Lemon Blueberry Power Balls

These were the last things I made with my food processor before it bit the dust. I am so sad. But hey, we've had it just over 10 years and it has worked very hard. It is used a couple times a week. Sometimes a couple times a day. I am actually surprised it has lasted as long as it did. If Kitchenaid wants to give me a new one, I would love that. Until then....I have my little handheld one...(insert sad face.)

I made these ones because for my birthday, my sister gave me a bunch of different dried fruits that she knew I would never buy myself. She is so kind and thoughtful. I am really excited about these because they are so good. They are a fresh taste but just as filling and filled with fat and protein as any other power ball I've made. And like all other power balls I make, they are quick and easy to make. Hooray!

I don't have much else to say, other than that I made a big fort for my son and he is watching Disney's Robin Hood. The other is about to unplug the computer any minute. (He is a Tasmanian Devil...) So I am going to wrap this up before I loose it.
