The requested smoothie recipe
The original recipe for this smoothie calls it the Blue Sunset -- we eat it in the mornings, have changed it up a bit, and are now calling it the Blue Sunrise smoothie!
~~Laura
2 Cups Frozen Mango (or one 12 oz bag)
2 Cups Frozen Pineapple (or one 12 oz bag)
2 Frozen Bananas
2 Cups Best Ever Nut Mylk (recipe below)
3 Tablespoons Agave Nectar or 12 Drops Liquid Stevia
2 Teaspoons Vanilla Extract
1 Cup Blueberries
In a blender, puree all ingredients except blueberries until smooth. Pour out about half of the mixture into serving glasses, filling each glass half way. Add the blueberries to the remaining shake in the blender and blend until smooth. Gently pour the remaining blueberry shake over the pineapple-mango shake. Enjoy! Serves 2
1 C. Almonds or Brazil nuts or Walnuts or Pecans or hemp seeds
4 C. Purified water
1/3 C. Agave Nectar or 1 1/2 droppers full of Liquid Stevia
1 Tablespoon Vanilla
3 Tablespoons Coconut oil
Blend all ingredients in a high-speed blender for about 45 seconds. Pour through a milk-bag, cheesecloth, or a very fine sieve. Yield: 4 Cups

Part 9 Of Precious Things
Who shall paint the flash of splendour from the opened casket bright,
When His precious lovingkindness beams upon the quickened sight!
Priceless jewel ever gleaming with imperishable ray,
God will never take it from us, though the mountains pass away.

The Best Smoothie In The World #2!
What is my new favorite smoothie? The Blue Sunrise from one of our cookbooks! The bottom layer has bananas, mango, pineapple, brazil nut-milk, vanilla, and liquid stevia. The top layer is the mango mixture with blueberries and bee pollen added. This was the creamiest smoothie I have ever had!~~Laura
What Have I Been Doing?
Last August I decided to take 2 online dual credit college courses -- Music Appreciation and Spanish 1. Spanish was awesome, but I really enjoyed the music course because there was A LOT of writing to do and I was also required to attend 3 recitals. Here are some pictures of 1 of the recitals. Everyone was in period costume and played beautifully!
