Fall Oatmeal

I don’t mean to just keep posting about my breakfasts. But it just seems like the easiest (only?) time of day I have to actually photograph and sit down with my food. Fortunately, I had the foresight last night to put together some overnight oats. My only regret is that I didn’t make 2x this … Continue reading »

Meeker likes tofu.

(He’s going to kill me for that title) It’s been raining all day here, so we’ve been pretty house bound (except for trip to the grocery store and a twenty minute reprieve from the rain, during which Adrienne and I went for a brisk walk). Breakfast Admittedly, an odd one. We went to Meeker’s parents’ … Continue reading »

Mellow Monday

We had such a nice ease into the week today. It started and ended with nice long walks. The space between was filled with eating, napping, and watching a giant thunderstorm roll across the Rocky Mountains. Have I mentioned that I love my new life? Breakfast toasted banana bread with almond butter and fruit plus … Continue reading »

One Week

It’s been gloomy outside today…rain, rain, go away. Adrienne (and Mama) want to play. So instead, we hung out inside doing things like laundry, singing, dancing, reading, and watching TV. We also had some family come over to play with (hold) Little A. Breakfast ½ cup oats, 1 tbs. chia seeds, 1 cup water, ¼ … Continue reading »

Mrs. Baby

…like a pig.

In writing class today, my 3rd graders learned about similes and metaphors. They wanted example after example of these concepts, and for some reason, all of my illustrations had to do with food. The simile that made them howl with laughter was the one that rang true for me today… Mrs. Unger eats like a … Continue reading »

Nonnie Knows Best

I’ve got to figure out how to sleep at night. I had another 2:30am workout last night because I couldn’t sleep…blech. At least I got it out of the way, right? (Any mamas out there have tips on sleeping through the night when you have a 5lb. squiggly basketball attached to your belly?) Breakfast Grape … Continue reading »

Squished

I turned on the air conditioning in my car today. In February. I don’t even use my air conditioning in July. Baby Cakes is making me hot, and, as someone who is freezing cold 90% of the time, I love it. Breakfast Pinova apple and my homemade nut butter We had ½ cup(ish) each of … Continue reading »

Double Happy Day

Guess who already has a snow day tomorrow? No, not Punky – she doesn’t go to school. This 3rd grade teacher – who incidentally has a piece of mushroom in her teeth in this picture. The other happy news?? I got a new camera today!! I’ve been saving up for months, and Meeker surprised me … Continue reading »

Apple Wheat Scones 2 cups flour 2/3 cup wheat germ 2 tsp. baking powder 2 tsp. cinnamon ¼ tsp. baking soda ¼ tsp. salt a … Continue reading »
