I wonder if a dash of vanilla in the berry smoothie would work?

Highly recommend it. Made my kids my famous banana THICKshake yesterday. Gotta have a splash of vanilla.

597979 2007-10-04 23:42:00 I think the missus has some really expensive all natural vanilla that is supposed to be used for only special cooking occasions. I'll have to find it. Biggles (121)
597980 2007-10-05 01:12:00 ... so I will have to make sure I sniff my Zen before I do this, not after.

That statement in itself would have a psychiatrist worried :stare:

Ooooooooh.......vanilla extract as opposed to essence?

Nice.

Nice.Yeah it's gotta be extract - essence only has a use in kiddie's cupcakes.

597983 2007-10-05 05:34:00 Yup, essence really just gives it a fake almost chemical smell and taste as well. With the pods the full subtlety can be felt in each bite. I always notice the difference though the smell between DAP/MP3 players??? Lets not go there...:lol: beeswax34 (63)
597984 2007-10-08 02:41:00 Well ...

1] The pure extract rocks. Just a few drops in the smoothie adds a subtle little edge. Yummy.
2] I smell my Zen and at first I thought, Yes, there is a fruity smell there. But then I realised I was smelling the leather of the case I have it in to stop it going the way of the first one if I drop it.

So maybe the originator of this little urban myth had theirs in a leather case too.

597985 2007-10-08 07:16:00 Well I do intend to make a berry smoothie when I get home ...

- 1 banana
- good helping of frozen berries
- half a cup of natural unsweetened yogurt
- dash of water to thin it down a bit
- one creative zen vision

Whiz in the blender. Luxury.

... so I will have to make sure I sniff my Zen before I do this, not after.

Fixed, that should do the trick.

iPod all the way.
