One of the best things about having my own place is the fact that I get a huge say in what is bought for groceries. Last time Corey and I had to buy groceries almost all the fruits and veggies were on sale so we stalked up! I guess it helped that I was in the mood for pineapple and coconut.
So today, after lunch of course, Corey said that ice cream sounded super delicious to him. But I wanted something healthy... so as most married couples we compromised!
We ended up making tropical fruit smoothies and they were delicious!!! =]
All you need is:
Vanilla ice cream
coconut
pineapple
banana
lime

The short story of a great giant.
Once upon a time there was a giant who was beautiful in all different manners and who grew to be known as America. One day as the giant was sleeping some silly little men fell upon it's back, they saw the giant's beauty and knew that they wanted to live there. Later many little people came and brought their families to live and to grow alongside the giant. These people grew up and made a home with the giant but another giant grew jealous ,the two giants had a duel to see who would keep the little people. The first giant was rather small and inexperienced in the ways of a duel. The second giant was old and respected by all the other giants who knew of it's reputation, this giant was called England. After a very bloody duel the first giant was awarded the little people it loved so much. And the second giant went away licking it's wounds in frustration.
As the years went by the giant became bigger and mightier, it fought duels alongside other giants. Some duels the giant's side won and some it lost. After many years of peace and quite days the giant went to sleep. The little people went on with their lives and forgot about the perils of a duel until one day.....
A little ugly man who was cruel and evil came upon the sleeping giant and poked it, when the giant awoke the little ugly man went and hid under a rock. The giant searched night and day, it even sent out all manner of warriors out after it. Soon the giant grew sad and lost hope in finding the little ugly man, it thought it must be doing something wrong. So the giant elected a little frog to tell it what to do, the frog lied and made empty promises about how grand it could make the giant and how he would help all the little people. Some people saw through his lies but in the end he was elected. Over the years he had heavy chains made, he took these chains and wrapped them around the giant to make it powerless. The little people began to see what he was doing; the older people didn't much care because they would soon be dead, the middle aged people became angry and wanted to kick the frogs butt, the younger people became very concerned because they knew that they would have to free the giant.
Some time after the giants warriors were out looking under rocks, and they found the little ugly man and they made him pay for all the trouble he had caused the giant and all the little people he had hurt. When the little people heard what had happened to the little man they were filled with joy and a sliver of hope was restored to their hearts. But then the frog went around telling all that could hear that he had taken care of the little man. But the little people were smart and they went around thanking any and all warriors that they happened to know. And for a time the little people were happy. The End.... for now
