Pumpkin Smoothie

September 24, 2012 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 46 Comments

HI Everyone,

How was your weekend?  Mine was pretty good!  However being that it is now Sunday, I am exhausted.  I kind of had a lazy Sunday!!  I planned on baking and doing lots of things on my Sunday but I really didn’t do too much once the afternoon hit.  Basically it was doing laundry, cleaning out the fridge and prepping my meals for the week.  Now I am just chilling out and writing my blog.

This morning, even though I was feeling lazy, I did managed to get in 30 minutes of cardio.  It felt great afterwards.  For breakfast I wasn’t feeling like making anything to much and I was really thirsty, so I whipped together this wonderful, creamy pumpkin smoothie.

I made this smoothie with pumpkin, greek yogurt, a frozen banana, fat-free milk, pumpkin pie spice and maple syrup.  It came together nicely.  It’s creamy, light, sweet and tastes just like pumpkin.  I loved it so much I’m making it for breakfast to take to work tomorrow.  It’s only 156 calories, 4 grams of fiber and almost 15 grams of protein.  It kept me filled up for a few hours!


I did do a little grocery shopping at Trader Joe’s this morning to pick up some odds and ends and to start my week off eating healthy!  I took a pledge that next month I will try to stay away from processed foods.  That’s going to be tough, but I can do it!!  Here’s what I bought at TJ’s.  There’s a few new items hidden in there  Can you find them?

Did you spot them?   Well my Friends I have some good news for you!  It’s back….

So happy it’s back!!  I was shocked not to see it on their new item shelf, even though it’s not really a new item.  But when I was going down the aisle there it was, calling me to buy it!!  So I did!!

Speaking of squash, the lady at Trader Joe’s saw that I was buying a butternut squash and she told me you can eat the skin.  She said Jamie Oliver said he does it.  So I googled it, and guess what?  He does!  So I thought I would give it a try!

Sure enough it worked and it was pretty darn tasty.  The skin is not tough, maybe a little chewy, but it’s not bad at all!!  I will be doing this for now on.  It beats peeling the squash.  The texture kind of reminds me of an apple.  To make this squash, I cut the top and the bottom, placed the squash upright and cut down the middle.  With a spoon I took out the seeds and stringy stuff.  I sliced it into pieces.  Placed on a parchment lined baking sheet and added 2 tbsp. olive oil, a sprinkle of salt, pepper, cinnamon and cayenne pepper.  Roasted it in a 400 degree oven for about 30 minutes, flipping half way through.   Cook until fork tender.  It was pretty easy!  You should try it!!

I bought the new Food Network October magazine and I found this chart, which I thought was pretty nice.  I took a picture of it so I can share it with you!

Pretty handy little chart!!  I didn’t know there was that many kinds of squash!

    Eeeeee so excited that pumpkin is back on the shelves! Loved your Trader Joe’s loot. I never considered leaving the skin on but now that I know it’s possible I’ll be saving some serious time and arm soreness 🙂

      I never thought of leaving the skin on either but it’s not bad!! A little chewy, but good!! I hate peeling the skin, I think that is why I don’t cook it as much, but not anymore.

    This recipe looks delicious! I can’t wait to try it.

    I am jealous that your Trader Joe’s already has canned pumpkin and pumpkin butter. The store near me does not have them yet, and they were out of the Greek pumpkin yogurt. I did get pumpkin coffee, granola and pumpkin soup, though! The cashier said they should get in pumpkin cereal bars soon, which are new.

    Great smoothie idea – we are gearing up to start enjoying some pumpkin dishes, so I will definitely be adding this to the list of breakfast treats!

    Also, like the photo, I can tell you used some of the tips from the workshop on Saturday. Keep shooting.

      What I did once, is freeze it at night n a ziplock freezer bag and in the morning I put it in the fridge. After about 4 hours, it was soft enough to mash up with my fist! Then pour it in a glass and enjoy!!

    Hi Jenn, Loved your blog. I must admit it was the picture of the pumpkin smoothie that drew me in, I can’t wait to try it. Just had to share this with you. Try baking your butternut or acorn squash and maybe even pumpkin whole in the oven 350* 70 min for avg sized, until you can insert a knife easily into the flesh, THEN cut open and remove seeds and stringy stuff. and spoon out the squash easily. Just let it sit ~ 20 min to cool before handling. Such a breeze, I’ll never peel or cut up hard squash again. I can’t believe how well this works.Try it. 😉

    I am really intrigued by the recipe. Will try.

