The Daily Balance

I have found a new obsession.

Just a few weeks ago, a new smoothie shop/cafe opened just a short walk from my house.

Liquid Planet, exclusive to the Cleveland area, serves up salads, pitas, soups, smoothies and juices daily. The cafe uses organic and local ingredients, whenever possible.

Confession: The Mister and I have eaten here (and when I say ‘eaten here, I mean take out ) more 5 than times over the past two weeks. — Oh come on, stop raising your eyebrows at me! Jury duty has been keeping me later than usual and I haven’t had the time (or energy!) to whip up tasty dishes.

I always determine the ‘amazingness’ (yes, it’s a word) of a smoothie joint AFTER I try the peanut butter and banana smoothie (and they don’t even make it past the consideration point if they don’t offer one!). I figure that even if it is sub-par, it’s still PB and banana, how could you go wrong!? Well after trying Liquid Planet’s rendition, the Elvis Chill, I was certain I found a new favorite.

It was DELICIOUS! Made with non-fat frozen yogurt, it was the perfect consistency, with just the right peanut butter and banana ratio

After the Liquid Planet passed my pb/banana test, I figured I could give something else a try. Next up – pumpkin spice smoothie.

OMG.

Honestly, I told the Mister to watch me carefully because I am THIS CLOSE to buying 100 gallons of ice cream and pumpkin to make a bath of this heavenly concoction.

Do you have a favorite smoothie joint? What is your favorite concoction?

   I ADORE Liquid Planet – there is not a single thing on the menu that I don’t like! It’s up there with Dave’s Cosmic Subs

   I haven’t found a favorite place yet, but I always love getting tropical flavored smoothies – like mango, banana, pineapple etc. SO yummy!
