Chocolate Milkshake / Giveaway

May 6, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 29 Comments

Hello and Happy Monday!

I thought today we would kick off the first Monday of May to be all about fitness and health!!  Sound boring?  It won’t be, I promise!  There is even a giveaway, dorky pictures of me and today’s Monday smoothie, which is so rich and chocolaty, you wouldn’t even know it’s healthy!!  It’s a win, win Monday!!!  So let’s get things rolling with today’s recipe!!  This is my Chocolate Protein Milkshake!

Chocolate Protein Milk Shake

I get asked a lot and I mean a lot, if I can make chocolate drinks.  I do, but I’m asked for more chocolate!  So I came up with this simple concoction of greek yogurt, chocolate protein powder, milk and cocoa powder.  This my friends is pure chocolate bliss!!  It’s thick, creamy and you don’t even notice there is protein powder in it!  I love that!!!  Plus what I love more is that it is healthy for you and makes a great post workout smoothie!  Yes chocolate after a workout is so good for you!  Great for the bones, muscle recovery and heck, it’s great just drinking it, for no other reason then it tastes darn good!!

Now for the torture!  I thought I would create a fun, quick, not boring 25 minute workout.  When I was in Monterey last month, I did this workout in my hotel room.  It’s great because you don’t need any equipment and you’re getting a full body workout.  Plus it goes fast and I’m all about getting it done quick!!  I find the exercises are pretty easy, except for the burpees and when your done you feel great, plus I burned about 200 calories doing it!  Be sure to warm up before hand and stretch afterwards.  Oh and feel free to repeat the circuit or some of the exercises.  No rules!  It’s just all about having fun and getting fit!  Once your done, pat yourself on the back and go have the Chocolate Protein Milkshake!  🙂

No Equipment needed Workout

Now time for dorky pictures of me.  These pictures make me realize that I am so happy I have a hair appointment tomorrow!  Ugh, my roots are showing, plain nasty!!  Plus I need some serious color!  lol  Anyway, why am I showing you pictures of me?  Because I got a new workout tank top that I just LOVE!!!!

Albion Fit

Talk about  a dork!  Anyway, I got this new Uline Tank top from Albion Fit and it’s so pretty.  I just love the style of it and especially the round neckline.  It doesn’t even look like a workout tank top to me.  I feel I could almost wear it with a black pencil skirt.  The fabric is also thick and very well made.  Here is the backside.  Don’t mind my tan marks.

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?

I’m still working in my dining room and I wanted to share my new reversible sign that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s a beautiful 24x9 sign that I thought it would be perfect in my dining room.

Happy Thursday! Last week I cleaned my bedroom and Happy Thursday! Last week I cleaned my bedroom and boy does it feel so nice to have a clean room.
💕
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.

My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.
🐾
The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals. 
🐾
I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

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.

My beautiful “Summer” cutout sign is from @krumpetshomedecor and it’s also the deal of the week. You get an extra 10% off with code: PBANDP. Link is in my bio.

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.

Do you have any summer vacation scheduled this year?

🌻
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.
