Peas on Film: A Smoothie for Pea Daddy
Don’t you deserve another Peas and Thank You vlog?
You’re saying, “No. We left you hundreds of messages of love and support and this is what you give us?!”
Yes. Yes, it is. I’m not going to take pictures of the Diet Coke I drank from the hospital vending machine. I had no witty anecdotes about the two bowls of cereal and pickles I ate for lunch. Pea Daddy obviously got a smoothie for dinner. Trust me, this is the best I could do tonight.
I feel like I’ve been given some lemons lately and so I’ve stayed away from my computer and my blog…and your blog unfortunately. I’m so sorry to hear about your Grandpa! I really hope he’s okay and I’ll add him to my prayers.
I love your video. I know it’s hard to put on such a pretty face when you’re under so much stress, but you did a great job and I just miss you so much!
Big hugs love!
Erin
Thanks for the awesome blog, Mama Pea and Gigi! I can always use another smoothie recipe and you definitely know your stuff. I hope your grandfather is continuing to get better. My prayers are with you and your family.
Have a lovely day!
xox
Thanks for the smoothie recipe and video Mama Pea and Gigi!
By the way, Mr Pea has a deeper voice than I would have pictured!!!
Hope your family is doing better!
Love the vlog, MP…Can’t believe Gigi really did want to munch on that raw spinach! What a little angel!
Hugs <3
Looks like a good smoothie, ladies! I’ll be sending healing vibes to you and your loved ones.
I’m so sorry to hear about your grandpa, Mama Pea. I will definitely be keeping you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.
In my feeble attempt to lighten the mood…I loved your video! I seem to remember a certain someone making fun of me and my “tamper” when I made nut butter in the Vita-Mix. Thought you’d appreciate your commentary: http://eatingbender.com/2009/04/04/homemade-raw-almond-butter-video/
Glad to know you no longer need to borrow my tamper
I love you! Sending good thoughts your way.
Pea Daddy has a sexy voice…ha ha ha
You’re in our thoughts in prayers.
Looks good! Almost like my daily green smoothie! I love Gigi eating a leaf of spinach. Made my day!
Ohhhhh my you guys are so cute, true star quality!!! Gigi was making me rotfl… “The VACCUUM CLEANER!!!”
She is something else, and you are adorable, the way you guys interact. Definitely a watchable, great vlog.
I’m sure Daddy Pea appreciated his smoothie!
Continued wishes of health for Grandpa…lots of love and prayers for you guys… xoxo
P.S. Appropriate appreciation on the part of Pea Daddy…”Very good shake, btw.” Right on.!
U and Gigi are the best Pea Daddy Smoothie making team ever!!! So cute! Loved watching the vlog!
Keep your head up girl, I hope your pap is doing good, I know how hard that is, I send prayers xoxo
Thanks for even blogging
I hope your grandfather gets better soon! You and your family have been in my thoughts and prayers. I will cheer myself up by looking at pictures of my friends and families to remember all of our fun times.
And sometimes you need that damn diet coke.
Love these videos so much!!! Gigi is going to be a star someday. too bad she is so shy on camera! LOL
I can only hope I can manage to raise a kid who requests to snack on a bit of spinach. Personally, I’dve gone for the frozen fruit.
And I’ve been having spinach in my smoothie every day for over a month now. I was so skeptical of putting greens in it but it’s wonderful. I’m sure Pea Daddy’s smoothie was great, and I hope your grandpa is feeling better!
Pea Daddy day is coming up! Sunday count-down
Yummers! Still thinking about you and your family. Hugs!
1. You’re tall!
2. Pea Daddy does have a deep sexy voice!
3. I’m going to check out Vita-Cost
4. My VM is never fully clean either and when it is, it doesn’t last.
5. Gigi is super cute
Hope you’re hanging in there!
OMGGGG I’M FOAMING AT THE MOUTHHHH…vloggggggg
I hope you are doing ok today. You are all in my thoughts!
Loved the video!! So cute!! I love how excited Gigi gets about the spinach, so much that she wants to eat a leaf right then and there on the spot!!
You have such a great helper!
Whenever you say Pea Daddy it makes me think Puff Daddy (P. Diddy?) has a new name…
I really hope your Grandpas okay!
Cute video! Just to let you know, I have been checking out prices online for rice protein and hadn’t heard of Vita Cost before, so I compared it to the Vitamin Shoppe and got a lower price at vitaminshoppe.com. (11.87 for 650g container vs. 14.16). Not a huge difference, but I just wanted you to know! I’m always looking out for grocery deals
What a great way to start my day! I loved watching this and how your put your smoothies together
And LOVE your kitchen! I always put 5 spinach leaves in mine…ha ha.
Loved the vlog! Hoping things lighten up for you soon!
I loved this!! Gigi is so cute – and funny! I’m definitely craving a smoothie right now
.
So sorry to hear about your grandpa. Sending best wishes to you and your family.
I haven’t had time to tell you until now, but your grandfather and whole family are in my prayers.
Also – love the vlogs, love you, love Gigi, and I have to say – Pea Daddy’s voice was deeper than I expected!
I just now caught up on the blog– I hope your grandpa is okay
I’m sending prayers and good thoughts your way.
I heart Pea Vlogs! Still thinking and sending good thoughts your way.
P.S. Pea Daddy should do James Earl Jones-esque voice overs or ominous movie trailer intros- such a funny end to the video!
Love seeing you and Gigi!
Love you!!
xoxo
I can’t believe Tommy Bahama hasn’t called Pea Daddy to do the voice over for their commercials! He’s a natural.
