i love my blue blue blueberries. 

ours have, of course, stopped growing for the winter season and i’ve already eaten all the extra ones we froze. but yesterday my mom bought a giant bag of frozen organic blueberries! organic is always better (i don’t want my food having nasty chemicals on it that the military originally used to kill their opponents in the first world war… no way) but for berries, spinach and apples – organic is EXTRA SUPER awesome because otherwise they are some of the most contaminated foods.
check it out here, homies. 

and hey, lucky me – i’ve also got organic spinach. be jealous. so i threw all these magical ingredients together in my vita-mix blender and out came a delicious dark purple concoction that i will call a blueberry hemp smoothie from this day forward. it makes the spinach seem like a secret… shhh.
