Smoothie Sale

All flavors of our diverse smoothies just $5.00 per box. That breaks the price down to just .71 cents per smoothie. I asked you last week to think outside of the box with some of our products. Now, below, I have several smoothie recipes listed. Pair them up with special times of year. Gingerbread & Peppermint Patty smoothies are great during the holiday season. Pumpkin is awesome all through fall months. Somewhere, I have a cinnamon apple smoothie recipe that tastes like apple pie (yum).

Anyway, my kids got a huge kick out of the pumpkin smoothie last year. I served it two different ways. Once, as a smoothie with a black licorice stick poking out of it. The "stick" was a bit hollow, so they used it like a straw as best they could. Another time, I froze the pumpkin smoothie in popsicle forms with a black spider ring hidden in the center! They got a BIG kick out of that. Obviously, you wouldn't want to serve that around kids that are really young out of fear they would choke on the ring. My kids are older & really enjoy such trivial nonsense. Again, this is simply a reminder to think outside of the box, stretch your dollar as much as possible, and be creative with your lifestyle choices!
