Chipper? Me? Never...Hey all, I'm in a better mood now through application of coffee, friendship and yummy food, so I thought I'd make with the recipes, so you can all share in my joy.
Catherine's Honeydew-Assisted Strawberry Smoothie
1. Make a yummy set of honeydew melon ice cubes by pureeing 300g of honeydew melon and 20mL of ginger cordial (which burns one's mouth in its concentrated state). Strain it and skim it and make about 12 ice cubes (they apparently go really good with vodka and tonic). Chuck them in the freezer and head back to your blender.
2. Throw in the leftover melon pieces (from a half-melon, I had about four chunks left), the solids from your strainer, and the foam that you skimmed off the top of the strained melon. Add a splash of maple syrup, a big scoop of strawberry icecream and a reasonable amount of milk.
3. Blend! Feel the power!
4. Drink. It's surprisingly nummy.
