Homemade Pregnancy Smoothies

Lately I’ve come to the realization that my diet isn’t what it should be.  I’ve actually found that the further I go into pregnancy, the less hungry I am.  And after evaluating a few days of what I’ve been eating (I recorded everything I ate) it’s safe to say that I wasn’t too happy with my choices.   Sooo I figure it’s never too late to turn things around!  And FYI, I have been taking my prenatals, but I know that’s still not an excuse to eat poorly.
Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m not eating just candy and junk…I’m talking poorly as in not eating enough.  I’ve found lately that I’m not liking meat all of the sudden, and normally I love everything meat!  So I was concerned about my protein intake.  I Googled and looked through my pregnancy manual from my birth center and with great relief found a way to add protein and other good stuff to my diet that my tummy could handle:  PROTEIN SMOOTHIES!  Sounded pretty good to me!  These were my first two experiments:

Whey Protein Strawberry Banana Shake

 Ingredients:  1 cup milk
1 tablespoon of vanilla whey protein
1/3 cup vanilla yogurt
and then any fruit (frozen or fresh) to your taste
Blend until smooth!
*Now I’ve found that nothing is set in stone so if you need to adjust any of the amounts of ingredients, it’s up to you!  Also the whey protein may take some getting used to…the taste was odd to me at first but I was okay with it by the end of the drink (plus I had put more than a tablespoon, so that might have been the reason).

Vanilla Banana Protein Shake

Ingredients: 1 cup milk
1/4 cup powdered milk
1 banana (you can put any combo of fruit here)
1 teaspoon of vanilla
1 scoop of vanilla yogurt
1 tablespoon of wheat germ (for vitamin b)
Blend until smooth!
Let me know if you have any great protein smoothie recipes!

**GIVEAWAY CLOSED** Winner = @shadylynnb! DAY 9 = Santa’s Greeting Block + GIVEAWAY!  Santa loves his HO, HO, HOs right?! 🎅🏼🎅🏽🎅🏿 So I figured for Day 9 of the #QuiltmasSpectacular, I’d give you the #SantasGreetingBlock, a free quilt block that’s plain and simple...and all about the man who likes cookies, drinks milk and brings gifts to children. 🙌🏻 What’s there not to love?! ❤️ Find the link in my profile to get your hands on the free pattern for this cute little block! . 258 178
It’s done and is now part of the #quiltsinthewasher gang! 🙌🏻 It will be packed up and shipped off to @themakingsofjoy to then be donated to #quiltsforthefatherless. It makes my heart so happy! 🥰 567 37
I’m another year older 🎉(and hopefully wiser) since I last posted…and figured I’d start by forcing myself to do something other than quilting with straight lines! 🙌🏻😂 I think I’ve put it off for so long since the perfectionist in me can’t stand trying things that I’m not good at (I like living within my quilty comfort zone 🙈). Buuuuut you have to start somewhere right?  I’m attempting an orange peel quilting design and I’ll just have to go with the flow and not beat myself up too much over errors.  It’s sooooo hard to let go though!  I’m sure some of you know what I’m talking about.  Wish me luck! 🤞🏻 410 61
🎉 And today the tester celebration comes to an end! 🎉  These final three ladies deserve a round of applause for their #DayTripQuilt versions! 📷 In order of quilty appearance = @finleyfabric, @sarahsew_sew and @spoolsandspice (they are tagged in their photos too!) Head to their accounts to see what they’ve been up to, you won’t be sorry (because who doesn’t love finding new quilt friends?!) And as with every pattern release, I owe a huge thanks to all of my testers.  They dedicate themselves to sewing up a quilt and picking over my pattern to make sure all my math is correct along with hunting for all those grammar mistakes. 🙈  All so that my pattern is ready to go for its release date! 🙌🏻 I’m forever thankful to all of the testers I’ve shared with you this past week. 🥰 #patterntester #quiltpatterntester 515 8
Just when you thought I was done celebrating tester pics...I’m not! 📷 Genna of @wetmountainquiltco left me speechless with her #DayTripQuilt and her incredible photos!  She is one of my all time favorites at taking #quiltsinthewild pics so go see for yourself over on her account!  Stay tuned for the last two tester pics tomorrow. Then I’ll give it a rest!  I promise! 😉🙌🏻 . 420 14
🎉Pattern SALE ends tonight!🎉 And I’m still not done sharing gorgeous #DayTripQuilt versions! 📷 Morgan of @morgankellyquilts (we’re name twins!) made a traditional version and came up with such a pretty and unique color palette!  You must go take a peek at her account to be inspired by her beautiful makes and perfectly paired fabric combinations! 🥰 #quilt #modernquilt 269 12
