In this episode, I'd like to include some food and cooking vocabulary,

and with a mini-story, you will improve your English fluency.

You'll see, it's like having a conversation with another person.

You know, when I enter the kitchen, the first thought I have is,

why am I here? Yeah, I'm hungry, that's why. Now I remember. I open the refrigerator

and start scanning for some delicious food. Since I don't buy ready-made food,

I usually stare at the fridge for some minutes

until it starts beeping.

Then I close it and open it again to continue scanning.

And I'm not saying my refrigerator isn't well organized. It's just that I'm looking for

something that I can prepare in one minute, or preferably even less. Many times, I end up making a green

smoothie. That's a fast and easy way of getting all the needed nutrients. And plus, smoothies are

delicious. By the way, a smoothie is a thick drink that you can make using fruits, vegetables,

greens, seeds, milk, ice, etc.

Like I said earlier, I usually end up making a green smoothie.

Don't panic, it's green, but it's really yummy.

I add some water or milk, one avocado, half a cup of pineapple, half frozen banana, two cups

of spinach, and half a cup of ice cubes. I put it at speed 10 for 45 seconds, and the smooth

is ready. Delicious. By the way, in case you are wondering, I use a Vitamix blender to prepare my smoothies.

And I don't use it only for that.

I also make frozen desserts with it, soups, I can make flowers with it,

almond milk, batters, dough, nut butter, juices, dips, etc.
