Cause You’re Hot Then You’re Cold

03/09/2011 at 1:48 pm 48 comments

The weeks are zooming by and we’re only one week away from Saint Patties Day πŸ™‚ I’ve never celebrated any of these holidays because when I was going to school full time every hour of the day was spend studying. Cinco de Mayo was consumed by finals 😦 Well no more, next week I party! πŸ˜€

Yesterday and today have really just been lazy days, I haven’t done much and this is not good. I need to buckle down and get serious about the P.A entrance exam, it’s no joke and if I don’t get accepted I’d have to wait another year.

I decided to get creative yesterday with breakfast because I still have leftover pumpkin and nanners to use up. Well it wasn’t too creative because I still had my oats lol but they were baked!

Breakfast Bake

Pumpkin and nanners do make a great pairing! I copied the same recipe from my baked oatmeal but added pumpkin to the mixture.Β  It was hearty and really delicious. This was the hot

Today on the other hand I had a craving for something a bit colder, hence my overnight oats πŸ™‚

 

OOIAJ

Made last night with: 33g oats, 1/4 cup milk, 8g chia seeds,

1 serving of sugar free cheesecake instant pudding, 1/4 nanner,

1/3 cup chopped strawberries, and a dash of cinnamon.

In the morning topped with: peanuts, cinnamon swirl pb, and 1/2 pack

of 100 calorie shortbread cookies.

Yay for toppings!!

This was the cold part of my day πŸ™‚

After a delicious breakfast I was ready for the gym πŸ˜€

My workout today:

Deadlifts: 157.50lbs (new PR) !!

Arnold Presses: 20lbs on each arm

Cable crunches & leg raises to finish

Short and progressive, just how I like it.

On a different topic, I’ve been noticing that most bloggers put up pictures of themselves and I normally post more food pictures. So I’ve decided to show you some of the people that mean a lot to me.

That’s me in the back πŸ˜‰ with my bf. The very sexy looking girl in the front is his sister (the chicken sammie master), with her most awesome husband who bought me my first Menchies πŸ˜€ I love them all so much and it makes me so happy to call them family.

This was last year celebrating my boyfriend’s birthday at the Miami Improv πŸ™‚ Good times and more to come since his birthday is already a month away!

It’s great to have caring and loving people in your life.

Hope everyone is having a great Wednesday!!! πŸ˜€

  • Do you like seeing more personal pictures or more foodie pics?

      I could hardly taste the pudding 😦 So maybe more than a serving is needed.

    I’m so excited for St. Patty’s day! It’s my first St. Patty’s day in Chicago and apparently it’s a big deal here!! They die the river bright green and there’s a huge parade and all kinds of stuff! I was like you, I was in school last year and didn’t celebrate really so I’m super pumped for this weekend (even though working int he real world is so much more demanding… :/)

    I like a mixture- it’s fun to see personal pics because it let’s us get to know YOU, which is good πŸ™‚ But who doesn’t like looking at food, too?

    i like seeing both personal and food pics- its a nice balance and sort of gives you a choice on what you are feeling that day (whether u wanna show pics of urself and life or just food..or both!)

    I like a balance of both peeps and eats for sure. Even though I don’t do it… I think I’m people photograph phobic, I rarely pull out the camera around people these days. I need to change that!

    You guys are cuties!

    Personal pictures always win over foodie ones for me but they’re both great to have! And I just realized how much school actually does overlap with holidays like Mardi Gras and what not…and not just overlapping, but with midterms and finals, too!

    I bet your oatmeal bake was excellent. I go back and forth between cooked oats, bakes and overnight oats. All are fabulous. πŸ™‚
