Life's Snapshots - Old Fruit

I'm a PK (preacher's kid) whose mom was an MK (missionary's kid).  I learned how to scrimp & save.  I learned that gifts you needed were GOOD GIFTS :)  I learned that we ate all on our plate because there was no guarantee for the next meal some days.  So, what to do with fruit that the hubby deems as unsuitable, you know, old fruit?

Old bananas make great banana bread - if you can get yourself to make it. 

Old apples make the neighbor horses & cows happy - but 10 of them?

Since I always seem to have trouble making banana bread before the bananas turn to liquid & since there were no livestock for next door neighbors before this house, I've gotten in the habit of slicing & freezing both bananas & apples as they begin to get "OLD."

This morning I enjoyed a protein shake from my kitchen blender with the ingredients:

 

• 1 Cup Plain Yogurt 

• 1 frozen sliced banana

• 1 frozen sliced apple (w/peeling on)

• 1/2 cup natural apple juice

• 6 ice cubes

• 1 scoop of protein powder (that my friend Kimberly bought for me at Trader Joe's)

And, I took it outside for some old fruit & renewing time with God on the back porch swing :)

For everything, there is a season...
