Strawberry Banana Smoothie

It's summertime in the northern hemisphere, and that means strawberry season where I live. For me, it's always smoothie season, but smoothies are better than ever in the summer with all the fresh produce we can put in them.

Bananas and strawberries are always good combinations for snacks, breakfasts, and definitely smoothies. The ingredients for this particular smoothie are too simple to pass up; you're actually just sipping fruits and water, but the combination of flavors and the smooth texture are delightful.

As I write this post, thunder pops in the sky around me, leaves quiver in the bushes out back and the sky is a stark white color.  The gigantic clouds are on the verge of producing rain for the third time today, and I think it's lovely. 

My family and I have been staying at my grandma's beach house in eastern North Carolina for about a week and a half. The days are hot and sunny (except for today!), and the nights are short and not too dark. So basically, it's the ideal kind of weather for sipping smoothies all day long. ​

Oh and by the way, the rain just started and the thunder is getting louder. I'm staring out the window, sipping tea, blogging and reading -- my favorite kind of afternoon! I can only hope you're having as peaceful a week as I am.

I'm sending you virtual hugs, if you need them, and happy thoughts of good food and gratitude.

Thank you, Sarah! Me too- I'm a lover of putting very few ingredients in smoothies, as you can see.

By the way, I'm a total fan of yours, and it's a totally honor to have you comment on my site! <3