Happy Thursday! I am a day ahead of myself this w Happy Thursday!  I am a day ahead of myself this week. I thought yesterday was Thursday and I was excited because I thought today was Friday. I knew what day of the week it was, but my brain didn’t get it. Does that ever happen to you?

I’m sharing with you my new dog bone container that I got from @outshine_co. Oh my gosh Sampson loves it! Mom, move out of the way, I’m taking over!!
🐶
Hi all! This is Sammy here! I just have to tell you my Mom now has no excuse not to have bones in the house anymore. This beautiful container hold 5 boxes of my favorite Trader Joe’s bones. My Mom also needs to know that carrots, celery or a piece of lettuce doesn’t cut it! Bones is what I must have!
🐶
The container is made of a nice heavy coated carbon steel and holds 12lbs or 54 cups of dog food and bones. 🤩Yes thank you! That is what I’m taking about. The only thing is, the lid is so well fitted and airtight that I can’t get my paws in it. What’s up with that? Not fair! I need access to bones at all times.
🐶
My Mom loves the container too because it looks pretty on her counter and even comes with a sticker that she can write my name on. I absolutely love this container! Thank you Outshine Co. for sending this to me, I mean my Mom.
🐶
Thank your for letting me take over! I miss and love you guys!  Love Sampson!

Happy Wednesday! Half way through the week. I’m Happy Wednesday!  Half way through the week. I’m sharing with you, possibly my last look of my living room in it’s winter decor. I am so ready to add some color.
🪴
Depending on what is going on this weekend, I hoping to go to Homegoods for maybe a new blanket and some pillows. The only thing what color? I’m almost gravitating towards pink?
🪴
Though, yellow may look nice with the green plants. However, I do have so many pillows. Maybe I should look for pillow covers? Less storage. Pillows take up so much room. Oh the decisions.
🪴
I’ve seen some of you share pillow covers from Hobby Lobby. I’ve never seen them at my store, but I’ll do a search when I’m there? I guess that means I’m hitting up Hobby Lobby too. 😂
🪴
Instead of my daily question, I just want to wish and hope everyone is safe with this crazy weather.

🐰
Now that Valentines is over, it’s officially time for spring, at least in my mind. The weather may say otherwise, but I’ve been craving spring colors in my home. I went pretty neutral in my living room for winter, but I think I’m going to add some pastels. Now what color to add?
🐰
Last year if you followed me, I spent months trying to decide on what color to use. Ugh, I think I’m in the same boat again this year. I like yellows because it’s a happy color, but I also like pinks and blues. Oh the decisions.
🐰
I haven’t seem to much inspiration in the stores, though Target seems to have yellows and corals, plus a lot of neutrals. I’m seeing a lot of boho and woods. I do like woods with greenery.
🐰
What color doing you like to use in your home for Spring?

Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bi Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bit of rough day in my house. Woke up to see my sweet Sampson wasn’t feeling well.  He was just laying around, didn’t get up to greet me, and the biggest sign was he didn’t ask for a bone. You know how he’s obsessed with bones.
🐶
Around 9am he perked up and asked for a bone and wanted to go outside to snoop around. He seems to be better, but is still kind of laying around. I just hope he will be okay. He’s 11, and I get so worried. He’s my child.
🐶
I’m sharing with you my pretty tulips from Trader Joe’s. They have such a great selection of tulips in array of colors. Though I didn’t see any roses, which is strange. We do not have any plans for the weekend, that I know of, but we have the tendency to wing it.  I’ll keep you posted. Hope you have a wonderful Valentines weekend!

Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most likely be heading to Trader Joe’s and I have to get my husband a Valentines gift. I would get him his favorite, chocolate, but he bought himself a ton of chocolate last weekend, so I’ll have to think of something else. Maybe he’ll like flowers from Trader Joe’s? Lol
🌸
Speaking of flowers, check out my new, gorgeous marble and wood cutting board that I got from my friend Brantley from @thesassyoak. I love the engraved flowers in it. It is so pretty.
🌸
The cutting board is her newest item at her Etsy shop. She engraves different items, like your name, but for me it is flowers. I’ll always keep the cutting board displayed. I think it is far to pretty to use. I’m afraid someone would scratch it.
🌸
Do you use cutting boards or just use them as display?

