Newest Member of our Family

In Maycie's words "We don't have any animals in our family Mom, just kids. " This is a very true statement. However, we have added a new member or rather a supporting member to our family. The Vitamix! We researched and planned a lot longer for this newest member then for any of our three children. We went through a few obstacles to finance this latest addition and paid more for it than we ever did for the births of our children (insurance pretty well covered those). Some do complain that the Vitamix is a loud addition however, we argue that it does come with an on/off switch installed, which children don't have. :) Thus far we have made smoothies, ground wheat into flour and made yummy wheat bread and tonight we plan to make soup with it. We have decided to keep it, we like it and are happy to have it!!! Finally after years of thought and months of saving on the side our desire to own one of these "babies" had come to fruition.

Never heard of these, but I believe a good blender is an absolute essential in the kitchen!

Hooray! Why don't babies come with on-off switches? Evolution must not be true :)
