Smoooooth

It’s a smoothie kind of day out there!

I’ve already accomplished so much and it’s barely the afternoon!

While Clara had a lazy morning in mind…

I was up and at ’em and ready to go (must’ve been that delicious breakfast!)

Around 10:30 I headed off to the gym and did a quick 3 miles on the treadmill followed by some back stretches…

Then I grabbed my newest book and headed out to the pool for some reading and relaxing…

LOVING this book so far!

Then it was SMOOTHIE TIME!

I simply picked through my sister’s fridge for whatever leftover fruit and yogurt there was and threw it all into the blender with some ice cubes…

To have alongside I toasted up a slice of whole wheat bread and topped it with MaraNatha Sunflower Seed Butter:

A pretty good way to break up the day if you ask me!
Even Clara woke up long enough to come check it out 😉

    Super jealous of your pool day! I’m hoping warmer weather is going to show up again in our forecast soon!

    Sunflower seed butter is by far my favorite. And I have a horrible habit of eating it by the spoonful each time I enter the kitchen…

    I’ve craved a smoothie almost every day this past week or so. When the weather gets warm, they are all I want. I just wish they lasted longer!

    I want to read that book so badly! But I can’t afford it, the library list is tooooo long, and I can’t get my hands on a used copy!! Guess I’ll just wait : )

      It’s SO good so far!! If it were my own copy (it’s my sister’s and she wants to read it next) I would offer to send it to you! I hope you can get your hands on one soon! Have you checked Amazon used books?
