gimme the juice!
/Today I woke up on the wrong side of the bed. I felt like I had a hangover, but there was no alcohol consumed the night before. I’ve been eating well + drinking enough water, but just stretching myself a little thin. Pretty common around here, but never a good thing! I’m trying to take it easier today and even got in a much needed nap.
I did something different for breakfast today.
I made oatmeal! It’s been awhile.
This bowl was super tasty, but I’ve realized I’m not a big fan of chia seeds cooked into oats. It’s a little too gummy for me!
In the bowl:
- 1/3c rounded oats
- 1 1/4c almond milk + water
- 1 small banana
- 1T chia seeds
- 1t cinnamon
- 1t vanilla
- a lot of frozen blueberries
Piled on top:
- chocolate chip cookie dough almond butter
- almonds
- Love Grown Foods simply oats granola
- toasted coconut
Here is a sneak peak of the new wood color!! Ignore the yellow glow coming from the back of the photo. There is a big yellow compressor in the closet, casting a lovely glow. ;)
I love how every single wood strip looks different!! The color is nice + light, which will also help hide scratches. SO EXCITED!
After my nap, I realized I needed a pick me up. I didn’t want to slurp down coffee, because I felt like that might make me feel worse. So, it was time to bust out the juicer. I haven’t been juicing or smoothie-ing lately at all, and I really need to get back into it.
This was not the tastiest of juices, by any means.
But it was exactly what I needed. I’m actually feeling much more alert and not as foggy in the head!
I have literally had to stop this post 4 times because of ordering related phone calls. Eek!
Off to walk the dogs and soak up some sun! Yesterday we got a dusting of snow, but today it’s in the 50’s and tomorrow in the 60’s!
