My Oprah Face

Second time is just as sweet…

IMG_7564-2Blog

Look for it…

IMG_7566-2Blog

I wrote two recipes for O Magazine’s October issue – pumpkin recipes!

IMG_7565-2Blog

October issue. Go read it in the grocery store line!

***

So excited to have a gym buddy!! Sara (who is renting our old house) and I have been meeting for classes all week. We were going to run today but it’s raining 🙁 So we met for a yoga class instead.

The class was really basic, really slow and really cold! A bit disappointing. No music. No flow. I was too cold to even get a good stretch (and I had on long pants!) I don’t mind slow yoga classes – I would just really like the room to be at least warm if I’m not going to be building heat by movement.

I got home around 1:30 and a had a few Cville Clusters for an appetizer while I showered.

IMG_7585-2Blog

Lunch was a leftover No Bull burger topped with K+M and some cheese, plus cabbage leftovers – with more cheese and a drizzle of honey! <—that was good but I’m done with cabbage till next year thankyouverymuch.

IMG_7589-2Blog

Corn joined the party too

IMG_7590-2BlogIMG_7587-2Blog

IMG_7582-2Blog

Another cluster for dessert! So good. Like cookies!

    I know what you mean about cold yoga classes…I go to one on my lunch break once a week, and I have to put on the layers both top and bottom to get adequately warmed up…the teacher always tries to use the heater, but people in the class complain that it’s too warm! (I call shenanigans) bot oh well, can’t win ’em all 🙂

          …except that yoga is actually not “exercise”, it is intended to be a spiritual practice and not just about getting sweaty and toning your abs. There are plenty of yoga studios that have more exercise-like classes, which is fine, but it’s important to remember that that is not actually the point.

            I agree with you generally speaking…except this class is pretty amateur and at a gym…I have taken wonderful spritually-based classes with the chants and meditation, etc and we were definitely encouraged to put on layers and be comfortable for that part. 😉

    Not trying to be overly critical here, but I was a bit disappointed that you would use a boxed pancake mix in this recipe. Surely you could have been more creative than that, given the fact that you and your husband own a bakery and he is clearly an exceptional baker? I’m sure he could have helped you with a delicious pancake recipe of your own. And, as a proponent of “real food”, I think it would have made more sense for you to encourage a handmade recipe rather than pushing people to boxed ingredients. Just my two cents.

      September 26, 2011 at 1:30 pm

      Savvy Julie once posted about how she used boxed pancake mix, and she was told she’d be a bad mother because of it. I agree with Greta though… if it’s going in a magazine, I’d think using boxed pancake mix would be frowned upon.

      Reply
    • KathEats says

      September 26, 2011 at 1:36 pm

      Point noted. I think on the flip side most busy women don’t have time to make pancakes from scratch, so magazines are often looking for quick and easy ways to tweak something basic

      Reply
    • Lisa says

      September 26, 2011 at 3:35 pm

      No wayy would I even attempt the recipe if it required me to make my own mix. Even if its the most simple thing ever. I think that in order for the recipe to be practical, Kath felt the need to simplify it. When youre a freelance writer, you need to modify your recipes for the target audience.

      • Mandy A says

        September 27, 2011 at 9:07 am

        Agreed. Before I had my daughter, I thought I would be the mom making everything she put in her mouth from start to finish. Reality hit and that just isn’t always possible. I try to make it happen as much as I can but some times having something quick is so helpful!
