When we are in Indiana with our grandkids, the girls come directly home from school. And once they arrive, there are MANY activities to keep them busy.
First comes homework…(in a perfect world!) And the best place to do it is outside, under a canopy of leaves on a beautiful autumn day.

| Hard at work |
Sometimes it’s cooking with Meemaw…
 |
| Making pie! |
And sometimes it’s working on a puzzle with Peeepaw…
 |
| Playtime With Peepaw |
Or maybe it’s climbing a tree…
 |
| Limber lady! |
 |
| Up a Tree… |
But no matter WHAT the girls are planning to do, one thing is certain…
When they come in the door from school…THEY WANT A SNACK!
So here was one of my solutions…
 |
| Smoothie Time! |
A BANANA STRAWBERRY (sort of) SMOOTHIE
In a blender, combine the following:
(As usual…the measurements are an estimate!)
2 cups ice
2 ripe bananas
1 heaping tablespoon Strawberry jam (the only strawberries in the refrigerator that day)
2 cups milk
a splash of vanilla if you want
Blend well and Serve.
Did the girls like it?? I think their faces say it all…
