Talk about a beautiful sunrise!
This was the scene as I was walking out of this morning’s super sweaty BodyCombat class.
Unfortunately, the *one morning* that I leave my camera at home is the one day that I could really use it. Go figure? At least I still had my not-so-great camera phone, but the picture really doesn’t do it justice. It was just gorgeous.
I’m looking at it as a positive way to start my day!
*****
Another positive start to my day definitely came in the form of today’s breakfast.
Fantastically festive coffee.
And some egg-cellent eggs.
You know, I’m pretty sure that I have highly underestimated the deliciousness that is the breakfast burrito. Holy moly!
I cooked up an egg scramble with a slice of provolone cheese and some Italian-style diced tomatoes leftover from last night’s soup, along with a little salt, pepper, and dried basil.
I wrapped it up in a LaTortilla Factory wrap, then threw it back into the skillet for a quick minute to lightly brown the edges and seal everything inside.
I also grabbed a Macintosh apple to round out the meal. Delicious!

Later this morning, I have to make a trip to the post office so I can send out my cookie swap cookies.
Three tins heading out to three different bloggers in three different states…mayyyybe they’re headed your way?
I’m also planning on *hopefully* doing a little Cyber Monday Christmas shopping today, too. Here’s a few pretty sweet deals I’ve heard of so far for today:
- Amazon – 25% off shoes if you spend more than $75. (Also feel free to check out the goodies in My Shop!)
- GAP/Banana Republic/Old Navy/Athleta – 30% off on all purchases at these sites. Use code: HUGECYBER at checkout.
- Levi’s – 25% off products with coupon code: THANKS25
- Kohl’s – 20% off with coupon code: CYBER20. As a bonus, receive a $15 Kohl’s Cash Coupon for every $50 you spend.
Alrighty folks, gotta run!
Questions for the Morning:
Will you be partaking in any Cyber Monday shopping today? If you know of any other deals, feel free to spread the word here!
Do you prefer to shop online or in stores?
What foods have you recently underestimated?
Katelyn @ Chef Katelyn says
Recently underestimated: home-brewed coffee. Just got a coffee maker on Saturday, used it for the first time this morning and KIND OF died. Kiss my carafe, sbux.
Hope says
Those eggs look really good! I love the idea of a breakfast burrito. So tasty :)
I would like to partake in some of the Cyber Monday deals. I haven’t seen any that I really want to purchase just yet. Those are some great deals that you posted though. Thanks for that!
briana says
alreadly took advantage of the deal at express 30 percent and free shipping! Love their sweaters!
Erica @ For the Sake of Cake says
The breakfast burrito looks great! I’m making tacos this week, so I know what I’m doing with my leftover tortillas! :-)
Juju@get fit with juju says
Good morning! I love burrito anything, and ur breakfast looks sooo good! Thanks for the cyber Monday deals suggestions! Xoxo =]
Khushboo says
Ive seriously underestimated smoothies…each one I drink makes me more and more obsessed with them. They somehow fill the fro to void in my life :)
faith @ for the health of it says
No cyber Monday for me – I had enough of that mess on Black Friday! I definitely prefer in-store shopping…clothing always looks different in-person, sometimes for the better but sometimes for the worse!
Jenny says
I hope some of those cookies are headed my way!! Sent my cookies out today!
Cute~Ella says
I’m not sure, but I think today we start redeaming Kohl’s Cash. Earning it ended last night best I can tell.
Jess @JessCantCook says
I’m definitely an online shopper, especially around the holidays! Not sure I’ll have a ton of time to shop Cyber Monday deals though, as long as they offer free shipping to me that’s a better deal than braving the stores anyway :)
Shannon says
I will not be partaking in Cyber Monday- I have school all day until 3. :(
I prefer to shop in stores rather than online, mostly because you can try clothing items or shoes in the store and if it doesn’t fit, you can find the right side.
