Getting good fruit

I’ve discovered a good way to get the fruits I like inexpensively and regardless of the season and that way is to buy frozen fruit.  I had recently picked up a bag of blueberries and a bag of strawberries for smoothies.  I usually just take the frozen fruit and put it directly in the blender but a couple of weeks ago I let some sit out on the counter in a bowl and the end result was better than I expected.  The blueberries were round and sweet and tart and the strawberries were a little soft but not to soft and they were sweet as well.  It was a nice surprise and a reminder that no matter the season I can go to the freezer section of the grocery store and find fruit.

5 A DAY!

Okay, I’m really excited because yesterday was the first time that I can recall in recent memory that I achieved my 5 servings of fruits and vegetables in a day.   I had 3 servings of fruit and 2 servings of vegetables.   Have you gotten your 5 A DAY?  I did 30 minutes of exercise as well.  So on that front it was a good day.
