Creamy, Yummy, Fruit Smoothie

I am normally picky about my smoothies. Mine tend to be strawberry-something, with more strawberries than anything else. But then I though I might try this one. The name of this post pretty much says it all. It is very creamy, and very good. One of the better yogurt-berry smoothies, I think. The yogurt is not over-powering, but you can still taste it a tiny bit, and it blends together very fast. In the cookbook I got it from, it says that this is a good breakfast smoothie. Next time we have friends over for breakfast, I'm making this smoothie. I got it from Kids' Fun and Healthy Cookbook, by Nicola Graimes.

 Everything in the blender, waiting to become a yummy smoothie.

 I thought that different layers of fruit and yogurt were cool looking, so I took a close-up.

The finished thing. I cut the recipe in half because I wasn't sure I would like it, but I'll give you the full recipe. Just FYI, I love the color.
