Pina-Banana Smoothie

April 29, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 30 Comments

Hello, hello!

Today, I thought I would kick-start the week with my healthy Cinco De Mayo smoothie!!  Ok, I’m not sure if my drink is really considered a Cinco De Mayo drink, maybe more tropical, but still it’s good, it’s fruity and so perfect for a nice sunny day!!

Pina-Banana Smoothie

This drink is sure to put you in a summer mood!  It’s made with pineapple, banana and mango, all blended together in coconut milk.  It’s sweet, healthy and loaded vitamin C and sure enough to put a smile on your face!!  I know it did mine!!

Pina-Banana Smoothie


I just love these kind of drinks, they are more like a dessert then a healthy pick-me up to get you through the rest of your day.  I made this drink after my Saturday Zumba class.  I have to admit I skipped out the past three weeks, and when I went to class, I realized how much I really do like it.  Today’s teacher was a good one too, she explained the moves, where as the last teacher just went into routine and never stopped.  Yes I know I burn more calories just moving and not stopping, but I do want to figure out how to move right!  I am not the most coordinated person when it comes to any kind of dance, so I need instructions.  I have to laugh, she played Vanilla Ice’s, Ice, Ice Baby in the class and now that silly song is stuck in my head!  Darn that Vanilla Ice.  Such a goofy song, I can’t believe it was a hit!

Pina-Banana Smoothie

I’m happy to bring back Smoothie Monday, it’s been about two weeks.  I was in need of a smoothie!!

I have a question for you…  Every year I like to go somewhere for vacation and I never get any help deciding from my Husband,  so it’s all on me.  I don’t have a heck of a lot of money, but I want to go somewhere, any suggestions of what would be a fun place to go that won’t cost a fortune.  Normally every August we go to Las Vegas, and I love it there!  The weather is hot, the hotels are nice and airfare is pretty cheap, but I tend to spend quite a bit of money playing the slots, Eck…  So this year I am debating about somewhere else.  I thought Mexico, Los Angeles, Clearwater Florida (I have never been there and airfare and hotels, cost the same as Vegas, but the weather maybe to humid in August) or San Diego.  My dream though is Hawaii, but that is a little bit out of my pocket book, so if you have any suggestions, please let me know!

Have a wonderful week!

Toodles,

Jennifer

    Well since I live in San Diego, I’ll tell you to come here! It’s wonderful here but it’s not Cabo or Hawaii 🙂 It has it’s own special vibe of course!

    This drink you made would be perfect on ANY beach. Loving it!

      I have been really thinking San Diego. I want to go to Coronado Island. It looks so pretty and I want to stay in the Coronado Hotel, even for one night. Then head to SD to go to Sea World. 🙂

    I love this tropical treat! Definitely perfect for a post-zumba snack!

    We went to Miami last year in August and it was quite humid. Some days were better than others and it actually wasn’t SO bad if you made sure to dip into the water every few hours but then again we are kind of used to the humidity since it’s pretty humid in NYC also!

    My husband would love this smoothie! Not me though because of the coconut.

    A great place to go would be Jamaica. They also have all inclusives so it makes it very affordable. You can usually find a deal with airfare and everything else included 🙂

    Florida is definitely humid in the summer months. I’m slightly biased bc I love Southern California, but San Diego is awesome! A good mix of things to do and see, good restaurants and beaches!

    I just found this recipe , very good, would be better with coconut rum in it! Still looking for a vaca ? about 20 years ago we discovered the US Virgin Islands and have been back many times , we are semi-retired so the past few years we have been able to go for a winter month, staying for a month. The weather is much nicer there in the summer than here in the mid-west and absolutely fabulous in the winter ! our friends who go to Fl had terrible weather this past winter. Summer is the off season and rates are much less, plus , no cruise ship people to deal with!! t-shirts, shorts & flip flops are worn everywhere !! I go to this web cam every day ! http://www.sapphireinthesun.com we rent a condo here , Sapphire beach , on VRBO . Kenny Chesney hangs out on St John , just a 20 min ferry ride away , and his latest album is all about the Islands….can you tell I love it ! and I am happy to share any info regards

    Recipe sounds very good, but problem with anything coconut (ALLERGIES). What would be a good substitute?
    Suggestion for vacation: Myrtle Beach, SC.!! As you research Myrtle Beach, look at Ocean Lakes Properties which offers rental beach houses and good amenities!

This weekend I worked on my bar cart and let me tell you that I am loving the orange color and all the carrots and bunnies. So much fun!! 
🥕
In the bowl on the tiered tray you see wooden carrots, those are from @krumpetshomedecor. They are so cute!! My dogs seem to be obsessed with them when I hung them on my cart, so I had to hide them. I’ll share them in stories today.

Happy Monday! I did a little bit of Spring cleanin Happy Monday! I did a little bit of Spring cleaning this weekend. I wanted to give my kitchen counters the less is more look.
🫧
I did have a very hard time taking my sink tray off the counter. I’ve had the tray there for years, so I thought I would change it up. Don’t be surprised if the sink tray makes its way back. 😂 I may add some herbs to my window sill for some fresh green color.
🫧
I used @cloth.bristle to clean my kitchen counters and sink. I love cleaning my sink with it. It makes it so sparkly and smells good too! Love that it’s all natural. 
🫧
The beautiful spring tea towel is from my friend Alicia from @theblessedpeach.

