Today is off to a good start. I’ve already gotten some stuff done around the house, got a good workout in, and have a good breakfast in my belly. Holla!
Workout
This morning I was in the mood for some cardio, which is a good thing, since it’s what I had planned on doing anyways. I decided to do the running option on my latest Pyramid Treadmill Workout. I don’t know why, but that workout seemed extra hard today. Yikes!
Breakfast
I know I’ve told you all this before, but I really hate wasting food. For example, whenever I make a batch of my Crackled Sugar Cookies, you’ll see me with a big ‘ol whopper of an egg white omelet the next day because I don’t want them (the whites) to just get thrown away.
Well last night when Jay finished up the last of the pasta salad, I noticed that there was a lot of the cut up veggies left in the bottom of the bowl. So, rather than throw them away, I threw ‘em in a baggie and saved them for this morning’s breakfast!
I picked out the carrots and cucumbers from the mix because, while I’m all for different omelet combos (especially this amazing one), I didn’t think they would be very good.
So instead, this one ended up getting filled with green peppers, red onion, grape tomatoes, dried basil, salt, black pepper, and some added goat cheese, which gave it the perfect amount of creaminess. Oh yes, and ketchup. Definitely can’t forget about the ketchup.
Along with my omelet, I ended up having a cherry pie Larabar after spotting it in the cupboard and getting an intense craving for it.
I also had a delicious mug of coffee, which I actually need to tell you about. The other day, I noticed that the lovely Tina had added some pumpkin pie spice into her coffee grounds, which made me realize that it’s been forever since I’ve done that with cinnamon. (I’d do the pumpkin pie spice, but Jay wouldn’t go for that.)
The cinnamon adds an awesome hint of flavor to the coffee, which I’ve done for the past two days now. I’d definitely recommend giving it a try (thanks for reminding me, Tina!)
Side Notes
- I’m a Love Blogger! Have you noticed that cute little badge that’s been up for about a week now? Well I was selected to be a part of Love Grown Food’s Love Blogger group, which I am beyond excited about. Not only do I absolutely adore their products, but I’m even more impressed with how friendly, approachable, and thoughtful everyone is who works there. They’re an amazing company and I’m so honored to be working with them and help “spreading the love!”

Random Question for the Morning:
If you could have a meal with any three people in the entire world (living or deceased) who would they be, and why?
