I Heart Coffee

And it hearts me!!! Check out the love note it left me in its froth –

Slept until 8:30 again and had crazy dreams – including a rubber arm that I had to move in my sleep. I think my every blood cell in my body had left my arm!

I came down and knew it was a day for a big bowl of oats – and I was starving for some!

  • 1/3 cup oats, soy milk, water
  • Half banana
  • Pinch salt
  • Splash vanilla
  • 1/2 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 dried fig, 1 dried date
  • Pumpkin butter
  • Maranatha AB
  • Toasty almonds
  • Mix My Granola

Ohhhhhh yeaaaaahhhh

this !

Last night we were full up until bedtime from our late lunch/early dinner pizza fest, so we decided to just stay in and hydrate by the tele. The only place I could envision us going was out for dessert, so I made my own little dessert cafe at home.

Using ganache from last year’s birthday!! There was freezer burn on top, but underneath – oh my – it was fresh and rich as ever!

I made a little bowl of ice cream with Living Harvest Tempt Chocolate Biscotti, ganache and cacao nibs. The Tempt has not grown on me. I just wanted some Breyers Vanilla Bean. It just doesn’t taste like real ice cream

I’m supposed to meet Caitlin for a greenway run at 11 and then today is totally a ME day. I’m going to go shopping this afternoon! I’ve accumulated all the "it’s your birthday month" coupons from my favorite stores :mrgreen:

    Love the heart in your coffee! I love the coupons you get from stores in your birthday month – my birthday is next month and I can’t wait for the coupons to start arriving.

    Enjoy your “me” day – I love those to recharge your batteries!

    I am loving the coffee mug you have in the photos there. Do you know if there is a larger version? I love the shape, colors, and it would look very nice on my desk!

    The pictures are stunning, I wish I could get as good with my humble camera phone!

    Aww, that coffee heart is so sweet! 🙂 Ha, I love that you get a whole month for your b-day. Mine’s right after Christmas, so it’s pretty negligible 😛

    The heart in your coffee is so cute! And I know what you mean about the Tempt…nothing beats real ice cream, though your bowl looks delish! Enjoy your day shopping!

    🙂 Have fun! Sorry couldn’t make the run this morning! It would’ve taken me an hour to get there, and I was in the middle of egg-making haha. Hope you have a good run and enjoy your birthday shopping. Will you be showing us what you get??? 🙂

    It stinks when you expect something to taste like one thing and it really doesn’t. Hopefully you can get something yummy today on your shopping trip. Get some good stuff 🙂

    Hahaha my birthday was the 7th and I used like 15 coupons. Free stuff on your birthday (well, on ANY day!) is the best.

    I LOVE that Tempt ice cream!! I thought the chocolate biscotti was delicious. Yes, it’s different. But I love how creamy it is 🙂 Send it my way!!

    Hey Kath! Have recently become a BIG fan of your blog! It’s so inspiring! Thanks to you, I cooked spaghetti squash for the first time ever last weekend! Also, have been eating “overnight oats” for the past week for breakfast. SO good and a great morning time-saver!! Can’t wait to try more of your recipes.
    Another grateful fan,
    Lisa

    Jason,
    I don’t know, but you could try the Dean + Deluca website?

    {CBD},
    Thanks and welcome!

    Anna,
    A lot of the big stores do – LOFT, Old Navy, Banana. It might be because I have a card with them….
