I never knew that my lovely wife had such a sense of humor (well, actually, I did).

Too funny.

Okay for me, the dibatic route is a good one...but really seems like a no brainer, pack shakes in handy shaker...ask for cold water on plane, shake and drink from shaker, thats what I always do....no need for pretty glasses...rinse and ready for next use.

There were several people on my flight with Ensure....probably were diabetics....

not temporary ones...

This teacher wonders how some people ever made it out of high school...

Just kidding. I am just a big geography buff.

Pictures... finally.

I decided to take it upon myself today to take pictures of me making my shake in a bottle. So for all of those asking the question, "How do you pour the shake packet into a bottle without getting the powder all over the place?", here is the answer.... in pictures.... with descriptions.

Step 1:

Carefully tear top of packet about 1/3 of the way across the top.

Step 2:

Insert a finger into the left side of the opening

Step 3:

Carefully fold down the right side of the packet in such a way that the packet (slightly) resembles the state of Nevada (inverted) and your finger has essentially formed a spout hole

Step 4:

This is what the spout should look like

Step 5:

Carefully invert the packet in such a way that the spout gently goes into the top of an open, half full, 16.9 oz bottle of water. Gently tap the packet until all of the powder is in the bottle. Discard packet.

Step 6:

Replace cap on bottle and shake. Voila.... your RTD is done.

I hope this helps all.

Mike...Where is the ICE????

No ice here.... this is just how to make a shake when you are out and about and all you have is a bottle of water.

To blend it with ice... you kinda need a blender...

I'm with you, KM -- ice really helps with the clumps!! But in those I've-got-a-packet-but-no-shaker-jar moments, this Inverted Nevada method works well. Mike thought it was too much work when I showed him, but had to admit after trying it that it really is easier and less messy than what he was trying to do.

So, there you have it! Serendipity in action! (Thanks, honey, for taking and posting the pics.)
