Gotta make a smooth move

I have strawberries and bananas and yogurt to make into a smoothie for hubby and I . Often he will not do breakfast. Today we have a lot to do so I have been up going to various sites.
I am frustrated by surveys and offers on Swag Bucks.
There is a reason myLot is my favorite place. If I want to do offers I can but it is not essential.
I think we will reach 90 F. today. So I had best get my outside stuff done early.
I hope to be back really soon though

I have not even looked lately. I do not know how to get there from here. I will have to look.

Offers are listed under your profile on that dropdown menu.

That is odd. My daughter bought bananas and strawberries at the store yesterday. She is going to make a strawberry-banana smoothie for us.

It is a popular combination. I also like peaches. Enjoy the smoothie, it is a cool summer treat that can be good for you.

@celticeagle Carrot juice is the sweetest juice I have ever had.

@GardenGerty ....I like to add carrot juice, bee pollen and beet juice, parsley and such for nutrients.

Your smoothie sure sounds yummy, have a great day today.Don't stay out in the sun and heat too long.
I do Swagbucks and just recently started doing the surveys since the actually let me have some, lol. Doing pretty good with it and make around 200 to 300 SB's a day.

You do well. I did not do well today yet. I need about a hundred points so that I can cash for another $25 on Amazon.I know the more often I go there the more likely I am to complete them. I just had rather be here.

It picked up after I posted this. I got enough points to go ahead and cash out, and I will. It is still pleasant here, maybe will only be in the 80's. We have a good breeze and lots of green around to make it feel cooler.

@GardenGerty Even the pups seem to prefer the air conditioned house to the outdoor glare. We might get to the low 100s tomorrow. I watered this morning. I'm going to need to check on stuff toward dark tonight.

My husband wouldn't drink a smoothie if his life depended on it. He doesn't eat fruit or berries. I can get him to eat bananas when I make a refrigerated cake with them.
I once did Swag Bucks for a very short time. Didn't take me long to stop.
It will be in the 80's today and we will be heading out soon to take the boat out on one of the lakes.
Have a great day Heather!

I do not do the ones with greens. Hubby wants two bananas a day to prevent muscle spasms. Have fun on the boat. I keep trying to convince hubby if we would get household stuff done during the week we could just go play. We have company coming, gotta get the chores all done.

@GardenGerty I know many that use greens. Kind of makes me gag a little to think of that. LOL. Don't know how they do it. I would rather eat my food than drink it.
I try to get the housework done on Friday, which is my day off. That way we can go do something fun on the weekend.

You cannot send a help ticket without a screen shot and knowing the number of the survey you took. About once a month I do one, they say it did okay, but I never get paid.

I love real strawberries. Artificial strawberry flavoring is not my thing. Give me real strawberries any day, any time.

@GardenGerty I can understand that, to me it seems way easier than swagbucks, the surveys are shorter, you always get credit, and I average 5-15 a month, sometimes 20, so thats pretty nice

If you get notifications of the "ten minute surveys" they often qualify, if you can get in before they fill up. I got one of those and another after I put this post up.

@GardenGerty Good to know, I've tried it and it didn't seem to work for me. I'll keep my eye out for them, and try to get to them as soon as they show up.

It's in the high 80s outside today and I have one window open a little bit. When I sit beside the window, the air is hot, hot, hot! But my fan is on and the air blowing around is very cool, so I'm staying put in front of it. I'm not sure how this is working but I'm so grateful! Hope you have a lot of fun outdoors while you're there! (and I feel the same way about Swagbucks)

Since I posted this I have gotten two surveys, so I can cash out for a $25 Amazon. I have a/c for the bedrooms but we do not seem to need it. In my living rooms I have chosen to not have a/c units. I have windows open, we have wind straight out of the north, and I have my fan going. The computers give off heat, but it is really not bad.

@GardenGerty oh how I love getting those Amazon gift cards. Or sometimes I opt for Walmart, if I have need for a few things from them. It's raining here today and quite damp, so the air is a bit chilly. I'm holding onto chilly air for as long as I can! lol

@GardenGerty It would serve that purpose well. In fact, several companies are now marketing drinks as breakfast substitutes, so they must have stolen your system.

@Asylum I know it has been popular for a long time because commuters can drink a drink much more neatly than they can eat oatmeal and drive. I do not recommend doing that as I had a friend get hit by a lady who was eating oatmeal and turned across traffic.

Possibly mine does not meet the true definition, or maybe it does. I do not put ice in the blender with mine. I do serve it in a chilled glass. I used to do this long before they became a "trend". It was a good summer breakfast before I worked outdoors.

I don't think I've ever had a smoothie but I might have to try one some day. I'd nix the bananas though. Not a fan and mixing them with anything makes everything taste like banana! LOL

I usually do not like things that say they are "strawberry banana" but like this fresh. To keep down leg cramps hubby has two bananas daily. Sometimes they get too soft. I know people who put some oatmeal in their smoothie, but I like just fruit. Peaches are yummy. When I worked at headstart we would use lime juice, honey, yogurt and seedless watermelon.

I made cherry/banana fruit roll ups out of some cherry puree I had on hand with bananas too, or course. It is a good combination.
