I put my “brave face” on this morning and left the camp I established in my room to face the mouse and find breakfast. I refused to let one little mouse prevent me from having a good breakfast! Uncle Sam’s, Kashi Heart-to-Heart, Kashi Go-Lean Crunch, Vanilla Soy Milk, 1/2 of a Banana, handful of Blueberries, [...]
My thought process this morning went something like this: It’s raining, it’s pouring… I don’t really want to get out of bed…I need oatmeal. My parents do not share my obscene love for breakfast, therefore; the selection of “oatmeal add-ins” when I come home is extremely limited. They do not have a trace almond butter, [...]
Dinner last night was simple and satisfying. For some reason warm weather always makes me crave grilled items and fresh produce. I marinated a chicken breast in barbecue sauce and grilled it on my cast iron skillet. I wish I had access to a real grill but my make shift grill pan over an open [...]
Lack of internet + no time= my demise. Although I have been completely disconnected for the past few days, I did not forget about my dear blog. My internet is not going to be installed until Wednesday, so I am EXTREMELY grateful right now for free Wi-Fi at coffee shops….I’m also extremely grateful for my [...]
I am officially starting to move in to my apartment this afternoon, which means I had to clean and organize the contents of my pantry and refrigerator yesterday. I woke up yesterday morning CRAVING cold cereal. It was a blessing in disguise because I was able to finish the last of my Kashi Heart to [...]
Every bowl of oats that I make is slightly different, but they never fail to satisfy my mood. I am constantly thinking, “This is the best bowl I have ever made”, and I truly feel like that at the time because each bowl has an impact on my day. Today I woke up to a [...]
AH! I feel like I have been away for ages! This weekend was a little NUTS and filled with a few too many NUTS. I began my Saturday with a lovely breakfast with my roommate of Cinnamon Peaches and Cream Kodiak Cakes with sliced pineapple, watermelon, orange juice and coffee on the side. I love [...]
The boys did a GREAT job with dinner last night. They slaved over this meal all day, and all we had to do was show up! How lucky are we? When we arrived we were welcomed into their main foyer with cheese and crackers. After mingling for a while we were directed downstairs, where they [...]
BREAKING NEWS: OATS ARE OFFICIALLY BACK IN MY LIFE! I was starting to get nervous that my ugly green monster/granola bowls were becoming my new breakfast of choice. I have been choosing alternative breakfast options for nearly a week, but alas, loaded oatmeal always wins. I even pumped it up a bit more with ground [...]
Do you ever wake up and have a Groundhog’s Day movie-esque moment, where you feel like you’ve already lived this day before? Maybe it was the 5am wake up and ACTUALLY making it to yoga, or maybe it was my double Amazing Grass repeat, but today was one of those days for me. I have [...]
