I make the same protein drink every morning for breakfast and it calls for a half banana. When David was at home, it was easy because I’d use one half and he’d use the other. Well, now I have an extra half every day so I’ve been wrapping them in saran wrap and freezing them.

I’ve learned through experience that this makes the banana VERY hard and it causes the bottom of my blender to come undone and leak protein drink all over the blender, counter, etc.

EPIC mess.

So today, I decided to take the banana out of the freezer before I walked Boo Boo.

When I got home, the banana was thawed. And super squishy, almost liquid-y. Which is not a big deal in the whole scheme of things since it’s just going to be blended up into the protein drink.

But dig this: it smelled like the banana that my mom used to pack in my school lunch after it sat in my locker all morning

Remember that smell?
