The Charlie Brown Bowl

Austin pulled this out of his backpack the other day and the first words out of my mouth is, “Hey! Cool Charlie Brown bowl!” Austin was not pleased and got mad at me. “Charlie Brown is a screw-up and I only had 5 minutes to make this bowl and I thought it looked pretty good considering the amount of time I had.”

Geesh- I only meant it looked like Charlie Brown’s shirt. Sensitive pre-teen.

In response to the question about my smoothies- well like everything else cooking related- I tend to just throw a bunch of things in the blender. Here is my current fave

1 banana
yogurt (vanilla or plain)
1 tablespoon wheat germ
1 tablespoon ground flax seed
oj
then a mix of frozen berries- usually strawberries, blueberries, blackberries

It makes a ton so I put it in a big cup and drink half for breakfast and save the rest for sipping through out the day.
Sometimes I offer to share but no one usually takes me up on it so maybe it only tastes good to me?