I recently underestimated Saturday night’s Potato Pancakes. They looked really weird at first, but after one bite, I fell in love with them!
Sana says
I am scared to buy clothes online, because what if they don’t fit :(
Lindsey says
I love eggs right now, and recently had my first egg burrito and loved it too!
You reminded me I need to get on my cookies for the swap this week!
Brandi says
Morning! Um….the burrito looks amazing! Much better than the cold overnight oats I had this morning (although they were still fantastic) :)
I love Amazon so I will definitely check them out….. Gonna dig around today to see what else is out there that might have some sales.
I would have to agree with the smoothie comment….. I think I could have one everyday! And there are so many ways you can make them.
Have an awesome day!
Kathryn says
I won’t be taking part in this years Cyber Monday, though I do look forward to it next year.
For clothes and shoes, I need to shop in store. My size varies too much between brands for me to be able to shop online. However, I’d buy toys for the kids, electronics, movies, etc online.
I’d underestimated how yummy a peppermint mocha is from Tully’s. I can’t stand the holiday drinks from Starbucks, but this one is just so addicting.
Andrea @ Andrea Out Loud! says
Im playing catch up from this weekend but happy to see you had a good weekend :)
I much prefer shopping online honestly, and the things I need to buy online unfortunately arent on sale today!! Torrance’s gift in particular!
Mary @ Bites and Bliss says
I’ve been searching for deals for Cyber Monday and haven’t been able to find *really* good ones. They are..but not when being able to find the exact same stuff more of the stores are selling at cheaper discounted prices elsewhere. Maybe I’m just not looking hard enough!
Lena @Fit on the Rocks says
I can buy non-clothing items online, but every single brand of clothing (and even same-brand items) seems to fit me differently, so I’d rather do that in the stores. I think the most underestimated food item I’ve come across lately is brussell sprouts. I’m semi addicted to them now!
TheBloggersBrother says
oh wow, what a glorious and breathtaking sunrise that is
Courtney says
Bite me…
;)
Cat @Breakfast to Bed says
I sort of got some ridiculously good deals at Bluefly and ModCloth. So excited.
Brigitt says
I made my cookie swap cookies yesterday too! Sending them off this afternoon!
Jamie aka "Sometimes Healthy" Girl says
I’m with ya! The sky looked gorgeous this morning. I too was a bit upstate in NY and couldn’t believe how beautiful it was. That burrito looks yummy.
I prefer not to online shop because I like that whole instant gratification thing. haha.
Jessica @ The Process of Healing says
I have never participated in Cyber Monday BUT I think I could be down for that!
lauren says
I love breakfast burritos! I’m forever trying to recreate the spinach feta one from sbux. I love the texture of the tortilla they use.
I haven’t done any shopping today, but I got some items checked off my list at Kohls on Friday morning. I got some really great deals on kids clothes for my niece and nephews…I love getting the baby boys button down shirts, they are too cute!
erica says
that is a gorgeous photo!!!
i hope to find some good cybermonday deals!
i love shopping online…no crowds, no searching for parking, and no rummaging!
Marty says
I’d much rather shop online. I try my best to avoid those crowded parking lots and long lines. Just click “add to cart” while sipping on my coffee….much more like it :)
Julie H. of Spinach and Sprinkles says
What a beautiful sunrise this morning! WOW! :) …..Totally worth getting up early and hitting the bodycombat!
Amy says
I’ve been doing quite my share of cybershopping. I ordered Trunutrition protein powder, they have 20% off through today and its really good.
Paula Dorf cosmetics has 30% off sitewide and they have great eyeshadows and lipgloss.
Liz @ Southern Charm says
I’m all about the online shopping! Super easy and less time consuming!
Kristen @ notsodomesticated says
I hope some of those cookies are coming to me!! ;)
I didn’t do any online shopping today b/c I’ve been traveling all day. But I typically don’t buy clothes online, but I will buy books and electronics. :)
