Green Juice

I've never been a huge fan of drinking my vegetables, so when I first saw C drinking this super anti-oxidant kale shake, I threw up in my mouth a little. He's been on this green juice kick for about six months now and swears by its miraculous healing powers. He has also had it in his head for awhile that I don't eat enough vegetables or drink enough water, so he's been pushing this hexavalent chromium-looking concoction on me like a televangelist. My coworkers are convinced he's trying to poison me.
If I'm still asleep when he leaves for work in the morning, he leaves a tall glass of it in the freezer for me and reminds me to drink it when he kisses me goodbye. He sometimes texts me while he's on the bus and says, "Don't forget the shake." He might be crazed.
Here's the thing, though. It's not a chocolate croissant or anything, but this stuff does grow on you and you start to believe that it's the reason you can go about your morning not wanting to kill everyone in sight before your first cup of coffee.
If you are brave enough to give it a try, or maybe you watch Dr. Oz and follow the disturbing plethora of juicehead blogs and drink this stuff all the time...but here's the recipe:

• Throw some frozen blueberries, a big bunch of kale, about one and a half bananas, some water, a tsp or so of vanilla, cinnamon and red pepper and some ice cubes in a blender and mix it up. 

You can eyeball the ingredients and use more or less according to taste. Sometimes he throws in some agave to make it a little sweeter. Cheers.
