While I just said on Monday that I wasn’t really feeling hot oats anymore, of course that’s what I wanted this morning. But who wouldn’t want this? I made classic stovetop oatmeal: 1/3 cup oats, 1/3 cup milk, and ~1/2-2/3 cup water. I added half a banana, sliced, and cooked over medium heat for about [...]

Perfect Summer Breakfast
Posted: June 21, 2010 in FoodTags: almond butter, banana, blueberries, breakfast, chia seeds, granola, milk, oatmeal, raspberries, yogurt
This here is the perfect summer breakfast. Now, I love oatmeal just as much as the next girl. (Actually, that’s a lie. I love oatmeal way more than the next girl, unless I’m sitting next to my BFF Melissa. We compete for the title of top oatmeal lover.) But here in June in Texas, when [...]
Double Digits!

I somehow pulled myself out of bed at 5 this morning and met my Team in Training group for 10 awesome miles. To me, this is remarkable considering several things: I didn’t have a great night’s sleep. I didn’t eat a proper dinner last night and just ate a really big snack right before I [...]

I made it! All moved back into my dorm room no worse for wear. But as usual, I’m starting the day from the beginning. Move-in day started with an early wake-up call for my Team in Training run. My running buddy and I had a “we really are runners” moment this morning. We were standing [...]
A Cautionary Tale

Beware: even if you buy a fresh, boneless salmon fillet from the store, there could still be little bones. If you’re not careful, one of those said bones could get stuck in your throat. Thankfully, we have a lovely, local emergency room and I was in and out in probably under 20 minutes. That is [...]
All the Right Reasons

I’m sure y’all will be happy to know that my morning smoothie was brown today for a good reason! (Wait. Is there another good reason for a smoothie to be brown besides chocolate…?!) Thanks to the HLS swag bag, I pulled out one of these SuperFood packets. I have several to try, but obviously I [...]

Morning! My meals have been a little short on creativity since our kitchen supplies are running low thanks to traveling. But I did get to use a swag bag item: With my breakfast this morning! 1/3 cup oats with water, milk, one whole banana, flax, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Look at all that [...]
Back in the Routine

I was up and back in the routine quickly this morning with an easy 40-minute run. And I mean quickly since I needed to be at work early which means an early alarm. I guess I was in a different place on my route when the sun came up because I saw one of the [...]

So much to say! This will be a bit of a rambling post. First of all, posting yesterday just did not happen. Life has been super busy lately, and a little bit stressful. Consequently my meals yesterday were super-random (we’re talking broccoli for a nighttime snack…what the heck?). This morning I woke up early and [...]

It’s 3:30 and I’m just starting my blog post…should give you an idea of how busy my day has been. And it only gets crazier from here! Long post today! Are y’all ready? We’ll start with dinner last night, which was prepared and eaten quickly before heading to a baseball game. I started by cooking [...]
