Beautiful fall day ready to get going!!
Up for a run at 7 this morning – skies were blue, leaves were red and orange. These are the days I wait all year for!!
I actually ran to the farmer’s market, which I have been SO sad not to go to all summer with bakery + busy-ness. I stopped in to see the sisters behind No Bull burgers and chatted for a while. They are so nice! Came home with a pack of burgers frozen in my hand!! Dropped them off and kept running. Think I covered about 4 miles?
Overnight pumpkin oats were waiting for me
The mix
- 1/3 cup rolled oats
- 1/3 cup pumpkin
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1/2 cup greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- Cinnamon
- Pinch salt
- Cville Cluster
- Biscoff
Coconut tea!
Like my giant gourd!? [twhs]
Bakery time, then Anne P time, then wine time!

Morning ! I’m having pumpkin overnight oats as we speak
hope you have a great productive weekend !
I am going to try those overnight oats tomorrow – they look good. I like the photos of the pumpkin on the steps. Congrats for supporting the Farmers Market. I always like to support the little guys and local producers
What’s that number mean?
pumpkin pi! Haha, so clever
I thought that number went on forever. Does it wrap around the back of the pumpkin?
It’s how many days it would take to eat the pumpkin if you cooked it first
In your case it might be hours, not days.
Ha!
Ha it reminds me of the line in “Stupid for Your Love” by Brendan James that says “I still remember 30 numbers after 3 point 1-4 pi, don’t ask me why…”
<3 that song!
You have inspired me to try pumpkin with my oatmeal this morning. Yum.
Hi! Good for you already getting your run in; I am hoping to get a long run in later this morning.
I just had a bowl of vegan overnight oats with iced coffee; truly the perfect way to start the day!
And the giant gourd in your picture is beautiful btw!
Awesome morning run! Your oats look marvelous Kath. Have a super Saturday!!
What a nice start to a fall Saturday morning. Have a great weekend!! I’m cracking open my can o’pumpkin today!! Yum!!
I had overnight oats yesterday and so wished I had some leftover pumpkin to throw in…yum! yum!
This bowl of oats may be my idea bowl – especially with that Biscoff on top! Have a great day!
what a great way to start the morning!!!
have a fun day Kath!
Your first picture reminded me of a [super corny] joke I know.
What do you get if you divide the circumference of a pumpkin by its diameter?
Pumpkin pi!
Hah.
Sounds like you are off to a great start to a great day! I hope you have an incredible weekend!
Great way to start your morning! I am having pumpkin spice coffee from trader joes! Just cannot get enough pumpkin! Have a fabulous day!
I’ll have to try your pumpkin overnight oats combo – looks fantastic! And I agree, these are the beautiful fall days that I love so so much!
HAHA! I love the “pumpkin pi”
Have a wonderful Saturday and enjoy your time with Anne!
those oats look good! I made myself pumpkin yogurt this morning! Half greek yogurt and half pumpkin, with some cereal thrown in! Can’t get enough!
You should roast up the pumpkin.. I didn’t think it would be anything special but it was amzinggg!!
I miss Michael Scott.
And I agree you should make Dorie greenspan’s stuffed pumpkin recipe!!!
What kind of coconut tea do you drink? I have been on the look out for some and haven’t been able to find any!
It’s one I ordered from Adagio teas
There’s nothing better than the perfect fall day! Here in Alberta (Canada) it tends to go straight from summer to winter it seems, but we’ve actually had a fall this year! I love it.
The math geek in my loves the shout out to pi on the pumpkin
Have a great day!
Agreed! That definitely made me giggle a little.
I have never been to the farmer’s market where we live, but would like to go when it opens up again.

Oh gosh. Coconut tea. That sounds so nice.
I love the nerdy pumpkin pie picture. It made my morning. Glad you finally got to the farmers market!
Ha…you are clever!
And, I miss Michael Scott too.
Have a beautiful day, Kath!
I have Pi memorized to the 9th digit (it was an extra credit assignment in high school), so the reference on your pumpkin made me giggle.
Pumpkin Pi, lol. Funny!
Ahahahah THAT’S WHAT HEEEE SAID!
I love the oats! Such a good use of pumpkin. Have a great Saturday!
I didn’t get to go to the farmer’s market either all summer because I worked every Saturday!
I’m so glad I can go now that I’m back at school!
Love your overnight oats!
I love how all of your dishes and linens match today. I’m a bit obsessed with matching…
Also, Pumpkin Pi(e) is cute. I plan on sharing this image with friends and family. Thanks for the laugh!
Your pumpkin breakfast looks so good! I love the clusters and biscoff on top.
I am loving these fall temps for running too. Easily my favorite time of year!
love killing two birds with one stone and exercising/running (literally!) errands at the same time. breakfast looks delicious and it sounds like you have a great little saturday planned. enjoy!
TWHS needs to catch on more!
Your overnight oats look delish! I just have to tell you that I stopped in the Great Harvest in my neighborhood-in Carmel, Indiana-and had the veggie sandwich on Dakota bread. It was probably the freshest veggie sandwich I’ve ever had. Also, the new owner here, Jerry Lecy, mentioned that he helped with training out west with you and Matt!
Yeah!! Tell Jerry we said hello
what does twhs mean?
“that’s what he said” – kind of a dirty joke!
had to google twhs
Haha, the gourd + TWSS comment made me snicker!
I need to make pumpkin overnight oats! I have haven’t yet this fall!
I am sad about not going to our farmer’s market this year too.
Maybe I’ll stop by next week before it’s too late!
How do you incorporate the Greek yogurt into the oats? I watched your youtube about milk + water + banana + oats and have yet to try it but am never sure with your yummy looking breakfasts at which point to incorporate which ingredient. Do you mix it into the oats while it’s still on the burner? That’s like the best of both world!
Also i actually for the first time ever just clicked on your banner ad – and entered for a free trip to Greece through Fage (we just got back from our honeymoon there and would die to go back) – if we win I’ll be sure to drop you a thank you
These were actually overnight oats -which are soaked in milk and yogurt overnight and never cooked. I don’t cook yogurt – it separates!
Right after I posted, I went into your oatmeal tab and learned alll about overnight oats – fascinating. Thanks!
Love the TWHS comment. My husband and I are big Office fans and we say “that’s what she said” all the time. Our 4 year old son started saying it months ago and the a lot of the time he says it at appropriate times. I’m sad that the farmer’s market season is coming to a close. I think our Sunday one is still going on so I was just thinking that I need to try and make it tomorrow, but I’d also like to go apple picking because it’s the last weekend at one of the orchards. I want fall to stay forever, no W-word season for awhile!
hahah It took me a while to get the pumpkin PI thing – <3 it!
hey Kath! wondering when you put your morning bowl of deliciousness together, what you are shooting for, what you are thinking in terms of carbs/proteins/dairy?
I am trying to make your oat concoction in the morning & have been adding chia seeds, sunflower butter, dollop of jam. But i am always wondering, “should i do more chia seeds? should i do a shot of hemp protein powder” for more protein? Just wondering how you think when you put your plates/bowls together.
Thank you for the education
-E!
Erika,
I don’t aim for a number of grams or calories of any of those – I just make sure to include them near to their serving sizes. So for carbs it’s either 1/3 cup oats plus granola/muffin or 1/2 cup oats, which is a serving. For dairy, it’s usually 1/3 cup milk in my oats or maybe 2/3 cup dairy in overnight oats or 1 cup yogurt. Just depends on what I’m having. And fats almost always come from nut butters. I stick to 1/2 -1 tbsp chia seeds.
