Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie and a Possible Pest

So this is really more of a good idea than a recipe. And really, where can you go wrong with ingredients like this?

Protein? Good
Potassium? Good
Calcium? Good

Throw it all in the blender with a little honey for some sweetness if you desire...


And within in seconds you have this tasty drink by your side!


I really don't have more of a recipe than that; I secretly hate using measuring cups and spoons when I don't absolutely have to. I've made this twice in the past two days and it's been a little different each time, but with a combination of peanut butter, honey, and banana, it's hard to screw up. Unless, of course, you make it too runny (I strongly dislike runny smoothies). I always start with less milk than I think I'll need, because it's way easier to add more milk if necessary than take excess milk out.

And now, on a totally unrelated note, does anyone have a clue what this is?


It's got the fairly standard build and wing structure of a dragonfly, but I can't find any information about one with these particularly distinct colorings. It sounds like dragonflies are welcome garden visitors because they eat other pests--but I had seven show up literally overnight, and have never seen ones like this before, which concerns me slightly. Any help?
