H A PP Y 4 T H !!
Look who was mewing at our back patio door all morning. He is just dying to come inside and play! So cute


We were up at 6:30 this morning to hit the gym before our vacation starts. I did 30 mins on the Stairmaster , 12 on the Stat bike and pull-ups and push-ups with the husband.
For breakfast I reheated the last portion of nectarine oats and added a VERY ripe banana , the last of our blackberries, and some almonds + almond butter .


We’re packing up now and are leaving for Asheville shortly. Karen is joining us, and we are staying in a two-room B&B cottage for the night. Since the trip is short, I am not taking my laptop and plan to blog tomorrow afternoon/evening when we return. Talk to you guys then!

Looks like Jenna’s cat Dexter came to visit, haha ;0)
Happy 4th of July!!
Awe, you should take the kitty in…it’s so cute!
Have fun on your trip and happy 4th of July!
Is that a stray cat? If so, you should probably take him to your local humane society and set him up with some food and water in the meantime. He must get pretty hot in the sun! Happy 4th!
I am so excited for you and your Asheville trip! We will be there in 2 weeks, and I could not be more excited! I wish I had noticed that you were going before you left – I’d insist that you eat at Salsa and hopefully Early Girl!
I can’t wait to see food pics from Asheville!

Enjoy your quick trip- sounds great:) I love B$B’s, always so quaint and relaxing

Have fun on your trip Kath! Looks like you’ve been eating lots of yummy food!
The cat is adorable. Is her a stray?? You oatmeal looks AMAZING!
I hope you enjoyed your munvhies at the Symphony- it’s nice to let loose once and a while=)
Cats are so much fun to watch
They do the wildest things!
And mmmm I’ve yet to try nectarines, but I bought some this morning–hope they’re good! Your oatmeal looks great as always :0)
Have a great trip!
Enjoy your time off. Please let me know if you have any ideas of how else I can eat the almond butter beyond the oatmeal? Do you have any other recipes for it?
Asheville must be fun, no lunch today… Have fun, you deserve it!
Happy 4th Kath!
That kitty is adorable… but too skinny
He could use a nice can of tuna!
That kitty is so adorable! I grew up with black cats so I have a soft spot for the sweet adorable little things!!
Hope you had a great fourth! The B&B trip sounds fabulous!
i love kitties
Oh, what a cute cat! If he’s or she’s still there when you come back I would suggest taking her to your local Humane Society. He or she looks like she needs food and water.
Enjoy your time off!
try almond butter, banana and honey sandwiches or almond butter on an english muffin or an apple and almond butter or a banana and ab! its so amazing and not just with oatmeal!
Almond butter on celery sticks or on brown rice rice cakes. Mmmmm…..
Kitties are so cute! Hope you’re having a good little get-away.
yadi ,
Anytime where you’d use peanut butter – sandwiches, bananas, sauces, spread on crackers, etc.
