My morning boost – Nutella, banana smoothie

Leave a comment

With the days getting hotter oats is just not cutting it as breakfast food so in comes the smoothie, in about five minutes each morning I whip one up with only four everyday ingredients and I get a large dose of calcium, potassium and a whole lot of yum 🙂

MY RECIPE…

You need:
– 1 large or two small frozen bananas (cut them up before you freeze them, it makes things sooo much easier)
– a table spoon of nutella (the spoon you are likely to put in your mouth does not count)
– a drizzle of honey (yes that is not an accurate measurement)
– a cup of milk (you might want to ad more if you prefer a thinner consistency)

You do:
Add all ingredients to a small jug, stick in your hand blender and that’s it 🙂
the frozen bananas have an ice-cream like consistency when blended so no thickeners like yogurt needed

ENJOY 🙂

It comes out to around 300cals which is not exactly a diet drink but it’s yummy and you can afford extra calories in the morning

Had the most eventful morning, woke up quarter past YOU NEED TO BE AT TRAIN STATION when my mom called to ask if I’m not going in today, been off sick for two days.
I rushed around to get ready, but still needed to take a taxi, no not a cab/town car a 16 people tightly squeezed together with no ventilation taxi.
I don’t usually mind but the taxi  was bouncing all over the place making me wish I had on a sports bra, I swear the driver thought he was playing a video game and each pothole was 500 points.
The guy next to me thought my typing on my phone was a spectator sport and the lady on my other side kept grabbing my thigh when we went over a pothole AWKWARD.
Then the taxi ended up going NOT where I had planned. CRAP I’m in the wrong TAXI!!!!!!!!! luckily the driver was just happening to go my way in the end… not a good way to start your morning
But now I’m at work and things are getting better *rolling eyes*

Summer time and all the bad that comes with it

Leave a comment

Hello all!!!
Hein here.
Yep it’s summertime again(well in our parts of the world anyway), which means its time to break out the bikinis, short skirts and show some more skin…but WAIT! There are of course a few things to consider before you go out with your delusional thoughts of beauty. Check yourself before you wreck yourself!
Firstly, dress appropriate. I could not find any images of ugly swimwear(the material is too little to mess up anyway) but following are a few examples of highly inappropriate beach wear:
This is for the highly conservative female, who dont want too show much but their faces. We get it, your saving yourself and keeping your distance from men till ‘the one’ catches your eye but come on, he wont see you if your constantly hiding yourself. Ever heard of heat, not?…you’ll feel it.
Not only does that colour stink but spend a day in that bathing suit(yes it’s suppose to be swimwear) and you too will stink. Also I cannot image how it could be practical for swimming, if that thing retains water you’ll be so heavy you may drown…then again you might deserve to.
A friendly warning this summer, IF IT DOESN’T FIT, DONT WEAR IT.

Oh gawd my eyes!!! My eyes!!! …my lunch…my just ate lunch!!!
Some of you might think of getting a tan. Think again! As important as it is to feel comfortable in your body it is also imperative to feel comfy in your skin, by accepting it’s natural colour.
Some tans gone horribly wrong.
Let’s talk feet. Many men secretly have feet fetishes, more men then you might think so take care of your tootsies. They could be the big difference between a ‘can I buy you a drink’ and a ‘piss of you gremlin!’
Crocs are a BIG NO! As comfy as your personality defective croc-wearing best friend told u they might be they are not cool…in any era. Father time should wipe them out of material existance. Think about it, they are made of plastic! Try wearing a tupperware dish on your feet in 30 degrees Celsius weather and see if they dont sweat. A blatant fire hazard, try running out a burning building and see how far you get…yes you guessed it they will melt onto the heated floor. Not cool!
Open toe shoes are not for everyone!
Seriously! Painting them will not help.
Always wear flattering shoes. yes they looked pretty in the catalogue, on the shelf or in your hand but on your feet may be a whole different story. especially if they are open toed.
Shame those toes are hanging on for dear life. Not cool!
Finally ladies and gents…take care of your heels. No one likes a patch of gravel rubbing up against them while playing footsie or lying in bed.
Grind em down or something…better yet, if all else fails, WEAR SOCKS.
