5 Good Things – September 2nd, 2017

September 2, 2017 by: Lenny Gale

Sorry for Staring at your Milk, Perfect Bloody Marys, Green Bean Casserole, Roasted Red Pepper Hummus, and More!

Hi! Here’s what’s new, exciting, and thought provoking from our Life is NOYOKE world.

(This is the online version of our weekly email newsletter, 5 Good Things. To get it delivered to your inbox on Saturdays, you can subscribe right here.)

1. New blog posts, site updates, and other things we’re proud to be sharing

Good morning from Minneapolis!

Quick little vid for ya: Sorry for staring at your milk.

Okay, onto the recipes!

2. New recipes we’re enjoying

Homemade bloody mary mix. Get after it, football fans.

Homemade bloody mary mix with celery.

+ Green bean casserole. Yup. We brought it to dinner last night and it was well received. Nothing left but an empty pan!

3. Classic recipes we’re re-showcasing

Roasted red pepper hummus. Simple and delish.

4. Vitamix news and updates we’re enjoying

Still, through 9/10/17, save $70 on Ascent Series and $120 on the CR Pro 750 and CR 780. More details in our Labor Day Sale post.

+ So the 48-ounce, narrow-bodied containers for Ascent were supposed to be released yesterday, but weren’t. Will let you know when we get an update.

+ Here’s the new YouTube vid for those planning to get a Vitamix through us. (Summary: We are silly, but would appreciate your support, so please manually enter our affiliate code in the promotion code box  use a → link to vitamix.com from this site to ensure we get credit.)

5. Articles, posts, and products from around the web we’re thinking about

Animal agriculture is responsible for 18 percent of greenhouse gas emissions, more than the combined exhaust from all transportation (source). So in the wake of the 1,000 – year flood in Houston, I’m gonna just gonna put this here: NASA’s interactive module on Climate Change.

Okay, all for now.

Thanks and good things,
Shalva and Lenny
