Strawberry Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie Bowl

Well that was a mouthful. But, it was very delicious indeed! I decided to make this this morning as the day before my sister reminded me of eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches everyday for lunch as a kid. And I wanted a smoothie bowl. So behold this wonderful combination! A fruity, peanut butter-y combination that was perfectly refreshing and filling. 

After enjoying this smoothie bowl and (of course) a cup of coffee, I set out to complete my transfer application for NC State. It pains me to have to go through the application process again and those dreaded application essays, but as I want to change my major and the school that I go to now doesn't have it I kind of have to. So now I just hope that I can get accepted (again) and be able to pursue my dreams of becoming a graphic designer! Unfortunately, I won't know if I'm accepted until late March, so until then I'll just be completely stressed out and wait.😊 Wish me luck!

Banana Berry Smoothie Bowl

I'm sure all of you have seen the smoothie bowl somewhere around the web by now. Who knew putting a smoothie in a bowl could be a trend? But I don't disagree with it all because actually, putting a smoothie in a bowl with added toppings might taste better than an actually smoothie. The smoothie bowl that I made was absolutely delicious, and my sister even thought so too. She said it tasted almost exactly like the raspberry smoothie at Tropical Smoothie (!!!) Smoothie bowls are also great because for some reason being something that you eat instead of drink makes it more filling. And leaves you feeling refreshed and very healthy.😊 Give my recipe a go if you're looking to test the new smoothie bowl trend, it won't dissapoint!
