Recommendations for a smoothie blender thingy?

I'd be interested in trying one but I think I may have had a total of two or three smoothies ever.

There are recipes for them. Online.


I learned something this morning in my research. Raw oatmeal would be a bad thing for me to eat. It has a component called phytic acid which prevents the absorption of certain minerals........including iron. One way to greatly reduce the amount of phytic acid without losing any of the good benefits of reducing hypertension and cholesterol is to soak the oatmeal overnight in milk or water. Cooking oatmeal removes a lot of those good benefits.

So, will soak some oats overnight and add a little to tomorrow's mix.

I like CHOCOLATE! DARK CHOCOLATE! But I don't like milky/cheesy chocolate things. I did use dark chocolate almond milk for a while for the calcium, and I've never been a big milk drinker, or cheese eater, but I stopped drinking that when they changed the formula or something. It started tasting strange.

Baked goods with chocolate are ok. So. There you go.

Chocolate... cheese?

Never had it. Probably never will. Maybe it's good. I don't know. I probably never will.
