Another delish Marsh Harbor brex! I made some more microwave banana rolled oats for our dreary day topped with fresh berries, granola and some of that freshly ground almond butter from the co-op yesterday.
There’s that almond butter under there!
Coffee. For food + beverage pairing.

Megan (The Runner's Kitchen) says
Your friend’s pastry doesn’t look very filling, but at least there’s some fruit alongside it. I think a doughnut or pastry for breakfast is A-OK every once in awhile. It makes things feel like vacation!
Happy New Year 🙂
Carolyn says
Doughnuts are the devil! Love them! 🙂
Melissa says

Kath says
Back to Dillon where Great Harvest is.
Angie says

Morgan @ Life After Bagels says
I’ve only been reading your blog since August so some of that stuff I didn’t even know about. Man you had the busiest year and it sounds like it’s just going to keep going – very exciting!
Paula says
Thank You for all that you put into this blog! I love stopping by your blog! You will do great on the exam! 😉
Heather @ Health, Happiness, and Hope says
Such a fabulous year Kath! It’s always amazing to go back and realize how much we’ve accomplished. 🙂 Happy New Year’s Eve!
Erin says
Love the comparison of your breakfast with the pastry. 😉
Jil says
A great year; that’s one thing I love about blogging…the ability to go back and see what you were doing … a week, month..YEAR..ago (I’m not there yet, but soon enough). The fruit looks delicoous and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Mama Pea says
My mom always pulls what your inn friend does. “And now here’s what NOT to eat.” She thinks she’s so funny. I think deep down she wants her own blog. She also tries to say “That’s what she said,” but she puts the emphasis on the wrong words, so it always comes out, “That’s what she SAID.” instead of “That’s what SHE said.” It’s very much like Christopher Walken.
Allison K. says
Happy New Year! What a great year!
Runeatrepeat says
I have to read your Africa posts again. I dream to go there and loved the posts 🙂
Lily @ Lily's Health Pad says
Looks like it was a good year for you! I enjoyed reading about it.
Cait (Cait's Plate) says
Haha – the amount you accomplish in a year makes my year look shameful!
I can’t wait to see what 2010 has in store for KathEats!! 😀
Lauren @ Eater not a runner says
What an exciting year! Hope 2010 is even better 🙂
K says
Happy NYE!! You guys have a lot of excitement coming up 🙂

Kristen @ Change of Pace says
Happy New Year Kath!!!
Frogs and [email protected] Paris Food Blog says
hi there! still addicted to your blog! a quick question: why almond butter? is it for taste or for nutrition? have you tried other nut butters (i.e cashew butter)? are almonds healthier than peanuts?
i need all the vicarious nut butter experience i can get because i live in France and all we have here is overpriced Skippy. et ça me fait triste.
Kath says
It’s all about the taste!
Kristi says
I’ve enjoyed reading your adventures this year, Kath! Wishing you and Matt a happy and healthy 2010!

Julie says
Hi Kath,
I’m a new visitor– Rod Hyson’s wife. Wish I could have been there at The Marsh Harbour. Rod told me what a wonderful and interesting family you all are. I love the photographs— Christmas ones, and all the others. You definitely have a talent. Would love to hear some comments about how you get the photographs— lighting, composition etc. Have a great new year and I look forward to meeting you on Bald Head Island.
Julie
Kath says
Hi Julie! Thanks for stopping by. We’ve had such a lovely vacation here at the Inn. Wish we could have met you during our stay. Thanks for the photography compliments – it’s all about the DSLR camera, as much natural light as possible, my Canon 50mm lens (see the Q+A page for more on that). I’d love to give you a lesson in person sometime 🙂
Sara says
The RD exam is not exactly challenging. It is designed to test entry level competence. The fail rate is really low.
Christine says
Best of luck in 2010. I too just discovered your blog this summer and it has become a daily read and inspired me to eat healthier 🙂
Jenna says
Great year kath!!
Kelly says
I love your blog and just wanted to say Happy 2010!! This is the first time I have posted a comment but I have been a faithful reader! LOVE IT!
