short + sweet

I LOVED reading about all of your creepy gym encounters!!  I knew I wasn’t the only one with stories :)  Today was quite busy and tiring.  I woke up every 15min for about 2hrs before I had to get up.  Don’t you hate that??

I was in a rush this morning to make oats, get to the farmers market, then head to work.

Oats rocked.

Muffin Topped Oats

Topped with

Super creaminess!!  These muffins are SO good.  I can’t wait to perfect them so they hold together a little better.  The flavor rocks.

I had to get my weekly fresh eggs.  Once you start with this fresh egg habit…it’s hard to revert back.

Today was exciting.  I was in a hurry but browsed by and saw some GREEN things popping up!!  There were a lot of micro greens and also this gorgeous asparagus.  It is local + organic and I’m pretty excited about it.

Asparagus takes around 3 YEARS to harvest!  Isn’t that crazy??  I just learned all about growing asparagus in the book I’m reading, Animal Vegetable Miracle.  Anyone read this yet?  The woman at the market said they use a drip irrigation system and it took 4yrs for this to start popping up!  I’m going to savor it.  I love being able to support the local farmers that take so much time to grow such delicious, pure food.
