Perfectly Perfect

I’m feeling pretty perfect this morning! I have a clean house (including a made bed and empty sink), happy boyfriend, I’ve been to the gym this morning, cute outfit, good hair and have a packed breakfast and lunch! I have to remember to savor these highs to remember during the lows.
This [...]

Blame Horseshoe

I forgot my camera this morning. It was Horseshoe’s fault, I swear! She knocked my camera off the counter by the door, where I usually grab it on my way out. If it’s not on the counter I know it’s in my bag. This time I was wrong - it was [...]

Lemon-Banana Muesli

Hey guys,
I was exausted last night but couldn’t get to sleep - grr, I hate that. I ended up sleeping through my workout to make up the lost hours, boo. I tried a new twist on an old favorite today: Lemon Banana Meusli:
1/2c oatmeal
1/2c nonfat vanilla yogurt
1 medium banana, sliced
1 tbsp flax
2 oz [...]

Early Night, Late Morning

Despite going to bed at 10:30 last night with all my daily chores completed (go me!), I woke up late this morning and had to scramble to make it to my doctor’s appointment. (Side note: I feel awesome this morning - getting to bed early really did wonders!) I got to my 9:30 [...]

Symmetrical Blueberry Muesli

Morning all!  I was totally wiped out last night.  You know those nights when you sleep so hard that you forget that you’re sleeping?  Usually I have some consciousness that I know when I’m sleeping (does this sound weird?), but today there’s just a huge gap in time from last night to this morning.  Anyway, [...]

Banana Creme Muesli

Morning all. All that walking around yesterday must have really conked me out because there was no way I was making the gym this morning! I made a new flavor of muesli last night, so I was excited to try it out this morning:
Banana Creme Muesli
1/2c oatmeal
2 oz hemp milk
1/2c nonfat vanilla yogurt
1 tbsp [...]

Red, White, and Blue Muesli

Morning everyone! Well, my body said ‘No, thank you’ to an AM workout again this morning. I go back and forth between morning and afternoon workouts. Morning workouts do generally make me feel better during the day, but evening workouts help me sleep better - so they both have their benefits. [...]

Strawberry Shortcake Muesli

Morning!  Another rushed morning where I didn’t have time to make it to the gym.  My friend from college, Whitney, is coming into the city for the weekend today.  She’s planning on moving here in the fall for grad school, so we’re going to look at a couple schools while she’s here.  Tonight I’m hoping [...]

Nobody Better Lay a Finger…

…on my Butterfinger! Yesterday Tina at Carrots and Cake made Almond Joy Oatmeal. It looked amazing! That got me thinking - what other types of candy bar inspired oatmeal concoctions could be made? Butterfinger was the first idea to cross my mind. It was always my favorite candy bar growing up [...]

Tropical Muesli

Morning!
So yesterday I bought myself a celebratory skirt and was asked by Miss Julz for pictures. Here we go. I had P try to take some pictures before work, but after the 5th shot, he kept saying things about ‘having to go to work’, ‘being late already’ and how he’s ‘not my personal [...]
