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!

Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterd Happy Tuesday! I was outside early evening yesterday taking pictures of flowers and I felt a shadow flying around me. I looked up and there a Monarch butterfly. 
🦋
I don’t see Monarchs very much, I was delighted when I saw this orange beauty flying around. It landed on a Zinnia before it took a rest on my Butterfly Bush. Isn’t it beautiful? It made my day. It’s the small things.
🦋
I highly recommend a Butterfly Bush in your garden. The flowers come in a range of colors from white, pink to purples. They do well in zones 5-9. The flowers smell amazing and bloom all season. They are also a great butterfly attractor and fairly easy to grow.
🦋
Do you get butterflies in your garden?

One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors.

I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.

I’m sharing with you my last photo of my peonies. I’m so sad that they didn’t last. I got about 6 days from them. I guess that’s means I need to go to Trader Joe’s and get more before peony season is over.

This weekend I finally made it to the Farmers Market and I picked up these amazing sunflowers. They are such a happy flower. 
🌻
When I got them, I couldn’t resist doing a flowers in the sink photo. I haven’t done one of these since Fall. Now I may have to go back to the Farmers Market next weekend because they had so many flowers and most were only $4.00 a bundle.
