I am not sure how I have gone so ling without posting about the Blend Jet. N saw an ad for it around Christmas and wanted it badly. It's an individual blender that makes smoothies and shakes. He wanted to buy it "for the family" and we negotiated and I bought it and he paid a little over half for it. I was a little dubious about it, but it arrived… and N uses it EVERY DAY. Literally. He makes all kinds of things in it. Fruit smoothies, shakes, ice cream-based drinks, juices, etc. He loves to experiment with different fruits (mango, pineapple, strawberry, bananas) and bases (apple juice, water, milk, ice cream). He does it all himself and cleans it up after. We went to TJs and picked out more fruit for it and he has tried it all!
Blend Jet has a HUGE new fan!!!
