Ninja Smoothie
27 Mar
This ninja has been traveling in my cars for nearly ten years.
You might even say we’re been through a lot: three accidents, ten states and nearly 50,000 miles.
He’s definitely seen his share of smoothies in the car:
So this morning was no different.
Please ignore the mess that is my car. Esther needs cleaned.
Today’s ninja mix included some of my favorites:
- Skim milk
- 1/8 cup POM
- Strawberries
- Blueberries
- Banana
- 1/2 cup oats
- Dollop of cool whip
- and PB – not pictured

I feel strange about there being no lobster placemat in this post but at least there’s a ninja. More LPs later on
What do you keep in your car?

Mmmmmmm… I want a smoothie now!
I keep my CD collection in the truck of my car. It’s the only place where I have a CD player now.
I have a owl from bambi figurine and a toy giraffe in my car that have been there since I was in high school — about 8 yrs ago! They too have been through three different vehicles with me!
THAT NINJA IS TOO FUN!!
Love the smoothie!!
hahaha. I keep a wooden bead necklace lei type thing in my car from a trip to Hawaii and a mini crab hair clip from France. I collect lobster and crab things! So I LOVE your lobster placemat!
I made a smoothie with Pom this morning too. YUM!
My hobbit car is a disaster area, so no worries. Love the ninja!
Hahahah ninja power!
I keep all my cut out coupons so that they are there if I make an impromptu trip to the store.
LOVE the ninja!!!
I had a great little grateful dead bear that went with me everywhere in my first 2 cars… this new one doesnt have a friend yet, but i need one!!
Your ninja is awesome!
I have a tibetian good luck charm hanging from my rear view mirror…..it’s a small ivory (don’t think it’s real ivory) fish. So far so good with the good luck….no accidents since I’ve had it (knock on wood).
Found your blog for the first time today and I’m really enjoying your fun spirit here!
I had a question on your smoothie recipe and the fact that you include a “dollop of cool whip.” Do you use it as a sweetener? And do you worry about the hydrogenated fats and high fructose corn syrup in cool whip?
Curious if you’d tried other sweeteners and if they didn’t work for you.
Thanks!

hahha I love the ninja! I don’t have a car personally, but my brother has this plush toy snake he won at Six Flags once wrapped around the passenger’s seat. I love that thing for some reason!
I try to keep nothing in my car. I like it clean and free of stuff. I do have rain gear in my trunk though, for work.
I love the ninja. My car is a bit cluttered because I never throw out bank slips! The door pocket is a mess!
I’m glad you name your car too, mine is Bugsy!
ahaha that ninja is cracking me up
as for the smoothie – well it just sounds amazing!!!
