Cause You’re Hot Then You’re Cold

The weeks are zooming by and we’re only one week away from Saint Patties Day π 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 π¦ Well no more, next week I party! π
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!
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 π
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.
This was the cold part of my day π
After a delicious breakfast I was ready for the gym π
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 π 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 π 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 π 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!!! π
- Do you like seeing more personal pictures or more foodie pics?

14. Jenny | 03/10/2011 at 10:48 am
I could hardly taste the pudding π¦ So maybe more than a serving is needed.
15. BrittFit | 03/09/2011 at 9:02 pm

16. Laury @thefitnessdish | 03/09/2011 at 9:38 pm

17. Jessica @ Dishin' About Nutrition | 03/09/2011 at 10:44 pm
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… :/)
18. Jenny | 03/10/2011 at 2:03 pm
How much fun! I love parades!
19. Tara | 03/09/2011 at 10:54 pm

22. Sophia @ Raven Waves | 03/10/2011 at 12:45 am
Love seeing pics of you!! The food pics are great too, but I think personal pics makes the blog so much more relatable π
23. whatkateiscooking | 03/10/2011 at 12:47 am
I like seeing both π Both of those oat combos look so good- pumpkin and banana are awesome together!
24. Maryann (The Balanced Bean) | 03/10/2011 at 1:20 am

Thanks so much for your comment on my blog!! I love your blog all ready! π
Love all that oatmeal! And what beautiful pictures of you and your loved ones! So far, I like seeing both π
29. Brittany (A Healthy Slice of Life) | 03/10/2011 at 9:36 am
I like a mixture- it’s fun to see personal pics because it let’s us get to know YOU, which is good π But who doesn’t like looking at food, too?
30. simplynutritiouskate | 03/10/2011 at 10:09 am
I love food, I would say personal but your food looks too amazing to not post!
31. thefitacademic | 03/10/2011 at 12:47 pm
wow. totally jealous of your weight lifting ability! I’m working on building my upper body (arm,back,chest) strength currently & it is TOUGH for me!
32. Jenny | 03/10/2011 at 2:06 pm
It was tough for me too at the beginning
33. Kayla | 03/10/2011 at 1:37 pm
I love a good balance of foodie and personal pics! That bake looks delicious, I really want to make an oatmeal bake soon!
34. Jenny | 03/11/2011 at 3:27 pm
Do it, it’s delicious!
35. fashionfitnessfoodie | 03/10/2011 at 1:58 pm
I love a mix of pictures of people and food!! I have that plaid shirt you are wearing π
36. Kelsey @ Snacking Squirrel | 03/10/2011 at 2:04 pm
HOLY CRAP! Can i dive into that breakfast bake? that looks incredible!!! β€
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!)
xoxo
37. Sere | 03/10/2011 at 4:33 pm
Both food and people!
mmm I never post people pictures, I think I should begin =)
38. Kristie | 03/10/2011 at 4:44 pm
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!
39. Mary @ Bites and Bliss | 03/10/2011 at 6:14 pm
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!

44. Kelsey @ Clean Teen Kelsey | 03/10/2011 at 11:28 pm
Way to go on the new PR! So great. π
I bet your oatmeal bake was excellent. I go back and forth between cooked oats, bakes and overnight oats. All are fabulous. π
45. IHeartVegetables | 03/11/2011 at 9:30 am
Oh man, shortbread cookies on OOIAJ?! Um, hand it over, girly!!! That looks so amazingly tasty.
Oh and thanks for getting Katy Perry stuck in my head π
46. TheNoviceNosher | 03/11/2011 at 11:08 am
Thank you for subscribing! I’m loving your blog, and it’s great to see another FL girl in the foodie blogosphere! Plus, I need to try that breakfast bake myself first thing tomorrow. YUM.
47. chrysta | 03/11/2011 at 11:54 am

48. TheSceneFromMe | 03/11/2011 at 3:00 pm
I love personal pictures! I love to see them, show them and be in them though π
Of course I love food fotos too so I can get new ideas to eat!
