Max's Smoothie

'Cheers Big Ears!' I said aloud, grinning from ear to ear.

 Today at school Max brought me a smoothie that he made with Mrs Cacace. He was learning to follow instructions to make a healthy smoothie and he brought me a glass. What an awesome surprise!

As soon as I saw it, I knew that one of the ingredients must be the super vege ' SPINACH'  BECAUSE IT WAS A LIME GREEN.....and it looked  the same colour as my smoothies I make every morning. 

When I was a kid, there was a TV cartoon character called Popeye the Sailorman who would down a tin of spinach whenever he needed strength to fight off the baddies. Who'd figure that years later I would be downing spinach too, except there are other ingredients with it like banana and kiwifruit.

Wel,l I was supposed to have it for lunch but then Mrs Tamati an ex-teacher at Parkvale came in to see me and the class, and I forgot about my smoothie sitting in the teacher station.

So it was again a nice surprise when after school, I peered ito my teacher station and saw that super smoothie sitting there just waiting to be swallowed. Kathy our cleaner was in the classroom at this stage so I asked her to take a photo of me just before I drank it.

Yuuummmm! Cheers Max, I enjoyed that.
