Berry Smoothies

1/2 - 1 cup milk
1 cup mixed frozen berries
1 cup plain yogurt
1-2 scoops vanilla icecream

Put all the ingredients in a blender, milk first. Blend until the berries are in tiny bits, and the whole thing is mixed thoroughly. You can blend it, then turn the blender down to the stir option to let the stuff on top settle down to the bottom, then blend again to blend up what was on top before.

P.S. This is my dad's recipe.

Carrot Puddin'

I know that sounds really weired but it is like a very good bread pudding. I got it out of this cute book called, 'The Giant Carrot: (By) Barry Root'

Combine and blend until smooth:

1 cup peeled and grated carrots
1/2 cup milk
2 whole eggs
1/2 tsp nutmeg (I used a lot more then that)
1/2 tsp cinnamon (with this one too)
2 tbsp melted butter
1 cup honey (or 1 cup brown sugar + 1/4 cup water)

When smooth, stir in gently:

4 slices bread, cut into cubes
1/4 cup raisins
1/4 cup chopped nuts

Pour into greased baking dish.
Bake for one hour at 350 degree.
Serve hot or cold in coffee cups.
Delicious with ice cream too, or cream cheese icing.

It is pretty good.
