My husband and I were in Moloka'i Hawaii for 15 days(swapped places with friends), and I had a chance to use her Blend-tec, and let me tell you, I was seriously impressed, as I had major green smoothies just about every day that we were there! Even my husband, who is not easy to impress with kitchen stuff, was blown away by what short work this baby makes of even tough greens like kale, chard and even some stems! These smoothies were FANTASTIC - and the presence of the denser greens was like a transfusion of amazing green energy for me, and so-o smooth - I'm in love! Now I know why I was sticking to spinach and parsley in my trusty old Osterizer at home - LOL!(much less challenging to blend). I also did the most amazing banana-papaya "soft-serve" ice-cream ever! Again, husband was impressed(as he had some of this - he's not ready for green smoothies though - yet - LOL!) We also had the benefit of picking up on our friends' weekly organic veggie box subscription that had tons of greens, grown by a major permaculturist/intensive biodynamic gardener. These were THE best veggies we've ever eaten, seriously - we really noticed a difference in flavor, and how we felt, too!
Anyhow, upshot of this is that husband has given the go-ahead to get the Blend-tec HP3a(raweater, I know you're out there, and I remember your enthusiasm for this one)! To make this even better, my best girlfriend in Florida has offered to chip in for it for my birthday(coming up on the 21st). I told her she should check this out too, because she has been changing her diet to predominantly raw, with tips from myself along the way as I go along, which she has really appreciated.
So-o excited here!
