Smoothy

	Fruit and or vegetables blended with ice and honey (optional) and vodka (optional) have become my favorite drinks.   This one is pineapple, peaches, banana, lime, ice and tequila. Unlike in a juicer, no pulp is thrown away.   Smoothies gained popularity in the 1940's with the advent of the blender. Smoothies are becoming popular at some local restaurants.

Nights are going to warm up some, overnight low 81F at times

Had my air conditioners serviced yesterday.   From the looks of things it may be a longer than usual hot season.   It started a bit earlier than usual.   There wasn't much of a cold season this year.   A local baker noticed that he had little problem with the yeast rising   this cold season. Previous years had been problematic  My 12 year old refrigerator was heating up the kitchen quite noticeable. A 17,000  Baht replacement arrived after the air con cleaning crew departed. A delivery truck and a separate vehicle of  helpers, unpacked and positioned the new fridge. Of course I've had a number of offers to haul the old fridge away for me.  I'll be moving it to my guest cottage.
