The group of 6 or so musicians sat casually next to booths selling freshly picked tomatoes, cabbages and sunflowers, and plucked cheerfully at their instruments, putting together a fun show of swing/jazz for the Sunday morning shopping crowd. I was immediately drawn to their music and bought the CD. After returning to New York City, that CD was my only audio link back to the West Coast. Whenever I put the music on I was taken right back to the smell of fresh herbs, lively bargains and a laid-back crowd in the warm sun.

As I’m playing the CD again today, I thought to myself, what goes better with the cheerful music than a cup of blueberry smoothie! So that’s what I did – frozen blueberry, a drip of honey, plain yogurt and low fat milk and – BLEEEEND. Perfect afternoon dessert ready in 2 minutes!