The tray and canister is Targets Hearth and Hand. The marble paper towel holder is Target Threshold. The soap is Trader Joe’s!

Hope I inspire you to do a little spring cleaning!! Have a great Monday!

Happy Friday! Our next winter storm is here! It is Happy Friday! Our next winter storm is here! It is just awful out there. Heavy rain, high winds and hail. This is not a winter that we are used to in California. 
🥕
My husband and I are not fancy when it comes to eating dinner. Since it’s just the two of us, we never use the dining room table, but always eat at the kitchen counter.
🥕
There is no reason why we can’t eat fancy at the kitchen counter. I am using my new placemats that I got from @vmathome. They are thick, water, stain resistant and can handle heat up to 350F degrees. I love the color and style of the placemats. They have a wide variety of styles and colors, along with matching table runners.
🥕
I styled my table with bright spring colors that I was inspired by carrots. I still have bunnies on the brain. lol I had fun with this place setting, it’s so nice to have dinner with a little style then having it on a plain plate and paper napkins.
🥕
Have a wonderful weekend!!

I’m sharing with you my media table all decked out for Easter. I just love decorating for spring and Easter. Something about pulling out the bunnies that makes me smile.

I am loving my Wanted Bunny sign that I got from @12timbers. I love that it’s a neutral color that will go with any style and color. The sign comes in three sizes, and you can choose the coloring of the background and design color.
🐰
The Jute Tree with the Eggs and the Wooden Bunnies are also from 12 Timbers. The Jute Tree is so much fun to add to your decor. I love the colors of the felt eggs.

So much fun to add anywhere in your home.

Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Sprin Happy March 1st! Everyday is a day closer to Spring. I looked back last year at this time and my garden was starting to flourish. Boy you should see it now. It’s a big muddy mess. With all the rain and high winds we sure have a huge mess to clean. I can’t wait until we get some warm days. 
🐰
I’m sharing with you one of my favorite vignettes that I created last year. I may have a slight obsession with bunnies. Every year I say no more buying bunnies, but then I end up with a few more in my collection. Lol

Happy Monday!! Hope you had a nice weekend! I’ll Happy Monday!! Hope you had a nice weekend! I’ll be honest, I great intentions on decorating my house this weekend, but with the rain and cold, I got pretty lazy. I had packages that were supposed to arrive last week, but with the winter storms here on the west coast, my packages seem to be stuck in Nevada. This weather is so crazy!
🌸
Here is my little corner of my living room with a little pop of spring. Sorry about the lighting. With this weather, photographing is not easy.
🌸
I added a pillow that I got from Target and a white blanket I already had on hand. I of course had to add some bunnies. The wooden bunny with the flowers is from my friend Abby @ittybittycottage.

Happy Wednesday! We are getting such crazy weather Happy Wednesday! We are getting such crazy weather. We are having extreme winds again and boy is it cold out. It’s only in the 30’s right now and tomorrows high is in the 40’s. Normally by now I am planting seeds in the ground and prepping for Spring gardening. I don’t see that happening anytime soon. Where’s the California Spring weather?
🐰
Since we don’t have Spring outside, I thought I would bring Spring in the house. I bought my first fresh bouquet of tulips. Aren’t they pretty? This makes me so happy. Plus I couldn’t resist bringing the bunnies out. They seemed to have multiplied since last Spring. lol
🐰
This Spring vignette was inspired by the beautiful welcome sign from @krumpetshomedecor. I love the bead handle and the cute little bunny on it. The sign is reversible, swipe to see other side. So you can use it all year. It would be beautiful in an entry, guest bedroom and on your front porch.

I added a little of Spring decor to my bench in my living room. I will probably change this spot up once I pull my spring decor out, but for now I like it.
💗
It’s crazy how big this space looks in video, when it’s quite small. I call this my runway zone because the dogs run through this space like maniacs. So I have to keep it light with no breakables.

The two large pillows are from Target and the little bunny pillow is from the Target Dollar Spot. The throw is from Pier1 when they had a storefront. The sign on the wall is from Krumpets Home Decor.

I have gotten so many questions lately about the runner in my kitchen that I thought I would share with you a close up and some information about it. This is not a collaboration. 
🐾
The vinyl runners are from @vmathome. They are so easy to clean, pet friendly, anti-slip, and durable. I love these vinyl runners in the kitchen and hallway. If the dogs get dirt or water on them, I just clean it up with a paper towel. They have been a life saver having them with two young dogs.
🐾
The vinyl mat on the first picture is the Dandelion Vinyl Mat. If you swipe the photo you will see the vinyl mat that used last year in my kitchen which is the Charlotte Vinyl Mat. If you sign up for emails, you will get discount codes.
🐾
These two pictures are a year apart. Look how much my baby Sully has grown. 🥹
🐾
Have the best day!
