• That is SO awesome of you AVL!! Teachers can be so influential on us, even if subtly, until we can look back a bit later. And despite your school still not "getting it" completely with the promotions of the "bad" stuff, it's really wonderful how it …

• My mom let me borrow her Vitamix for a couple of years before she wanted it back and my dh ordered me a Blendtec for Christmas. I really didn't think I'd like the Blendtec as well since it doesn't have a tamper to stir and and on another Vitamox vs …

• I have one and love it! Bluedolfin, it kind of depends on the size of the mango/pit as to how much mango meat is left on the pit. It's usually not much, sometimes if you get smaller sized mango it might leave a little bit of flesh on the pit, but no…
