Peach Smoothie Experiment

Dearest Darlings,
Happy First Day of School! (Well, for me. Sierra started yesterday ha ha!)
Today I decided to try a little project trying to find out which ingredients taste best in a peach smoothie! We currently have three bags full of fresh peaches on our counter right now and I am trying to figure out how to eat them all before they go bad!
 First you should know that I had very little supplies and too much imagination... so if you start wondering "Ew! Why would she even try that?!" don't worry, I'm totally thinking the same thing.
So smoothie number one... raspberry and peach. This one was by far the best, and when I say the best, I mean it was the only drink-able one and the only tasty one.
For raspberry-peach I used:
2 1/2 tbs red raspberry preserves
4 small, peeled peaches
1 cup ice
2 tablespoons of milk
Next I tried peanut butter, honey, and peach. Okay, this one wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great either. I think my main mistake could have been that I was afraid to put in a lot of peanut butter, because I didn't want it to be a peanut butter smoothie. In the end my brother told me it just tasted like weird peaches.
Oh well.
This may or may not have been the reaction I got to the peanut butter/peach concoction.

For the third smoothie I learned something very important. Peaches=yummy. Nutella=fan-friggin-tastic. Peach-Nutella smoothie=not so much. That one was a definite no.
