April 16, 2011

I did not make my bed

Because I am going to get back in it in and read! I started Anita Shreve’s Resistance last night. Good so far!!

IMG_6870Blog

It’s rather wet outside

IMG_6871Blog

I’ve also been shopping for commercial trash cans for the bakery. Not what I should be doing on a cozy Saturday morning!

IMG_6874Blog

Breakfast was a yogurt bowl full of plain yogurt, cubes of GH Cinnamon Chip bread, toasted buckwheat, chia seeds (a ground kind I was sent as a sample and do not prefer!), GH Jam, banana and pretzel peanut butter.

IMG_6861BlogIMG_6865Blog

That would be Flying Squirrel PB – Pretzel Pizazz. Nothing is more satisfying than the crunch of a pretzel!!

IMG_6855Blog

Peppermint tea

    What does the ground chia seed taste like? Similar to ground flax? I love the crunch of the whole chia seed.

    Question: I’ve been dying to try your dough boy smoothie, but I lack a fancy powerful blender. Would it work in a small-ish food processor?

    Reply
    • KathEats says

      April 16, 2011 at 9:31 am

      Absolutely. It’s just overnight oats, blended up. You could even partially blend and still get a good doughy taste. So if you have something that blends, yes it will work

    I too am enjoying a comforting bowl of oats and tea on this rainy Saturday in the midwest I’m longing for an absorbing (non-fiction!) read, but can’t seem to find one in my ‘to read’ line-up that captures my attention. I do have a 50% off B+N discount coupon burning a hole in pocket though…Please do let us know how you like Resistence.

    Too bad about the ground chia seeds—sounds one of those ideas that’s awesome on paper but just doesn’t quit work in real life.
