My food cravings are so random sometimes.
A few hours after breakfast (overnight oats + iced coffee) this morning, my taste-buds wanted something cool, sweet, and creamy, but also crunchy and salty. There were lots of competing cravings, but I just went with it. So, for lunch today, I ended up pairing a banana smoothie with kale chips. It was random, yet nutritious and delicious.
The banana smoothie was easily the highlight of the meal. In the mix:
- 1 container of plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup Almond Breeze
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1/8 tsp cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp nutmeg
- 3-4 ice cubes
On the side, I enjoyed a big batch of kale chips.
I loaded on the sea salt today! 😉
So, I have to show you guys my most recent purchase because I’m a bit obsessed with it. I’m also obsessed with Etsy, in general, so I figured I’d share. I know a lot of you love Etsy, too! 😉
After seeing Katie from goodLife {eats} with an adorable strap on her camera at the Thermador Blogger Weekend, I just had to have one, too. I asked her where she got it and she directed me to August Blossoms on Etsy.
August Blossoms had a ton of different styles to chose from, but I ended up getting the exact same strap as Katie. I love the design as well as the lens pocket. I’m always misplacing mine, so this was a key selling point for me.
How adorable is this camera strap?! I’m in love.
