Loosen Your Belt!

Hello there fluffy pumpkin scuffin!

IMG_6416 (640x427)

Last night I made a date with this Great Harvest Pumpkin Cream Cheese scuffin that Matt [finally!] brought home for me.

IMG_6433 (640x427)

I ate about half of him this morning [and they’re bigger than they look] – 1/4 directly into my mouth and 1/4 crumbled on a yogurt bowl 🙂

IMG_6431 (640x427)

  • 1 container of Oikos
  • ~1/3 cup canned pumpkin
  • Cinnamon
  • Half banana
  • 1 tbsp flax
  • ~2 tbsp Mix My Granola
  • Drizzle Maranatha AB

IMG_6423 (640x427) 

Yogurt is so filling! I had to loosen the belt…..on my bathrobe!

IMG_6425 (640x427)

For my warm beverage of the day, I tried the second sample pack from San Marco Coffee 

Banana Foster

IMG_6414 (640x427)

I really wish I could say this was awesome, but it kind of made my stomach turn. I’m not a big fan of banana flavoring and wasn’t really thinking about that when I ordered the flavor. And I also found it to be really light – almost like tea. I’ll be sticking with the Grog from here on out.

Good Bite For Charity

The GoodBite + Quaker’s Awaken Your Senses contest second round ends on Friday. Just between us, the KERF "Bridal Sweet" video has 2,000 views – compared to about 300 on the others. I think we have a chance! Normally I wouldn’t pressure for votes, but since this is for $10,000 for hungry children, I think it’s worth a little begging

:mrgreen: this !

Click this image and vote with the green thumb!

I’ve got some stuff to do, including yoga and a run, and we have a real estate agent coming over at 1PM to give us some advice on the timing of putting our house on the market.

Currently sipping a new cup of coffee, which isn’t good either. I think I’ve lost my taste or something!

    I was wondering when you said banana’s foster coffee. Doesn’t really scream coffee to me! I need to find some quality coffee, though. We have a grinder, but I rarely use it!

    Kath~ I posted yesterday and you suggested I look at my sleep/carbs. I do sleep about 7 hours per night. Any more, and I’d have to give my 1 hour of TV each night! 🙁 I do eat tons of whole grains. I am going to try more wg’s in my afternoon snack and see if I feel better. Thanks for responding.

    I love “The Grog” in my French Press. It’s distributed by Boston Stoker in my area! Enjoy!

    One last thing (I am not suggesting anything…it’s just funny). I lost my taste for coffee three years ago…just could not drink a cup to save my life. Turned out I was preggers! 🙂

    I love the idea of a scuffin! Best of both worlds…
    I don’t drink coffee but I would generally agree that I don’t like banana flavoring. I love bananas, but the flavoring always reminds me of medicine.

    Ha, I have to do that (loosen the bathrobe belt) when I have a hearty bowl of oatmeal in the morning. Not so much with the yogurt though…maybe becaue I don’t add nut butter to my yogurt messes (I don’t like the consistency of the combo, so I just throw in some flax for healthy fat and call it a day)

    Funky Lady,
    Tisk, tisk – bump that 7 to 8 and see what happens!

    Mama Pea,
    Request them!! Tell them to “check the bread board for the recipes.”

    Cates,
    We’re using the one who sold us our house. Otherwise, ask friends for recommendations.

    Ozlem,
    If HT was my favorite, that was ages ago!! The PB that I bought did not have trans-fats – it was just peanuts and salt. I’m not sure which kind you got??
