NUTRIBULLET & A LITTLE MIRACLE & A DRESS

Well here is the minor miracle as far as I am concerned.  I DO NOT eat greens.  And this has always been a concern.  Even now, when I am in my mad but mature years.  So I got a Nutribullet.  Don't these things always sound good on tv?  So I wasn't expecting much I have to say.  But it is so easy quick and cleaning a doddle.  BUT I have had green leaves mixed with fruit 4 days on the run, and didn't know I was eating them.  I am so proud of myself, and so chuffed with the machine.  It inspired me to pick up my brush and paint it.  I am being careful to still have a very balanced diet (Doc orders) but who would have thought it.  Me eating me greens!!!!!!!!!!!!




I go to a little club called Churchtown Art Club (read about us on facebook) and we had a sketching day.  I call this a w/c sketch and it looks like a dress for an 8 ft woman. It was draped over a ladder. No drawing.  Must take more care next time.  Perhaps she is a lady baseball player that wears it, ha ha



Have a lovely week, keep warm if it is winter where you are.  It is hailing at the moment and cold. Take care xx

  3. Around the world and across the street, my neighbor Gloria was telling me about her 'Nutra-bullet' just yesterday, we stand in the road and chat sometimes. Next thing I know my friend across the Atlantic ocean has the same machine. Maybe it's an evenings gown for a tall woman… it's lovely none the less.

    1. Well what a coincidence!! She has great taste in kitchen appliances! I'd love the dress but anyway it wouldn't fit me I am too small (oh and too chunky)

  4. Looks a very glamourous dress, maybe there are a few very very tall women around that we don't know about! We also bought a nutribullet and slowly getting around to using it. When I saw it on TV my husband came in and thought it was worthwhile but after ordering it we thought we'd. Better turn it...the TV..off before we were sucked into buy something else! I do look at the Shark vacuum cleaner....maybe!! Take care, enjoy your greens and know on this side of the world I'm thinking of you...in the cool!

    1. Thank you for thinking of me way over there. I am not one to impulse buy so I put a lot of thought into this nutribullet. It is just for me and feel if it helps it is worth the money. Enjoy your warm climate (I am not jealous ;(

  5. I think it is an elegant long ball gown, starting to eat greens must be good at any age and if making a disguised mix works for you that's a good thing

    1. Yes that's what I think too Lorraine. My poor Mum had such a struggle with me. Every little helps

  6. Okay Polly - is it because of our mature years that we are using Nutibullet? - I have one too and drink green juice every morning. I just may have to sketch mine as well. I love the dress too. Stay warm and dry as well. Have a merry day! Hugs

    1. Not because of our 'young' years Debbie. They weren't around a while ago. Perhaps we are more aware of our health though, nowadays. Luv xx

  9. I'd rather eat my greens since I am so fond of them. Great little painting of your machine. The dress looks very pretty although a bit long...maybe a gown. Love the colors.
