Unprepared Monday and a Smoothie

Happy Vegan Mofo Monday! I signed up for Vegan Mofo this year, and I am so unprepared today! This is my first year to sign up, because I am fairly new to the blogging world. I am supposed to blog everyday for the entire month of November. That's going to be a challenge for me, because I usually skip 2 or 3 days during the week due to a busy night or something of that nature. My first blog of the month is not going to be a spectacular one, but at least I'm not skipping the first day....right. :o)

I was out of town over the weekend doing doing some hiking at Nathan Bedford Forrest State Park. We stayed in a 1850's log cabin that was so cool, actually the coolest place I have ever stayed. I think this past weekend was the best ever! I will post a few pictures of our trip tomorrow. Anyway, I was craving fruit this morning, since I didn't have any over the weekend. So I thought that a smoothie would be appropriate to curb that fruit craving.. It was really too cold for a smoothie, but what do you do when your body is screaming for it!
Here's how I ended up making my smoothie.

1/2 cup frozen blueberries
4 frozen strawberries
1 frozen banana
3 tablespoons of wheat germ
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon maple syrup
3/4- 1 cup of soy milk

Put all the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth and creamy. :o) You may add a little extra or use a little less milk than called for.... it all depends on how thick you like your smoothies. I like mine thick like a milk shake.