That means I get to go shopping for some new pieces to add to the bathroom. I am on the search for is some new open shelves to go above the toilet. If you have any suggestions on where to get some, let me know.
❤️
I wasn’t going to, but I decided to do a small Valentines table setting. I couldn’t resist the small white plates with the little red heart in the middle that I got from @williamssonoma. It was the first thing I bought after my no home decor buying for 30 days.
❤️
I love the simplicity of the table. It’s a small space, so I do not like to go to overboard on the decor. I added a little gift of candy hearts to bring together the reds and of course to eat.
❤️
Do you have any special plans for Valentines Day?

Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday! This weekend I clea Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday! This weekend I cleaned my kitchen sink area. It was filling up with daffodils and tulips and my husband said he feels like he’s in a greenhouse. I said they are bulbs, they won’t be there forever. Well they did poop out so I cleaned up my area to make more room for new plants.
🤣
You know when you take a photo and you realize something is in the wrong spot, so you fix it and take a photo again? Or maybe you see a crumb, a dog hair tumbleweed and you have to clean up and take a photo again. We’ll here’s my story.
😂
I took a photo of the kitchen sink area and I saw in the photo a smear mark on the dishwasher. So I cleaned the dishwasher. Then I took a photo again and I saw that smear mark again. So I scrubbed the dishwasher and ended up up cleaning all of my cabinets.
😂
I took the photo again and I saw that smear looking mark in my photo. What the heck? I examined the dishwasher and I’m thinking it’s so clean and smooth. I don’t get what that smear mark is. It was driving me crazy!!
🤣
Then it hit me. It was the reflection of the dog food dish in the dishwasher. Sigh.... All that scrubbing and I could have just moved the bowl. Well now I have a clean dishwasher and cabinets.
🤦‍♀️
Has this ever happened to you?

I did some therapeutic yard work and I planted Pansies, Stock and Ranunculus in the garden. It felt so nice to be outside and to see flowers.

This weekend I finally repotted my Coffee Plant and Dracaena plant. They had roots growing out of the pot. I have no idea how the Dracaena (plant on right) plant survived. The roots were so dry and it was in about a 3” container.  I looked up the plant and it can grow to 10’. Not the care I gave mine. That little plant is about a year old.
🌸
If your looking for a low light, easy to care for plant that takes neglect, get a Dracaena. I’m proof that it can take neglect.
🌸
Basic repotting plant tips
1. Get a pot about 2-4” larger in diameter then the pot your current plant is in. Make sure it has a drainage hole at the bottom.
2. Use indoor potting soil, preferably organic.
3. Carefully take plant out of current pot, check if the roots are root bound, if so, try to untangle a little bit. Just be gentle.
4. Place plant in new pot with fresh indoor potting soil
5. Give a good watering

Did you watch the Super Bowl? I wasn’t a fan of the game, but I enjoyed some of the commercials. The Cheetos one with Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunas made me laugh. I didn’t care for the Doritos commercial with my man Matthew McConaughey.

Were there any commercials you liked?

It’s finally Friday! Woohoo! I always say to my It’s finally Friday!  Woohoo! I always say to myself, I’m going to sleep in, I never do. I get so excited of all the things I want to do, that I can’t sleep. This weekend I’m hoping to hit the garden store. I really want to plant some Iceland Poppies.

Since Spring is in my head, I created this cute Spring tiered tray. I got all of the gorgeous handcrafted pieces from my friend Brantley @thesassyoak. The workmanship is amazing. They are just happy, cheery pieces.
🌷
The love birds sign is my favorite. It reminds me of my two Blue Jays that frequent my yard. They are my favorite birds next to Woody of course.
🐦
How cute is that sweet little “BLOOM” banner. Eeeee, It makes me want to plant flowers so bad. Crossing fingers that I get too. You have no idea how I just love Spring!
🌷
To get these fabulous pieces and many more, be sure to check out The Sassy Oak. She has a beautiful Etsy shop.
