I *THINK* life has slowed down a bit. I feel more caught up on things and like I can enjoy my evenings and mornings again. 5.5 weeks to go!
Today’s Blissful Breakfast: OIAJ!
OIABBJ
- Heaping 1/3 cup Great Harvest Cinnamon Raisin oat mix
- 1/3 cup water, milk

- 1/2 tbsp chia seeds
- Cinnamon, vanilla, pinch salt
- 1 small hunk of Great Harvest Blueberry Bran Muffin

Spring Blend – all caf. Yesterday I got a coffee headache 🙁
Voskos Winners!
I put my hand on the scroll wheel, close my eyes and wiggle it all around and put my curser on:

Off to suck of some of the deal rolly pollys around my house. Where do they come from!?
Peace!
Freya @ Brit Chick Runs says
Only 5.5 more weeks! Does that mean you’re then fully qualified, or will it just be another rotation? Either way, 5.5 weeks sounds like a nice countdown 😀 it’ll fly by!
Have a great day 🙂
Kath says
5.5 and I’m DONE!!!!
But then I will have to sit for the exam sometime late summer/early fall so I have more studying to do.
Samantha Angela @ Bikini Birthday says
So close! It’s the final stretch!
kate says
5 1/2 weeks will be done in no time! Hang in there! Congrats to the winners, Voskos rocks!

That breakfast looks so good. Is that the Bob’s spice n nice hot cereal that you had, are is it a different one?
Kath says
No, Great Harvest
Beth @ Beth's Journey to Thin says
OIAJ is so good – its too bad you have to wait for the nutbutter jar to be mostly empty! Otherwise I’d have them almost daily. 😉
Sarena (The Non-Dairy Queen) says
I have not had Barney Butter in a while…how I miss thee. I need to find some soon! I recommended almond butter to a friend and she is now hooked! We now have another one on our side!!! Have a great day!
Heather (www.runningwithsass.com) says
you seem to have a lot of bug problems lol! between the roaches and rolly pollys!
Mary @ Bites and Bliss says
only 5 1/2 weeks!! so close- woohoo!!!
Has your house ever been taken over by lady bugs? That’s the problem we have down here.
Good luck getting all the roly polies 🙂
Jessica @ How Sweet says
Not that much longer! You can do it!

Hannah says
Yum, I have just stopped myself from scraping out my White Chocolate Wonderful PB&Co jar with a spoon, so that I can FINALLY try this OIAJ business. Looking forward to breakfast tomorrow 🙂
Lindsay @ Summit Sandwiches says
I hope that you and Matt take a nice vacation (or mini-vacation) once you’re done with this 5.5 week craziness. You deserve it!
Simply Life says
hope you’re able to take a minute to slow down and relax…
Estela @ Weekly Bite says
Wow, time sure is flying by!!!

Umm yeah.. that may just be my ideal breakfast. Barney Butter is my LOVE! With a blueberry muffin… oh yes, please!
[email protected] says
i am so glad you feel a bit less stressed and caught up 🙂
Kath says
I tried you oatmeal pancake this morning–SO GOOD! I loved it! It turned out HUGE and I didn’t think I could eat it all, but I’m just satisfied right now…must be all the egg whites. Thanks for the recipe!
Stacy says
Congrats on being so close to done. It must feel good!
Lauren says
I got a caffeine headache yesterday, too. I’m really not sure how I get so addicted to coffee. :-/
Heather says
I love to mix muffins in with my breakfast! Such a treat.
Congratulations with being close to finished – the end is in sight!
Erin says
Another delicious breakfast, another Wednesday. It’s a SCORCHER today!
Nikita says
Congrats on being so close- that’s just a little over a month!
I’ve been reading your blog for awhile now and I absolutely adore it! Your healthful but fun approach to eating and cooking is so refreshing and I feel like a learn a lot from reading your blog!
Thank you for doing what you do! You inspire healthy habits and delicious breakfast combos (SIAB, overnight oats, blended banana oats… sooo good!) and I truly look forward to reading your blog each morning!
Kath says
Thanks 🙂
Stacie @ Imperfectly Healthy says
Mmm..your oats combo looks so good! Barney Butter is a fav of mine!
Becca says
I saw a while back you guys are planning a trip to Asheville soon. If you hadn’t heard or read, we were just crowned “Beer City USA.” Thought you guys might be interested in that tid bit of information. Apparently we have something like 10 breweries! Crazy.
Kath says
We’re coming this weekend and plan to check out some of the breweries!
Michelle @ Give Me the Almond Butter says
I am absolutely dying for all of my nut butters to get down to the depths of their jars and just disappear already so I can do OIAJ. I have like 5 nut butter jars open, so its pretty hard when I share time with each of them 😉
Heather (Heather's Dish) says
i seriously love that add muffin to your oats…do you feel like it makes them too soft when you do that (the muffins that is)? or does it just add to the flavor of the oats instead?
Kath says
It doesn’t get to wet or soggy, if that’s what you mean. I mostly keep it on the top too.
lynn (The Actors Diet) says
i loved little roly poly’s – potato bugs, right?! – when i was a kiddie….
Sarah (Running to Slow Things Down) says
In about that much time (a little more), I’ll just be *STARTING* my internship. Craziness! 😀
And I’m sure you’ll do great on the RD exam. How exciting! 😀
Barney Butter Breakfast—that is so perfect. 😀
Hillary [Nutrition Nut on the Run] says
I’m just about to make OIAABJ – must be one of those days : )
Camille says
Those oats look especially amazing this morning!
Kristin (Salty Tooth) says
I feel for your regarding the coffee headache. I’m trying to give up coffee right now and cold turkey just isn’t working for me. Maybe I’ll try the half-caf tomorrow.
