The 'smoothies' Diet

~~~ The 'Smoothies' Diet ~~~ I've discovered the joys of 'smoothies' as a diet and if you're counting calories, you just might want to try it. Start with milk and ice and water and whatever you may bring. With mine, I add a little something ... just to give it zing. To my strawberry smoothies a little Baja Rosa I add. That extra touch of flavour is guaranteed to make you glad. To a pineapple smoothie I find it needs a little something with kick so a couple of ounces of tequila seems to do the trick. Mocha latte smoothies are just instant coffee, milk and ice. So add a little vanilla and some Baileys to make it nice. Yes, this smoothies diet is great and its healthy to boot and even if I don't lose any weight, ... I really don't give a hoot.

LOL, I wouldn't give a hoot if I put on weight with this diet, Francine. I'm virtually drooling at the thought of the Baileys recipe. Very tasty write : )

LOL Sounds like there may be quite a few calories in the smoothies, Francine, but I like them too. Had to laugh at your last line! Love, Carolyn

What more could I ask for today? It is a beautiful day the sun shining and birds singing. I am reading your poetry in which you share a little of yourself maybe without even realizing it you have written from your soul. Thank you for sharing your awesome poetry with us Francine. Love, Carol
