Go Bananas (for the Murray Match)

Yippee; I am a bridesmaid for the Backhurst wedding!
And in preparation for the dress shopping I am cutting down and exercising hard.
And so for the first step of the healthy eating regime...

.................................................................

Fool yourself Banana Ice Cream 


Ingredients 

Bananas

(And that's the list - great isn't it!)

Method

Freeze chunks of banana

Blitz the chunks of frozen banana in a food processor

Serve

                                                 .................................................................

You can also add lots of other stuff into it if you want some variety.
I opted for some agave nectar and organic peanut butter.



And here are a few other ideas on here too...

Deeee-lish-usssss!!!


And I'm sat here eating a bit whilst typing this and listening to an audiobook on my iphone.
I kind of like doing 3 things at once - I'd love to say that this is fully possible, but I've been told off a few times whilst watching films with people so I recognise it's not really doable!

Now, I do have a plan that I have concocted with Annabel to make something altogether more indulgent, creative and sinful for the big day but I'm going to have to keep that a secret until 16th February. And no, it's not cupcakes, so please don't ask me, my lips are sealed!
All will be revealed in my scheduled blog post for the big day!

Congratulations again to the happy couple; you've both been there through every high and low I've had for so many years now. I love you guys and cannot wait for your big day! You're truly "A list" friends; thank you James for making Annabel so happy and thank you Annabel for bringing James back to Brizzle!

J :)

P.S. One other thing; I forgot to get them an engagement card, I'm sure I'm forgiven as I had quite a lot of "stuff" going on at the time that meant I wasn't my usual self :s However, I made them a "bridesmaid acceptance card" instead - wrote that poem myself too... (okay maybe I hear something similar once - it's all about stealing the good ideas isn't it...! ;)


Right, I'd better get moving, I'm off to Bella's to watch the Wimbledon final - Go Murray!!!
(and I'm taking their card, gift - and some fool yourself banana ice-cream) - hope they like it too!
