I’m happy to report that I had a much better workout this morning. Sixty-five degrees and sunrises agree with my running shoes. When I got home, I wanted overnight oats. But I lacked the foresight for that last night, so I had to go with one hour oats instead. In the blender: 1/2 cup oats … Continue reading »

Crossfit and Cereal
Good Morning! I started mine off with the crossfit workout of the day. (except I didn’t do 185lbs, I only did 100lbs. I’m just not that strong.) I workout in our garage while listening to the baby monitor. I used to listen to music, but now I listen for baby A to wake up. (Also, … Continue reading »
I give ice cream to 9 year olds, and then send them home.
I couldn’t sleep again last night, so I got up at 3am and did level one of Jillian’s 30 Day Shred. I hadn’t done this workout since my first trimester, and I forgot that it was difficult. But…it did the trick, and I was back in bed, sleeping by 4:30. I swear, exercise (and an … Continue reading »
Smooth Solution
I haven’t been in the mood to eat lately. When I was younger and this happened, my mom’s solution always came in the form of a smoothie. So this morning, I listened to my mama’s advice, and packed the blender with: 4-5 strawberries 1 kiwi 1 frozen banana 3 handfuls of oats 1.5 cups coconut … Continue reading »
Cozy
We did have school today…it felt like a Monday. But with the knowledge that Friday was just around the corner. No complaints, here. Also, it’s been snowing since noonish – and I was home by 4:30 and in my pajamas. Snow makes things cozy. Breakfast Oatmeal cooked in water, raisins, earth balance, milk, walnuts Lunch/Snacks … Continue reading »
The Letter T
I just realized that a I used the letter T a lot today. First, I started off this Tuesday with a tough workout. Before I left for the gym at 5:00, I prepped my breakfast. I threw together ½ cup oats, 1 cup milk, ½ pear, ½ cup frozen blueberries, cinnamon, and vanilla stevia. It … Continue reading »
I say ‘no’ to oats.
The problem with oats… Is that they make me hungrier then I was before I ate them. I know I’ve been through this before – but every few months, I try them again – and without fail, I finish the bowl feeling famished. This bowl should have done the trick: banana, sweet potato, ½ cup … Continue reading »
Bad Planning
I know I’ve written a post on this same subject before, but today I food planned so poorly. It started out okay… Banana cut in half with peanut butter, flax seed and rolled oats Sandwiched up and eaten in the car Then for lunch (here’s where I really failed at the food-planning thing) 1 cup … Continue reading »
Competent
Everyone always told me, teaching gets easier after your first year. But it didn’t. I figured I was just doomed for a profession that sucked the life out of me and required 60 hours of work each week. But, it seems I’ve turned a corner! The third year is a lot easier! A significant change … Continue reading »
A little flax in my coffee
Good Morning! The happiest of Friday to you all! I’m currently soaking up the sun at my kitchen table. A cat by my side, a dog at my feet. Life is good. What’s in the bowl? More of this yummy mess with an apple to dunk. It’s a little runnier today because I had to … Continue reading »
