I ate lunch at 10:50am.
Veggies and hummus
A delicious and crispy gala
The best news – protein brownie batter
30 g chocolate protein powder
2 tbs. water
1 spoonful of peanut butter
…it tastes just like brownie batter. Thanks to Jessie for sharing her obsession with this gooey goodness yesterday.
It is worthy of obsession.
…that picture is kind of embarrassing; I’m not [...]

I started the day with an hour of Dave Farmar yoga, then hustled myself out the door to work. Eleven hours later, I strolled back in the door and crashed.
Here are the highlights, in terms of food at least.
¼ cup cottage cheese, 1 sliced apple, a handful of toasted cashews and cinnamon
I also had a [...]

Today was fairly uneventful which, – in the world of 3rd grade teachers – is a pretty good thing. My eats, however, were anything but mundane. They were outstanding…and oh so filling.
Lunch was an enormous salad – that kept me full for 4.5 hours.
Bottom to top: raw cabbage, steamed carrots and broccoli, hummus, and spicy [...]

First of all, thank you all so much for your incredibly kind comments about the student who transferred out of my class on Tuesday. I can’t tell you how much they meant to me. It sure has been a crazy couple of days.
Last night, I came home and literally fell into bed, and slept until [...]

The other half of my Sunday was so productive that I hardly thought about the fact that I have to start work again tomorrow.
After an extra wonderful church service, Meeker and I went to his parents to scrounge up some lunch.
My eyes were way bigger than my stomach here. I ate the salad, half the [...]

One more day, one more day, one more day…
I kept chanting this to myself over and over again today. The kids were vibrating with excess energy. We had a long Christmas concert at the end of the school day, and as you looked across the gym, it was nothing but a sea of wiggles…I swear [...]

Such a Monday.
It was a long day, and my food was all meh. It all tasted fine, but everything I did today was rushed, and that led to less than inspired meals.
Breakfast was ever-present fruit cereal.
One apple, one banana, sun butter and vanilla soy milk. Black coffee in the back.
I came home for a quick [...]

Made it through Monday! There were moments when I wasn’t sure…
I started out with a doozy of a breakfast…cinnamon apple oats.
1/3 cup steel cut oats
1 cup water
½ apple
Cinnamon
1 tbs. brown sugar
Peanut butter
4 Alphabet cookies
I just threw the first 5 ingredients in a saucepan and then got ready for work while it all simmered on [...]

Anyone out there remember that book? Well, my house is similar today…
Goodness, they are all so cute – I can’t even handle it.
We woke up to snow (sad panda), so I made some warm things for breakfast.
A cup of coffee and pumpkin oats.
In this bowl:
½ cup oats
1 cup milk
1/8 cup pumpkin
Few drops of vanilla
Cinnamon
Butterscotch chips
Coconut
…absolutely [...]

Meeker and I are headed up a stunning little mountain town called Estes Park for the day.
We are taking the wild puppy, so it should be a real adventure.
I quickly threw together a tasty breakfast to get me down the road.
A toasted pita with an egg and lots-o-salsa…
Delish.
I will leave you with a montage of [...]
