It appears as if SOMEbody must have used up all of their energy this morning…
This was the site I came home to after finishing up a shift at the gym this morning. I had quite a few chuckles to myself because he just looked so darn cute, funny and comfy, all at the same time.
Are all of my non-cat-loving friends out there sick of seeing him yet today?
While I was at work this morning, I had a little bit of time to spare so I hopped on an elliptical for an easy 30 minutes while watching Top Gun in the cardio cinema. Good, classic movie…I have no problem working out with a little pre-crazy Tom Cruise in my sights.
Once I got home, I put together one of my favorite mid-morning snacks as of late.
Pairing a banana SOYJOY bar with a little bit of peanut butter is where it’s at.
I haven’t tried the peanut butter with any other flavors besides banana, but I think the strawberry would go pretty fantastic with some Nutella. Just sayin’.
FYI: From now until July 15, 2012, SOYJOY is offering a free shipping coupon code for the SOYJOY e-store! The code: SUMMERJOY.
A couple hours later, after working on some client programs, I took a break to make some lunch.
A buffalo chicken wrap made with avocado, lettuce, tomato, and mustard, all on a LaTortilla Factory whole wheat wrap. On the side, I also threw together a random mix of leftover corn and sugar snap peas that I found in the fridge.
Definitely a delicious meal.
Now it’s about time to get back to work…is the day flying by for anyone else? Yikes!
Taylor @ A Taste of Taylor says
Yumm banana and PB is such a perfect combo…well, actually anything with PB is pretty darn close to perfect! Also, I have never been a huge cat person but after reading your blog regularly I have been seriously thinking about getting a kitten when I move into my apartment for senior year! My roommate is totally down and I feel like it is the perfect pet for our living situation :)
Caroline @ After Dinner Dance says
That wrap looks delish! I haven’t quite found my “wrapping groove” yet. Often when I try to make my own wraps at home I just don’t like them! I never know quite what I do wrong.
Angela @ Health, Happiness, & Harmony says
Your lunch looks delicious! So filling and healthy. Anything with avocado, is a favorite in my book.
Never thought of dipping a bar in peanut butter! I love bars crumbled and sprinkled over some Greek yogurt though. :) An Iced Oatmeal Cookie Clif KidZ Bar over some vanilla Greek yogurt and fruit tastes like dessert!
Karen says
I think Cody is the most adorable cat ever…unfortunately I am very allergic to cats. I love looking at the pics you post of him. He does get himself into some very “funny” positions.
I noticed you have Jif Peanut Butter, usually you have Skippy, do you like both brands or was there a “couldn’t pass up sale on Jif”?
Courtney says
Haha, you’re so right! I almost always buy Skippy but my store hasn’t been carrying it for the past few weeks! Jay and I actually decided that I think we’ve been converted…we’re both totally loving the Jif!
Sana says
Your wraps always look so perfect, mine are usually sloppy and messy!
Erica { EricaDHouse.com } says
That is my absolute favorite kind of peanut butter!
Khushboo says
Peanut butter & banana is such a winning combo! I think you need to add in a layer of Nutella next time…take it to the next level ;)
Ashlee @ A Step in the Right Direction says
Cody looks huge stretched out like that lol… I love taking photos of the animals – they just look so cute sometimes.
Hope @ With A Side Of Hope says
That wrap sure looks yummy! :) This day is creeping along for me. I think it’s because I know how much stuff I have to do once I get home.
Hayley @ Running Down the Runway says
Mmm! I keep forgetting to buy SoyJoy bars! My favorite snack as of late is cottage cheese + chocolate pb2 + cinnamon- sooo good!
Lindsey says
I need to try Soyjoy bars but I am not sure they are in Canada!
Cindy says
I am a HUGE cat person and am so glad that you post pictures of Cody because since I’m away from home (college) I never get to see my cats so Cody is my cat fix!! :)
Jaren@Kiwi Fit Blog says
Cody is so cute! I love kitties! {hence why i post my fur babies up alot too}
Pre-crazy Tom Cruise is SUPER cute. Why do all the cute ones have flaws?
Renee says
Yum, PB on a banana bar. That sounds fantastic!
Cody is darling! My male cat sleeps the same way ;)
Megan@ The Running Doc says
Your cat is so cute! It seems like he has so much personality.
That wrap you made looks delicious. I’ve been on a total sandwich kick lately so a wrap like that is right up my alley!
Janae @ Bring-Joy says
Your cat is so cute. I think I like cats, because I can relate to their erratic behavior :).
Sabrina @Work It Ms Jackson says
Your wrap looks DELICIOUS! Mine never look that appealing, or stay closed. haha
Ashley @ My Food N Fitness Diaries says
you can’t go wrong with that banana + peanut butter combo! ;)
Alysia @ Slim Sanity says
I need to get some wraps back in my life!
Lisa says
I’m definitely a cat person, since I have one myself, but I do love dogs as well! Banana and PB is a great combo, I love coconut and banana together. Its my new fave thing. I now have a craving for avocado and turkey
Michelle (Better with Berries) says
Your wraps look so pretty! Mine are always kind of falling apart :-)
Kristen @ notsodomesticated says
I’m not a cat person, but I still love seeing Cody pictures! He’s such a cute little fluffball! :)
Amber at Love, Laugh, Live Well says
PB and banana are always the best together! I love that Jif peanut butter too…so creamy for a natural. Pretty tasty looking lunch too!
Linda says
I just want to pull off the pool cover and float until the sun goes down.
michelle kim says
OMG, I love how cats will lay down in the weirdest positions and be comfortable. Cody is soooo cute!
Suzanne @ Fit Minded Mom says
I don’t mind looking at cats, as long as it is through the computer :-)! I am HIGHLY allergic to them so I kind of want to run when I see them in person. Kind of sad too cause I think kittens are the cutest little things….
Alyssa @ fit and fun in third says
Usually I can’t stand bananas (unless it’s banana bread), but my taste buds totally change once some peanut butter is thrown on top!! Yummy snack! :)
Lauren @ Fun, Fit and FAbulous says
Your Kitty is too cute for words! Any kind of Banana plus PB equals a winner in my book for sure!! I can’t wait to try that!
Kylie Cruise says
Your cats are cute and I love to play cats with my kids. Nice pictures.
Laurie @ Love, Laugh, Laurie says
We could never get sick of Cody! He’s so adorable!
Katherine says
Natural JIF is my favorite PB, especially crunchy.
Bek says
I hope you were lucky enough to see the beach volleyball scene ;)
Lisa Williams says
I prefer nuttela and a real banana, anybody here ever tried that? =)
Lea says
My cat sleeps just like that. He’s fallen asleep in chairs before, tried to roll over like than and rolled right off the chair! He’s quite the character.
Elysa Mac says
The wrap looks really great. What did you do to the chicken or wrap to make it “buffalo” ? I’m all about the spicy.
Amanda Baldwin says
Your cat is so cute. That cat is really comfortably sleeping. Talking your foods, you have a very healthy lunch. The foods are very delicious.