(I didn’t enter your giveaway because I just won Stevia from Allie. Can’t wait to hear who the lucky winners are!)
Keeping you and your family in my thoughts. It’s really a rough time for a lot of folks right now. I’m generally not a Astrology/Universe blah blah sort of person but I’m seriously wondering if something in retrograde isn’t messing with us.
Hugs to everyone and lots of love!
Mama Pea,
I’m a recent follower to your blog and I just have to let you know that I love it! I caught up and read a bunch of old blogs.
I decided to have a green smoothie for breakfast- i was a bit skeptical about the spinach. But I loved it! Thanks for sharing all your recipes, I’m not vegan but am trying to eat healthier and can’t wait to try a bunch of your recipes!
Hope your gpa gets better soon, I’ll be praying.
Thank you, Erin! Gigi’s wrong, isn’t she? You really can’t taste the spinach! I hope you have lots of success with your healthy eating efforts and let me know what recipes you end up trying!
I love Pea Daddy’s voice in the background! “Very good shake by the way.” it’s so deep and manly! haha.
You and Gigi are way too cute please get on Food Network asap.
hahah, I love how gigi grabbed a spinach leaf to eat. So darn cute!
Gigi is so cute! I love the vlog!
Gigi is just so cute!
Such a cute vlog!
Very cute vlog, thanks! You have an adorable family.
Oh this is the best! Love it! It’s like being right there in the kitchen with you and Gigi. Nothing like seeing real life. But it leaves me wanting more…so I hope you keep vlogging! But under different circumstances..I’m so sorry about Grandpa.
I just love videos! When you read someone’s blog for a while, you get an idea of what their voice sounds like in your head so it’s nice to see what their voice really sounds like! I have to say, Mama Pea, that you really make me look forward to the day when I have little peas running around my house as well.
I just read about your Papa – I am thinking about you guys! Loved the video!
I looooove your vlogs! Gigi is such a DOLL!! What an adorable little girl you have
so cute!
you are such an awesome mom.
I LOVE Vitacost! great stuff!
my vita gets used at least 2x a day, poor thing gets “rinsed” and generally one big clean a week.
I need to go to costco more… I go through at least one, sometimes two of those spinach boxes in a week also. my dachshund Basil eats spinach leaves while I make my smoothies 
So sorry to hear about Gpa. I will pray for all of you. I think that is the best thing to do when things are not going well, is to cuddle with your children. I remember before I had children, I would hold and talk to my cat.
Is it wrong that I want to BE you when I grow up?! Your family is too adorable, and I fully concur that Pea Daddy has a sexy voice!
LOL “we could live in the grocery store, and then everyone would have to come to our house to buy their food” Gigi is TOO cute! if i ever pop one out, she’d better be as cute as yours.
You are TOO beautiful!! Stop it! The rest of us mortal bloggers can’t all have Hollywood-standards vlogs.
Gigi sure is a smart cookie! You have so much to be proud of and happy about: smart, healthy kids who like to eat their spinach (!!), GREAT hair, Vita-Mix (jealous), and a husband with a deep, sexy voice.
Oh Mara. You have no idea how happy this comment made me. I love you. Whatever you are selling, I’ll buy it.
Just wanted you to know that you and your family is in my prayers!
And you should vlog more often!
How cute! Gigi was absolutely adorable in the vlog!
I have to say … I’m sure my jaw dropped a foot or so when I saw how much time you needed to blend that smoothie. It took no time at all! I own 2 blenders and they both take forever to blend anything smooth …
Sounds like someone needs a Vita-Mix…
ok no time to watch the video at the moment but ill probably be thinking about it until i get the chance to
but i did want to drop by and say that ur family is in my prayers tonite and i hope everything is going ok
mama pea you are beautiful and gigi is beautiful as well. Cute vlog! I hope your family is hanging tough. You’re in my thoughts and prayers.
Just reading this tonight and regardless of whether I’m too late for the contest, when I need to cheer up from my day, I READ YOUR BLOG. No joking, no brown-nosing. It’s what I’m doing right now after the 5th straight day of value-formula clauses and intentionall defective grantor trusts, not to mention facing the generation skipping transfer tax tomorrow morning. But tomorrow night I’ll peek on my sleeping boys’ faces at home to cheer me up.
And most importantly, I hope your grandpa is recovering well.
You have such a beautiful family! I thought about you last night, strangely, when my friend told me he was taking me out for the “best veggie burger of my life” and I found myself at The Farm, which I remembered from your blog. I omitted that from dinner conversation though.
This is my second day in Portland and I just discovered a New Seasons a couple blocks away from my house. I think I killed a good two hours there, just staring at all the different varieties of peanut butter… This city is amazing.
Don’t you love it here? I feel so blessed to live in such an amazing place.
Pea Daddy speaks! That must have been an awesome shake indeed.
Thoughts with you and your grandpa.
Loved this video blog!! Gigi is adorable and how hilarious is it that she said you should live at the grocery store?! LOL
Great vlog!! If you ever need a babysitter, I would gladly come over and make smoothies with Gigi:)
I love your vlogs!!! It’s so much fun to see you and Gigi “come to life.” You are both beautiful and I love how you get your kiddos involved in everything. I’m in the mood for a smoothie now!
SO happy that you now have a Vita-Mix!
kyle and i just watched the vlog and just about died of cuteness.
your whole fam has been in our prayers, and im glad that things are better now
those kardashians can be so helpful…
