How about some pretty flowers to start off your morning?
I tossed these into my shopping cart at Aldi’s over the weekend because it’s been way too long since I’d had some pretty, fresh flowers in the house. Plus, they were only $3.99…how could I pass that up?
Quick side note before going on…we won our softball game last night and are now into the semi-finals next week. WOO HOO!
Alright, so back to today. I had to run out quick early this morning, but I ended up making a slight detour before heading home.
Funny thing is, I had even put a pot of iced coffee on before leaving this morning, so I knew I had some ready and waiting for me. I guess when the craving strikes…?
Once I did get back home, I whipped up a quick egg, provolone, and raspberry jam English muffin sandwich.
As lopsided as ever.
I should also mention that iced coffee wasn’t the only thing that wound up making their way into my car this morning…
I just can NOT resist these blueberry cake munchkins. They are my kryptonite. I had only asked for two, but somehow ended up with four…what is with me and snagging the extra munchkins all the time??
*****
Just a heads up…for those who may be interested, I just discovered that today is National Orange Creamsicle Day. Perhaps you might want to try making a batch of my Frozen Orange Creamsicle Snacks?
Question for the Morning:
What’s your kryptonite (weakness)?
Lauren @ Chocolate, Cheese and Wine says
Your flowers are gorgeous! Lately my kryptonite has been Heath bars – I cannot get enough!
Ashley @ My Food N Fitness Diaries says
I’m not sure I could resist those babies either! Fortunately we don’t have a DD close to us, otherwise I’d be in trouble. ;)
Alex @ Brain, Body, Because says
One recently opened just down the street from my office…so tempting!
Julie @ Peanut Butter Fingers says
my kryptonite is breyer’s oreo birthday blast ice cream. it is UNREAL. as a fellow ice cream lover, i encourage you to try it ASAP! :)
Courtney says
Hahaha…I saw you blog about that recently! I haven’t tried that one yet…we’re currently finishing up a carton of Blue Bunny Double Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough. Stuff is UNREAL!
Alyssa @ fit and fun in third says
My kryptonite is honey wheat pretzels, chocolate covered pretzels, and roasted veggies! Quite a combination, huh?
Julie H. of Spinach and Sprinkles says
Those do look quite delicious! Consider yourself a lucky lady always snaggin a few extras to enjoy :) …..My kryptonite? A piece of good wedding cake (or cake that my sister makes). I never get the chance to eat a piece of good wedding cake but when it comes around- oh heavens!
Marion says
NUTELLA = KRYPTONITE
Michelle Hunt says
At the moment it’s roasted pumpkin! Though chocolate biscuit cake is quite high up there too!
Emily @ Perfection Isn't Happy says
Chocolate is my weakness, for sure.
Hope @ With A Side Of Hope says
Those flowers are so pretty! :) My kryptonite is most definitely chocolate. I love it.
Jo @ LivingMintGreen says
I want that eggwich! I have a few weaknesses: justin’s maple almond butter, goat cheese, green & blacks white chocolate & fro yo! :D
kim@hungryhealthygirl says
Way to go on the softball game! Oh my, any donut is my kryptonite…..that’s why I completey avoid the donut store {if I don’t, it’s not good}!
Suzanne @ Fit Minded Mom says
What pretty flowers, especially for $3.99!! Next time I am near an Aldi I am going to hit it up to see what all I can find.
I have never had a donut from Dunkin Donuts before. I wonder if that is odd. We don’t have one near us and when I am around one, I never go for the donuts because if we are being honest, they aren’t the best for my waistline.
Steph @ StephSnacks says
Froyo is definitely my kryptonite!
Danica @ It's Progression says
Dark. Chocolate.
gets me every time.
Sarah @ Blonde Bostonian says
I used to work at Dunkin’ when I was in high school and the blueberry donuts/munchkins were my fav! They’re definitely my kryptonite as well. Whenever I see them at a Dunkin’ (which is actually not very often!) I always get a couple too!
Katie @ Talk Less, Say More says
My kryptonite is definitely chocolate or anything sweet. I’m not big on donuts so I’m usually safe there, but cookies, cake, ice cream and I’m done for!
Liz @ IHeartVegetables says
Hey, sometimes you just have a craving, and you gotta go with it ;)
Allison @ Running Through Red Lights says
Oh man, I have an entire list of kryptonite! Starbucks Red Velvet Whoopie Pies, dark chocolate, Swedish Fish, Skittles in the purple bag, and Vanilla Coke.
