Beyond The Blue

[#1]

What’s the first thing that pops into your mind when you think about the 4^th of July? The first thing that comes to my mind is planning BBQs with family and friends. But I was thinking the other day as we made plans for the day, that many of us don’t take a moment to reflect what this date really means to us who live in this beautiful country we call the United States of America. How it represents our freedom to do just that: spend time with our family and friends at BBQs, camping, swimming, and watching fireworks or whatever you’ll be doing this 4^th of July.

I’m also excited to share with you the great technology that helps my day be fun, relaxing, and makes my life easier. (Especially if it’s my year to host the BBQ!):

Your margaritas will be super easy to make using this great blender! Mix, blend, juice and process all of your favorite foods with the amazingly high-powered Ninja Mega Kitchen System. Make smoothies in a hurry for you or the whole family, mix bread and dessert dough in mere seconds and cut your food prep time in half with the even chopping performance of the food processor attachment. This blender definitely makes my life easier.
