How to Get More Fiber in Your Diet
Good morning all! In the interest of promoting good health here is what I had for breakfast. Bon Appetit!
Papaya-Strawberry Smoothies
3 or 4 cups frozen Papaya chunks (6 months in the freezer is minimally accepted time, ignore the freezer burn)
1 can of strawberry nectar
1 wooden spoon
-Add the papaya chunks and 1/3 of the nectar to a blender. Hit puree.
-Insert wooden spoon through opening in blender lid and push ingredients to blade.
-Notice this is not helping.
-Add more nectar and repeat 2 previous steps.
-Become impatient. Stop blender and really smash fruit chunks into blades. Hit puree.
-Continue smashing fruit into blades with wooden spoon (be sure to hit the blades several times) until desired consistency is acheived.
-Turn off blender and pull out spoon. Notice large chunks of spoon missing.
-Consider dumping it all down the drain. Remember there are children starving in Africa.
-Strain the smoothie through a sieve to remove larger splinters of spoon.
-Pour smoothie into a glass and enjoy.
-Notice there are still several visually detectable specks of wood.
-Tell yourself this too shall pass.

If I might field that question frome barefoot...
The tagboard is the cause of the pop-ups. They get blocked on mine however, but the tagboard we use causes pop-ups people tell me.
