Since I spent all day yesterday on my blog job, today is all about my job as a student. The second I push publish I am getting straight to work. Going for a run at 11. Lunch. Then classes all afternoon and evening.
So I let myself have a leisurely breakfast before I get on it –
Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffin Pumpkin Banana Oatmeal!
- 1/3 cup oats, soy milk, water
- Pinch salt, splash vanilla, sprinkle cinnamon
- 1/2 tbsp chia seeds
- 1/2 banana
- ~1/3 cup pumpkin, stirred in at end
- About 1/3 of a Great Harvest Chocolate Chip Pumpkin muffin top. Since it’s all mine, I just ate the top off!
- Spoonful MaraNatha AB
My was this divine!
Fresh Market Decaf Pumpkin Spice + Caf Christmas Blend
[Can you tell I haven't been using my napkin – it's stayed all rolled up since I got it!!]

That bowl of oatmeal is Fall, personified. It also looks like deliciousness, personified. Amazing!
Woah – that was a mouthful! I had to re-read that breakfast name a few times! Glad to see that just the muffin top made it in. It’s so delish – why bother with the rest?
Have a great day as a student – learn, learn, learn!
That looks delicious!!
Brekkie looks great!
Enjoy!
This might be my favorite oatmeal of yours yet.
Looks great! Love the bowl. I never use fancy cloth napkins either. I manage with an un-photogenic dish towel
Yummy that looks delish. I LOVE that zebra print bowl <3
Do you ever think you should lose more weight? I mean- do you ever feel pressure to be thinner?
I want a chocolate chip pumpkin muffin!! YUM.
I have visiting the Chapel Hill Great Harvest on my to do list!
coffee flavor combo sounds divine!
I love muffin sprinkled into my oats! The texture and flavor contrast is awesome. Have a great and productive day!
Sounds like a great combo!
I have yet to try a Great Harvest muffin, but I really want to!
That oatmeal looks even better than divine. I think the chocolate chip muffin seals the deal. ARG! You have made me crave chocolate for the third time today. Not giving in this time, though!
mmmm i have half a pumpkin cookie i was thinking of spreading over my breakfast today

have fun working today!

I am so in love with that bowl!

That bowl is perfection!! I love the muffin topping
Happy Wednesday, Kath!
I like the orangey oatmeal in the zebra bowl, very eye catching!
Have a great school filled day!
Oh man, I need to get on the pumpkin train STAT! I’ve only had pumpkin seeds so far, but have 2 sugar pumpkins waiting for me to do something with them. I think scones or muffins might be in order.
Have a good day!
That oatmeal sounds and looks amazing!
Beautiful oats!
just the name of that oatmeal has made me get hungry for some! looks amazing!
Wow! I’m usually not very impressed by everyone’s oatmeals, but yours looks pretty fabulous!
Kath, that oatmeal looks absolutely fantastic!! I just wanted to let you know it’s been almost two years since I started reading your blog now, and i have to say I owe you big time for setting such a great example for good eating habits! I was reading your “molting” post, and I really related to that, because I turned 27 in February, and I was shocked to find I had gained about 7 pounds in the last year…my weakness is ice cream, so I have started making it a once a month scheduled treat as part of me and my husband’s date night, and the pounds are starting to roll off…I too believe in intuitive eating, and making ice cream a particular treat to look forward to is helping me with my day to day. Anyways, thanks for all the great blog posts, and hope you have a great day!
The oatmeal looks like it was just the right thing for this morning. Have a great day!
Hi Kath!
As always… great looking breakfast! The pumpkin spice coffee looks good! Do they have it regular? I don’t do decaf
Looks great! Gosh I love pumpkin muffins!!!!
Good luck on another busy day! Love the seasonal oats.
Cutest bowls EVER!!!
I would love a Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffin – sounds amazing!
Oh my gosh, your oatmeal looks ridiculously good! I thought my overnight banana-vanilla oats were yummy but you win.
Wow, it looks like a big pumpkin muffin. Yum!
Jenn
I need to find some pumpkin spice coffee!! Yours looks incredible! Good luck with studious productivity
Hope your student day goes well!
Deeelicious breakfast. Have a great day as a student!
That oatmeal looks amazing – and I love that bowl! I also love associating days with various jobs. Love your organization skills, as usual Kath!
Ha I love that the napkin is decoration.
Have fun at your “other” job.
I always wondered about that napkin. I thought you were extremely neat and good at doing laundry. Thanks for bursting my bubble
Okay, I have to try pumpkin in my oatmeal! I’ve seen other people doing this too and it just sounds fantastic! Your breakfast looks like the perfect way to start the day.
Oh my goodness, this looks perfect!
Completely meets the bowl of oats I made this morning, hehe
That looks amazing. I wish I could have someone like you to cook me breakfast every morning
yummm, that muffin top looks delish! just think of all the muffin tops you’ll be able to eat once you and matt have a bakery of your own!! i think there will be some really dreamy oatmeal concoctions in the future :O)
Oh what a combination! Sounds amazing. I love the bowl too!
Trixie,
Is this in reference to the “Live Lightly” post?
Christin S,
Hard to believe people have been reading for that long! And I’ve been blogging for that long!!
Estela,
I’m pretty sure they do, I just didn’t see it and needed more decaf anyways.
Kath
That looks delicious!
i just received the same placemat/napkin holder today and was confused at first (before i saw the soup boxes). i actually recognized it first from your blog before i put two and two together!
