fruity milk!

Brad asked me to "humor him" for 60 days and do p90x with him. Hmm... so far I'm not a big fan. I'm more of an aerobics class kinda girl- good music, constant movement (real cardio! thats right, Tony), fun routines, dripping sweat. I'm thinking I'll go to the gym 1/2 the time and do the man workout w/ him when I don't go. We are trying to be a bit healthier and get rid of some of our post-wedding pudge. Since we love food so much, more exercise is a better option for us.  We can still make a few attempts to eat a little healthier though...
I'm loving blending milk with a little fruit for breakfast or a post-workout treat. It's so simple and yummy, so if you've never done this you should give it a try. The cinnamon makes the banana great and the strawberry turns the loveliest shade of pink. (no pic, so you'll just have to see for yourself.) I don't know which is my favorite yet. :)

BANANA MILK
1 banana
≈1 C milk
2-3 ice cubes (sometimes I use cubes of pineapple juice that I froze)
≈1/4 tsp cinnamon (just sprinkle it in)
1/2 tsp vanilla
a spoonful of splenda or sugar

STRAWBERRY MILK
5 strawberries (more or less)
≈1 C milk
2-3 ice cubes (again, sometimes I do the frozen pineapple juice)
a spoonful of splenda/sugar
1/4 tsp vanilla, optional

Blend. Enjoy.

Katie you should totally do P90x!! I'm almost done with my 6th week..then 6 more to go. It is INTENSE. Do the plyometric workout and you will be literally dripping in sweat. And I think I will be trying some of the fruity milk :) love the new blog!
