I participated in a function with the 3aday.org awhile back and since received the very AMAZINGLY COOL AND AWESOME opportunity to write an article for their website. Seriously. Someone asked me to write for them. You have no idea how honored I was. Especially because they wanted me to write about food. Seriously? Like I don’t do that every day anyway.
Here is my article. I am so incredibly proud to have my name on a real article I almost cried when I read it. I hope you’ll stop over and read it and maybe even try out some of the awesome smoothie recipes I discovered.
My kids really liked this assignment as well. Can you tell?
Congrats on the publication! I’d be thrilled. And smoothies are ALWAYS a hit, aren’t they?
Congratulations!!!
Congrats on being published!!
I need some smoothie recipes. Something where you can sneak in the goodies that make kids grow big without them knowing it’s good for them.
Actually, this is your article:

The link in the post goes to a past post. Congratulations on the article!
Congrats on the article! You even more interwebby famous now
And hey - that website has some great ideas, so thanks for that, too! We started makin smoothies about 2 months ago when Girl! just stopped eating. She’d drink anything, but wouldn’t eat, so I started comming up with some ideas to get nutrition in her without making a big deal over it. almsot 3 months later and we still ahve smoothies at least twice a week, sometimes more.
Very nice! Loved the article.
I’m so proud of you! Thanks for helping the dairy farmers of the world promote their delicious, nutritious milk. (Yes, I’m a dork and Dairy Council employee.)
Congratulations Zoot! I remember one time I had an article published about WAH moms when I just had started out and only typed for a few local students from a college. It was thrilling to see that online article!!! that’s the only one I ever did and I should try again….
I’m SO proud, girl! Excellent!! xoxo
GREAT article! I love the 3 a day website’s recipes. I have a dumb question-in that strawberry yogurt smoothie, it calls for strawberry low-calorie drink mix-is that like sugar-free koolaid powder? Or Carnation instant breakfast?
Woohoo!
It’s funny–the writing is definitely “you” but it’s toned down or neat and shiny or something. Hmm. That makes it sound like you’re a loud crazywoman or messy and dull in your blog. I donno. I guess it’s more classic essay than your blog posts. It’s neat to read other styles of writing by you.
Congrats on the article!
That is a GREAT article. Nice job!!
My housemate does the same thing with incorporating the colors into the food dishes…
Hey you did a great job on the article! I really liked it
I think I’d like to try LiLZ’s smoothie the most.
yay! so proud of you! also? it’s weird to see your real name. like, don’t the people at 3aday.com know you are zoot….like madonna or cher or rhianna?
YAY! good article!
i have REALLY been craving smoothies lately. i’m going to have to try one or two of those recipes. mmm.
Yay! So happy for you! It’s a great article.
Cheers to many more Zoot articles! Woot!
Congratulations on the article! You rock.
I would really like to try the quesadillas and the Frosty Pine-Orange Yogurt Smoothie.
The Berry Blast Smoothie sounds good too. I’m allergic to strawberries, so I didn’t look at the recipe immediately. Where did you find almond butter?
That is awesome! I have recently discovered smoothies and they’re not really that hard to make. Hmm, maybe I’ll have one for breakfast now that I think about it. It’s so exciting that your article is there. It looks great!
Congratulations! This is a great article - you really took your own voice and incorporated it well into that other kind of writing format.
Have a nice morning
Congrats on the article! I love smoothies.
That’s a really nice article. Congrats on being published! Your menu soumd much more colorful than the Swanson dinners I’ve had of late.
I like the title “No More Mellow Yellow”
You’re such a good writer … you should pitch some ideas to magazines and get paid! I loved this one.
You are a total rock star! Scout loves smoothies too!
That’s awesome! Congrats!!!
Hey, nice piece - breezed right through and enjoyed it, thoroughly - it took me a while to figure out that the woman pictured was NOT you, though. DUH.
Great article! I think it’s very cool that your teenage son motivated you to choose a wider variety of food colors.
