This shake is rich and delightfully creamy with crisp fall flavors. It reminds me of a creamy pumpkin pie! It is just what my body was craving after my afternoon run.Speaking of running, I haven't posted much about running lately because, to be completely honest, there hasn't been much running going on over here.

I decided to share this one though, because the combination is just too tasty not to.Peanuts and chocolate is scrumptious, but peanuts and chocolate with bananas and coconut is better!
