Snow White

Even though it snowed huge flakes for hours last night, looks like 1” was all that stuck around to play

IMG_9387

And the clouds have cleared to reveal a golden sunrise!

IMG_9388

IMG_9381

Breakfast was snowy white in celebration of our dusting

IMG_9375

I had decided on yogurt, oats, granola, banana mixture, but I decided that would all be much more fun blended up in the Vita-mix and served soup style. I love the texture of frothed blended things.

IMG_9372

IMG_9384

The Mix

Base

1 banana

1/3 cup oats

1 cup Organic Valley drinkable yogurt

1 tbsp chia seeds (the vanilla beany flecks!)

Toppings

Ambrosial Orange Cran Granola (so chewy!)

Coconut

IMG_9377

Super strong!

I’m spending some time with busy bee Faith this morning – we have a yoga date. And then working through mid-day and ending the day with Karen.

Last night I worked on a handful of blog things – edited my theme a little (no more double tags!), added LinkWithin widget (I’m having so much fun looking at my old posts!) and also tweaked the header. I’m not sure if it will stay that way yet, but it’s a visual multiday test.

I also added a Healthy Travel section to the bottom of the travel page recapping our Montana hotel breakfasts + dinners.

IMG_8507Blog_thumb

And also created a Home Neat Home page!

    Here’s a little saying I learned from some of my friends from the Canadian maritime provinces (that get a LOT of snow) and it seems to hold true: “Big snow, little snow; little snow, BIG snow.” So, if there are big flakes, there will be little snow that sticks around but if the snow falling looks “little” there will be a lot of snow.

    Your breakfast looks delicious 🙂

    Kath, the new font looks regal and I like it. Maybe just about 1/6 smaller to allow for ‘white space’ even though it is wood grain. Kiran’s header looked very nice too–sorry to say I liked her version over the two you proposed. It was thoughtful of her to take the time to tweek it for you. Let’s face it, you could do your blog with a plain simple font typed KERF or no header at all…people will still read. I think it just makes people feel good to try to be helpful. You have a wonderful blog and are very much appreciated for your daily inspiration.

    And i am not afraid to toss that huge bottle of conditioner from 2 yrs ago with 2 uses left in it and de clutter bottles, samples, old products, etc that just are never gonna get used again. Which those things can take over your bathroom storage…in a hurry!

    This is a pretty random question, but when you said you added a “Healthy Travel Section” this question immediately popped into my head. How do you travel with food that you bring yourself. I know I have seen on your blog and a few others where you bring a snack that is not individually wrapped and comes from your home. How do you make it through security in an airport without them questioning you?
    The next time I will be flying is in March and I’d really like to know how to bring my own snacks and what not that are not pre-wrapped.

    Thank you!

      As long as it’s not a liquid, I’ve never had a problem bringing food with me.

      I bring food with me all the time – just not liquids. Things that hold up are better, which is to say not bananas! I also take my empty refillable water bottle, empty og course.

    Kath,

    I’m so sorry because you probably get this question all the time, but can you tell me where you got your silverware (especially the spoons you’re always photographing with your breakfasts)? I’m absolutely in love with it!

    Thanks!
