I love the holidays but what I love most about Christmas is the anticipation so naturally when I saw this modern interpretation of an advent calendar I was off to the craft store.
Enjoy this healthy but scrumptious morning shake.
Peanut Butter, Banana, and Oat Milkshake
1. 2 cups cold skim milk, 2. 1 banana peeled, cut into chunks 3. 1/4 cup peanut butter 4. 1 heaping teaspoon honey 5. 2 tablespoon finely ground flax seeds 6. 2 teaspoon old fashioned oats, ground fine 7. 1 cup of ice cubes 8. In a spice grinder, pulverize flax seeds and oats into a fine powder. My spice grinder is just my coffee grinder really well cleaned out.
In a blender combine milk, banana, peanut butter, honey, and ground flax, oats and ice. Blend until no banana chunks remain, and the mixture is thoroughly incorporated. Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately.
“Balzac’s Omelette” by Anka Muhlstein published by Random House takes us on a delightful journey through 19th Century France and how the culture of food and friends influenced Balzac’s genius. Nestled somewhere between the land of coffee table book and novel this has definitely earned a spot on my table.

ORIBE Hair Care Products are my new addiction. We are all guilty of over drying our hair with shampoo and then overcompensating for lack of moisture with super rich conditioners. Oribe’s Signature Collection for everyday use leaves your hair in perfect balance. I have been using it for 10 days and the results and the smell have made me a believer. Shampoo- $29.00 Conditioner – $34.00
