Today was a big day! I presented my research to my committee and while some people had their doubts...

I passed! 🤩

I can see the end in sight and these next couple of weeks I get to add the finishing touches.

Happy Ice cream 🍨 day! We have been enjoying making different flavors of Banana 🍌 nice cream with our #vitamix!

It's simple, easy, & 100% plant-based. The best part is that there is 0g added sugar (unless of course you top it with dark chocolate 🍫 like I did 😂).

2) Add bananas to a food processor and 1 cup of any fruit of your choice 🍑🍓🫐🥭 (fresh or frozen)

3) Add 1/2 cup plant milk especially if using frozen fruit.

4) Blend on low and add more milk as needed until smooth.

@DebtFreeGuys I get the first 65%, but the rest? It's called get out there and pay your dues so your parents don't have to... The reason I was cleaning freezers with a Masters.

@almostbrenda Good luck with your defense! Some of my colleagues use the HRS data set. Very interesting findings that HCD impacts people differently across ethnicities. Hopefully your work can lead to policy changes! #womeninscience

I am over the moon 🌙 that I believed in myself and put in the hard work to get it done. ✅ For another step off the list. I'm owning the PhD title now while the paperwork takes its time to process 😉.
