Thirsty Thursday the SB Way with a Twist

Happy Thursday or #ThirstyThursday as you might already be thinking. Hang in there, the weekend is almost here.

Because it's #ThirstyThursday, I've decided to post some quick smoothie recipes compliments of Angela Simpson over at Eat Spin Run Repeat. Her blog is amazing and she posts the most incredible recipes. Stay tuned for an upcoming post on the top bloggers to follow (she's definitely on the list).

Fall is a great time of year for many reasons and not just because my birthday happens to be in a few weeks (2 weeks to be exact). I love that football has returned, the weather is much cooler for running, PSL is back at Starbucks, but most of all I love the flavors of Fall (especially pumpkin). 

Try switching out your normal fruit smoothies with one these...
