Hi!
These newsletters are supposed to be done before the weekend. That way, I can close my laptop and spend time with family.
But here we are on Saturday again?
Guess I’ll should stop trying to think of something profound to say up here and just share this week’s news.
Okay! Here we go!
As always, thank you for subscribing!
Much love,
Lenny and Shalva
P.S. Our son crawls now. Wow.
1. Ten Vitamix HACKS in 90 Seconds!
We wanted to make this video perfect. I’m so glad it’s not.
The title graphic for Vitamix hack number (at 0:22) is missing from the final cut. Can you guess what we originally called it?

2. Smoothie bowls two ways
In our smoothie bowl guide, I said that sectioning toppings looks better “sprinkling” them. But now I’m having second thoughts.
Both used a Carolyne’s base. Who wore it better?
3. Popular on Our Instagram This Week
In case you’re not following us on our Instagram or don’t use the service, here’s a post from Shalva that’s getting a lot of love.
“I love how my husband captures these small moments. There’s camera smiles and then there’s pure joy/pride smiles. I genuinely think motherhood somehow makes women more beautiful (even though I had to change clothes THREE times today due to this stinker’s bodily fluids). ???”

Dear Shalva and Lenny.
I’m new to your website through your YouTube channel I found yesterday, July 30, 2018.
First, congratulations with your son. You are such a beautiful family. Bless you all!
Second, THANK YOU SO MUCH for all you do.
You have made me not afraid to start using my Vitamix Pro 750 again, LOL. I have had it for several years and have only used it less than 10 times. YUP, you read that correctly.
I didn’t want to have the container get all yucky and cloudy as I had seen it on other people’s videos after I purchased my Vitamix. I was thinking of returning it back then. $600.00 plus dollars for a container that would end up yucky, scratched and cloudy. NOPE! I’d already had that happen with non-glass blender containers in the past. But… I held onto the Vitamix. Just stopped using it. Then I came across your videos on how to clean the Vitamix regularly and deep cleaning too. I’m feeling like a new woman. And the hubby is gonna be a new man, LOL.
I’m going to be purchasing some more things from Vitamix soon and will do so through your site. I’m also referring your site and YouTube channel to others.
Again, bless you three and all your loved ones.
Oh, and… I love your videos. What some may consider “chattyness” I find wisdom. I’m learning so much from everything you share and mostly from whom you both are as awesome people!!!
Ciao for now,
D.
