I am SO-O thrilled! UPS made an early evening delivery, and I made my first thing in it just now - some banana-peach-apricot soft-serve raw ice-cream, a variant of the cherry-vanilla-coconut one I posted a few days ago under the recipes and food prep area. I'm still getting used to the cycles, programs etc., but I'm sure that I'll get the hang of this pretty fast. Firming up in the freezer right now - hard to wait as this is so-o yummy! While reading the book that came with it, I didn't realize that one could also "juice" whole veggies(with the addition of some water)so this will be an interesting and therapeutic area to get into, as well as my super green smoothies. It fits beautifully into its allotted spot in my apartment kitchen, and we know that counter "real estate" can be a challenge sometimes - LOL!

Hey Cara - You're lovin' your BT!! Mine gets used every single day, that's for sure :)

I "juice" my wheat grass in the BT and then strain it through a nut milk (ok - paint strainer) bag, works like a charm. I don't mind that it's 'watered down'...

I have got to try your ice cream recipe. I saw it and will head over there to copy it down.

I make a GS every morning - ahhh, Heaven for sure! *Ü*
