First, breakfast! 😀
Despite the cooler weather, I was in the mood for a nice, cold smoothie this morning. I figured it’ll start to get a little too chilly for smoothies soon, so I should take advantage of the temperate weather and enjoy ’em while I still can.
I made myself a chocolate peanut butter cup green monster smoothie by combining the following:
- 1 frozen banana
- 2 large handfuls spinach
- 4 ice cubes
- 3/4 c. cold water
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
- 1.5 tbsp. peanut butter
The best part about this smoothie?
It matched my pants!
In the above picture they don’t look that matchy-matchy, but I blame the sunlight because in real life they were almost dead on!
Here are some other green monster smoothie recipes for ya in case you’re interested:

Now onto the oh-so-serious debate…
The other day I was talking with one of my coworkers about the gorgeous flowers she had at her desk.
Our conversation then turned into a debate about what women prefer to have sent to them from their significant other.
Chocolate?
Or flowers?
My answer was flowers. I can buy myself chocolate, but I’d feel totally goofy sending myself flowers at work. Plus, flowers last longer than a box of chocolate around me. 😉
I’ll never forget the time Ryan sent me a cookie bouquet at work. The bouquet was comprised of five large cookies which became my breakfast, morning snack, lunch and afternoon snack that day. Turns out me and a cookie bouquet are a deadly combination.
Question of the Morning
Would you rather receive flowers or chocolate from a loved one?
