Happy 4th of July!
Summer's here! And so am I! Sort of....
I know things have been very quiet over here on my blog post front--it's been a very busy time for me in my personal life, but I've been brewing on all kinds of great recipes I can't wait to share. I'm leaving the country for several weeks, but look forward to sharing some great recipe ideas upon my return!
In the meantime, why not help yourself to a cool beverage? You can check out some of my old favorites, like the Chocolate-Peanut Butter-Banana-Tofutti Cutie shake or some chilly basil lemonade. Last summer I posted a different banana-berry shake, but you can give this one a try as well!
I just threw this together with what I had on hand, but in August I'll share some more creative concoctions with you!
