My blender is a trusted, fool-proof tool that has been going strong for the last 4 years. One of my favorite Roxberry smoothies is the Peanut Butter Blast.

This recipe is my best attempt to replicate that smoothie. I like to serve this as a side

This is my kind of cute effort to give at St. Patrick's Day. If it doesn't happen during breakfast, I make this fruit and chocolate platter for dinner.

If you are looking for an easy way to put some effort into the holiday, give this one a whirl. Here is a link to a blue platter that works for the blue sky background for your fruit rainbow. Enjoy!
