In Which I Fall in Love

By Sue | February 13th, 2014

I am in love.

Like, head over heels in love.

I know…I know…with Valentines Day approaching, one might be prone to get all googly-eyed at the drop of a hat. But let me assure you:

This relationship is as serious as a Chiberian snowstorm.

How do I adequately describe the object of my affections?

Reliable.

Steadfast.

Good for me.

I wake up each morning with a smile of my face, stretch languidly, and pad downstairs to greet my love, anticipating the beauty that we will create together.

No, we’re not sharing a bed…I’m not *that* kind of girl.  But make no mistake:

This is the real deal.

Want to see a picture?

Nutribullet

My Nutribullet. *cue Barry White*

While I still carry a torch for all things starchy, salty, and cheese-smothered, my Nutribullet has made its way into my heart for good.  And I mean it.  Literally.

For good.

It is so good for me, I can hardly stand it.

Now?  I ingest enough good stuff at breakfast to propel me through my morning workout with energy to spare.

With my Nutribullet at my side? I feel better.  Look better.  Am better.

As much as I despise that tired line from Jerry Maguire…

Jerry Maguire

You complete me.  Nutribullet.

I’ve been sharing my concoctions on Facebook, Pinterest, and Google Plus…and today, my Nutribullet and I are simply giddy to bring you something in keeping with Valentines Day:

Healthy Smoothie

The Heartthrob.  Ga gung…ga gung.

The Heartthrob:

One banana

Four strawberries

Two tablespoons of pomegranate seeds

A splash of almond milk

A tablespoon of hemp seeds

Throw in your Nutribullet and blend until that thang is as pink as my love-flushed cheeks.

BOOM.   Vitamins, protein, and fiber out the wazoo.  Um…wait an hour or so for the “out the wazoo” part.

Want to keep in touch with my love affair with the Nutribullet?  Be sure to follow my Eats:  Keeping it Clean board on Pinterest.

*This is NOT a sponsored post, and I received no compensation from Nutribullet for voicing my opinions.  Although I totally should.  I just feel compelled to announce my joy from the mountaintops.  Tell me…do YOU have a healthy object of affection?  I’d love to hear about it in the comments.

**Inspired by a prompt from Mama Kat.

    Clearly I need one of these for Valentine’s Day. My regular blender is just not cutting it these days. Ok, that was a horrible pun but so true!! Going to follow on Pinterest…

      The Nutribullet? Kicks any blender’s arse, Allie. It’s got about a gazillion times more pulverizing power.

    I love this post! A blender may last longer than a relationship anyway! Visiting from Mama Kat.

    Love it! Thanks for the giggle. My non-human love post wouldn’t be quite so healthy as yours. :)

    Okay. That was adorable. Barry White music. Nice touch. You totally should be paid for this post. I hope you at least sent it to the geniuses at Nutribullet. I do it all the time. Which is probably why I have an inch-thick stack of restraining orders on someone’s desk somewhere. (sigh)

    You might have inspired me finally to break the seal on the unopened Magic Bullet (how different can they be, right?) in my cabinet.

    Maybe.

    Thanks for linking up, Sue. Please come back and see us on the 1st.
