybe some flax seeds for the extra nutrition. 



I say we need some new tumblers for Mama and P to take our smoothies on the road. and to prevent less spills around the house.