Katie says
My kryptonite is probably Nutella or dark chocolate. Perhaps I should coat some dark chocolate in Nutella…
Sounds dangerous.
Rachel says
Ah my weakness lately has been chocolate chex cereal… soooo good! haha I have to stop buying it :p
Stellina @ My Yogurt Addiction says
Banana chips, yogurt, chocolate, coffee! Haha guess I have a lot!
Alysia @ Slim Sanity says
those munchkins are so delicious!
Danielle@cleanfoodcreativefitness says
So funny! I think iced coffee might actually be my kryptonite! but I know that donuts are definitely my sister’s!
Julie @ Sweetly Balanced says
My kryptonite is definitely Salt!! I’d honestly rather have potato chips than cake for dessert!! Oh that and half and half in my coffee- love!
Grether says
Two words: whipped cream. Oh vey I cannot see that stuff in the house it drives me wild!
raquel says
Do you have Tim Horton’s by you? I was in Ithaca and tried their lemon glazed and raspberry glazed cake munchkins-so gooooooood!
Courtney says
No, we don’t! The only time I ever see them is at rest stops ;)
Dione says
I am Canadian and Tim’s is everywhere…yep it is true. And they are called timbits there….my favorites are the chocolate cake ones and the raspberry filled and the sour cream. I prefer timbits to whole donuts so I can eat a few different ones. They are a common evening or night shift treat in the lab where I work. Sometimes people bring them in in the morning too.
My kryponite lately is Hostess hickory sticks (another Canadian treat). I have always loved them but lately I can’t get enough of those salty little sticks:)
Brandi says
Oh goodness, blueberry cake donuts have to be my favorite thing! Yum! Hmm, my weakness has to be laffy taffy. Especially banana and strawberry!
Brittany @ ReadRunRepeat says
Lately, Cheeze-its have been my weakness! I can’t stop eating them — someone has to physically take the box away from me and remove it from my sight. And of course, i always want to eat them at bedtime!!!
Erica @ For the Sake of Cake says
Sometimes homemade iced coffee just doesn’t match up to the wonders of DD! I love those blueberry munchkins too! Have you ever had the jelly-filled munchkins? OMG.
Julie says
My weakness is definitely sweets! I’m getting better about making sure it’s a sweet that is really worth it, though. No stale store-bought snacks, just the really decadent splurge here and there!
Congrats on softball!
Laurie @ Love, Laugh, Laurie says
All ice cream is my weakness…so hard to drive past a drive thru and not get a cone or blizzard or something!
Alex @ Healthy Life Happy Wife says
I’m a big dunkin donuts munchkin fan, too! The chocolate glazed are my jam!
Jen Correa @ Mom's Gotta Run says
My food weakness is candy, especially the sour kind. It’s sad to be 37 and sneaking candy so my kids don’t see me.
Debbie (Accidently Delish) says
i am a sucker for the donut hole bites. i love the the chocolate glazed. i always have to get them. it’s just necessary and they don’t count. :)
i LOVE fresh flowers too. everytime we go to trader joes i get some, because they are cheap, pretty and they do spruce up the house!
kaylie says
My kryptonite would have to be oreos! There’s a reason I NEVER keep them in my house- I would eat half the bag in one day if I could! :)
Erin @ The Grass Skirt says
I am pretty much powerless when it comes to Dunkin Donuts too. I’d say that my Kryptonite is Subway though. I’ve become obsessed during this pregnancy!
Jennifer says
My krptonite is M&M’s. Cannot stay away from these chocolate morsels!!
Shannon says
Those are some gorgeous flowers! A great price for them too. :)
My kryptonite is chocolate, in general. I LOVE Double Stuf Oreos; if there are some in the house, they’ll be gone within a day. Also, cupcakes and brownies are a big weakness of mine.
Amy @ Inspired Amy says
Ahh those look so yummy. Up in Canada those “munchkins” are more commonly known as Timbits (from Tim Hortons). You can’t go to any softball/soccer/any sport really game without seeing a box of these lying out, and it’s so hard to stop at one!
Vanessa G says
I can pass up about any sweet, but my weakness is ice cream. I eat it every single night. I have for years! Good thing I also run alot. I say my ice cream makes me run faster, Haha.
Erin says
Self serve fro yo! I spend like $20 a week on it!
Bek @ Crave says
Hahha, maybe whoever works the counter at Dunkin Donuts has a crush ;) Or thinks you need a few extra munchkins on you!
Ashley @ Sweat for Sweets says
Those little munchkins look adorable! My weakness is chocolate + cupcakes. Can’t deny them.. ever!
