Good afternoon from Minneapolis!

Hope you had a nice week. 🙂

Here’s what’s new, exciting, and thought-provoking from the Life is NOYOKE world.

1. Newly posted articles we’re sharing

This week, I thought it would be a good idea to write 4,500 words about making nut butters.

2. New YouTube video we’re enjoying

This week we published my favorite video (so far) in the Kids Videos for Toddlers Series we’re doing.

Watch: GREEN JUICE! – Blending Buddies! (kids video for toddlers)

Wait! Don’t skip past this video. I think it will make you smile. Watch it now

3. Classic recipes we’re re-showcasing

This week, we made detox salad. It had been way too long!

+ We also made a bunch of acai bowls. Such a great way to start the day as a family.

+ Shalva made these lovely southwest salads with a side of our easy cilantro lime mango dressing.

4. Vitamix recommendations those considering

We updated our Vitamix model comparison guide this week.

5. Links to things we’re thinking about

Few things get the privilege of living on our counter. This chef’s knife by Mac Knife (amazon affiliate link) is one of them. It’s helpful for anyone who has ever felt frustrated with their knives. We have other knives, but this is the only one we ever use. (It also works well for playing jokes on someone who leaves you to watch the baby and may use the baby monitor app to spy on you.)

If you do happen to get this knife for yourself (or add it to your wishlist), pair it with this sharpener. Almost as important as a good knife.
