And for today's random photo, let my introduce to you Big Ted and Casper the Friendly Ghost! Ironically enough neither of them were my toys as a wee girl. Teg belonged to my brother, but wasn't he well loved (not as much as monkey boy...wonder where he ended up?) look at him, poor soul, he has no nose and only one eye! Now Casper, he belonged to my sister, who a few years ago was going to chuck him out - but I rescued him. I imagine he's on his way to being an antique - he has a pull cord at the back of his neck, and a very strange sounding recording say, ooooohhh I'm casper, I'm a friendly ghost... along with about three others!A few people have suggested that I put on the odd smoothie recipe, so this is rather a nice one...
Strawberry Shake up
100 g strawberries
100 mls yoghurt
50 g grapes or 1 cup of grape juice
1 orange
Wash and hull the strawberries (or do what I do and use frozen ones!) Blend the strawberries, grapes and orange together. Then add the yoghurt and blend for about 20 seconds. Pour into a large glass and decorate with a strawberry.
Banana and Coconut Milk
2 large bananas
250mls of coconut milk (coconut cream is nicer, way more calories, but yummo!)
pinch of ground cinnamon
Blend the bananas and coconut milk then pour into a glass and sprinkle on the cinnamon.
So there you go - tell me your favourite fruits and I'll go through my books and see what I come up with!
Have a good weekend all...

Yep they both sound yummy. Ooh and I LOVE Casper - that was one of my favourite comic books - Wendy and the terrible trio
Never seen a Casper before. Very cute to both of them and the story behind them.
As for the smoothies - YUM
I have seen one ... putting my hand up ... one of my friends a long time ago had a Casper ... that took me back, quite some time ago. Something that I had well and truly forgotten about
