Ingredients

1 1/2 cups Blueberries, (frozen for thicker smoothie)
1 cup Strawberries, (frozen for thicker smoothie)
1 Banana, (optional)
1/2 cup Peaches or Mango, (only if Banana is not desired)
1 cup Vanilla or Honey Yogurt, (Greek style for tartness and creaminess)
1-2 cups Orange Juice or other fruit juice, (amount depends on blender)

Directions

1. Combine frozen blueberries, strawberries and other desired fruits into blender. Blender should be no more than halfway filled with fruit.
2. Add 1-2 cups of orange juice, apple juice or pineapple juice to blender and blend until smooth. You may need to add more orange juice depending on the strength of your blender.
3. Add yogurt to your smoothie and push down into mixture with spoon. Blend until smooth and creamy.
4. Pour smoothies into two large glasses and serve with a straw. Enjoy!
   
    *Hints
   Frozen fruits make smoothies thicker
   Yoghurt make smoothies creamier
   You need to adjust the amount of liquid depending on the fruits
   Honey is a good natural sweetener
   When you buy bananas , peel them, slice them, put in a sealed container and freeze. Then you can just take out a few chunks at a time and your smoothies will be colder and nicer flavored.

Saw the below on Facebook and it makes a lot of sense. 

DO NOT wash your hair in the shower!!

It's so good to finally get a health warning that is useful!!!

IT INVOLVES THE SHAMPOO WHEN IT RUNS DOWN YOUR BODY WHEN YOU SHOWER WITH IT. WARNING TO US ALL!!!

Shampoo Warning! I don't know WHY I didn't figure this out sooner! I use shampoo in the shower! When I wash my hair, the shampoo runs down my whole body, and printed very clearly on the shampoo label is this warning, "FOR EXTRA BODY AND VOLUME."

No wonder I have been gaining weight! Well! I got rid of that shampoo and I am going to start showering with Dawn Dishwashing Soap. It's label reads, "DISSOLVES FAT THAT IS OTHERWISE DIFFICULT TO REMOVE."

Problem solved! If I don't answer the phone, I'll be in the shower!
