Another Blog-mercial coming at ya!!

On the heels of my birthday...I had some cash to spend.

I've never been happy with my blender...at least that's what Hamilton Beach calls it!

I put ice cream in it to make a smoothie..and it says "no thank you!!!!"

I mean come on...your a blender...aren't you?

Problem solved!

If this looks good to you....read on!!!

I did it!

I got the Ninja!

Let's just say...impressive!

Troy and I wasted no time..testing this baby out.

Right out of the box---we tried the ice!

We didn't have un-even clumps of ice...we had snow!!

It totally made snow cone quality ice!  

I think that is a pretty tall order for any blender.

Then Troy & I quickly moved to something more appealing.....

a Snickers Blizzard....YUMMO! 

it has blades at the bottom and about 1/2 way up..hence more even blending!

Mine also came with a smaller container for mixing small batches.

I purchased it at Pamida for $39 (on sale, of course, $10 of the regular price) 

I've also made Strawberry Smoothies...I have to say...pretty awesome!

You are suppose to be able to make salsa & dips (avocado...)..I have not tried that...so, you are on your own if you choose to purchase a Ninja!

The only thing I have noticed is it only has one on button..it's like a 'pulse' button..you can do quick bursts or hold it down.

This is a MUST for smoothie lovers!!
