PEANUT BUTTER + BANANA GREEN PROTEIN SHAKE

April 6, 2016 by Amanda R DeWitt

When you take my favorite food in the world [ peanut butter ], combine it with a sweet, ripe banana and a handful of greens (you know, to make it semi-healthy and give it a pretty color), you have yourself a tasty breakfast, snack or post workout shake. Allow me to introduce you to the Peanut Butter Banana Green Protein Shake aka my new favorite drink.

A Peanut-Butter-Chocolatey Giveaway!

July 25, 2013 by Amanda R DeWitt

Yesterday I tricked myself again.  I mean you’d think I would wise up to my own ways, but I haven’t. I went out for a walk that really turned into a good run-with-some-walking.  I tricked myself by saying “it’s just a walk” and “you only have to go a mile.” These things make me all…
