Sometimes these cheery little frozen extruded chips just do the trick for a smile.
(Especially if you squish them down into catsup and it extrudes out the eyes and mouth.
It would be rather a lot, what with this pomegranate fruit smoothie. )

I only wish the colors on this image are horribly wrong by camera. The instructions were to mix the pomegranate-grape juice in a blender with soy milk and a banana. It made a non-appetizing color and smell. I thought I’d just let it sit for a bit — not a great call. Separating out didn’t improve its pretty-factor. Glug in a jug is what I think I’ll call it. Hilarious to the 8-year-old inside. If something must go wrong, spectacularly and harmlessly are the best way. Maybe I’d be better off trying wheat grass lemonade.
