Batido de Mamey Recipe (Mamey Smoothie)
/The Glass is Half-Full
My family and I are on vacation this week.
And I confess that I was going to skip posting a recipe (Shut up. I know!) because I was busy preparing what I’d take and planning what we would do.
But then, I started thinking of summer…
Ah, summer.
I started thinking about how I’m going to slowly savor that giant stack of books I have been saving.
See? I can’t even stop with the food metaphors for one post, but that’s not important right now.
I started thinking sandals and sunscreen.
Long walks on the beach and amazing sunsets.
Barbecuing every night and . . .
Batidos de Mamey!
You can take the Cuban mom out of the kitchen….
