summer and a smoothie.

i love this time of year.

i love long, warm days. i love the countdown until the end of the school year.

i feel like a kid again every school year as i am counting down the days to the last day of school. i have those butterflies of excitement. i can't wait to swim in my uncle's pool. i can't wait to visit the beach. i can't wait to go back to mexico... and i can't wait to sleep in past six!

i am looking forward to my "summer" schedule. no more lesson planning. observations. report cards. and teaching. just a mental break so i can go back to school refreshed and ready to teach new minds at the end of august.

tonight tim and i did our weekly grocery trip... strawberries, chobani yogurt, and bananas were in our cart to make my new favorite... a strawberry banana smoothie! i have been drinking these for dessert at night... it tastes just like a milkshake!

To make this smoothie:

Ingredients
six strawberries
one banana
1/2 cup of low fat plain yogurt
1/2 cup of low fat milk
1 tablespoon of honey
3 tablespoons of pineapple juice (optional)

Blend all these ingredients together with ice and VIOLA!! Makes enough for two... so share with a friend! :)

after grocery shopping, we went around the corner to chipotle... i ended the night with a chicken bowl...

and it tasted as awesome as it looks!

Happy Wednesday!

  1. Toss a tablespoon of Wheat Germ into your smoothie and you will up the nutrients and protein big time.
