Usually I don&#8217;t start with the very first recipe but after my workout this morning I needed a smoothie and I had been wanting to try this one as soon as I read it. <\/p>\n<p>I love this book so much, I&#8217;m not going to post any recipes from it. Yeah that&#8217;s right, I want you to buy it. I will however, give you the gist and tease you with photos of all the yummy creations I make from it. &#8216;Mama Pea&#8217; as she refers to herself, is a fun and witty writer, her cookbook has about as many funny stories as recipes and I love it even more for that. The story behind this smoothie involves a whole lotta good natured teasing of her husband&#8217;s love for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tommybahama.com\/TBG\/Men\/Shirts\/View_All\/PRD_T34169\/Bird+is+the+New+Black+Camp+Shirt.jsp\" target=\"_blank\">Tommy Bahama<\/a>. Hi-larious.<\/p>\n<p>This smoothie combines three things I love but have never put together; blackberries, ginger and basil. When I mentioned this to my dear friend Gill she thought it sounded like a winner, when I mentioned it to another dear friend <em>who shall remain nameless<\/em> I got &#8216;who knew??&#8217; <- that's 2 question marks, people. So it's a flavor combo that might not sound amazing - but believe me, it totally is. I ment to have one small cup - I had two and then I insisted Wee One #3 finish off the rest of the batch to keep me from drinking it all. She liked it too! It's exactly the right kind of refreshing feeling I need post workout when I'm all flushed and pink and staggering off to the shower.\n\n\n\n<div align=\"center\">\n<table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" width=\"100%\">\n<tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"content\" colspan=\"2\"><img src=\"\/images\/v2\/healthy\/blackberry-basil-smash-smoothie\/blackberry-basil-smash-smoothie-title.jpg\" title=\"peas and thank you blackberry basil smash smoothie\" alt=\"peas and thank you blackberry basil smash smoothie\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"content\" colspan=\"2\">\n<div align=\"center\"><img class=\"border\" src=\"\/images\/v2\/healthy\/blackberry-basil-smash-smoothie\/blackberry-basil-smash-smoothie-01.jpg\" title=\"peas and thank you blackberry basil smash smoothie\" alt=\"peas and thank you blackberry basil smash smoothie\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"content\" colspan=\"2\">\n<div align=\"center\"><img class=\"border\" src=\"\/images\/v2\/healthy\/blackberry-basil-smash-smoothie\/blackberry-basil-smash-smoothie-02.jpg\" title=\"peas and thank you blackberry basil smash smoothie\" alt=\"peas and thank you blackberry basil smash smoothie\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"content\">\n<div align=\"center\"><img class=\"border\" src=\"\/images\/v2\/healthy\/blackberry-basil-smash-smoothie\/blackberry-basil-smash-smoothie-03.jpg\" title=\"peas and thank you blackberry basil smash smoothie\" alt=\"peas and thank you blackberry basil smash smoothie\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"content\">\n<div align=\"center\"><img class=\"border\" src=\"\/images\/v2\/healthy\/blackberry-basil-smash-smoothie\/blackberry-basil-smash-smoothie-04.jpg\" title=\"peas and thank you blackberry basil smash smoothie\" alt=\"peas and thank you blackberry basil smash smoothie\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"content\" colspan=\"2\">\n<div align=\"center\"><img class=\"border\" src=\"\/images\/v2\/healthy\/blackberry-basil-smash-smoothie\/blackberry-basil-smash-smoothie-05.jpg\" title=\"peas and thank you blackberry basil smash smoothie\" alt=\"peas and thank you blackberry basil smash smoothie\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>This is a winner and will definitely be used in full rotation in my kitchen!<br \/>\n<Br> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So I mentioned last week that this year, I&#8217;m cooking and baking my way though Peas and Thank You&#8216;s cookbook (you can grab the Kindle edition for 7 and change here).
