This blender was freaking expensive - a whopping $649 at Williams Sonoma! I went to WS with the plan to buy the Pro 500 and decided that the quiter motor and the overall aesthetics of the 750 was worth the additional 50 dollars. I figured if I can drop the same amount for an iPad or a pair of Jimmy Choo shoes, I can make the investment in my health. For the last week, I have been making some really tasty drinks: Peach Cobbler Smoothie with Rolled Oats (from the Vitamix recipe book), spinach/strawberry/blueberry and spinach/apple/banana/pineapple smoothies. This morning, I thought i would get serious and make one with broccoli and bell pepper. I forced myself to drink it; the recipe needs work... I look forward to making ice cream, dips and soups with this machine. Perhaps it will make me look like a culinary expert!
