After a few days of sugar and treats, I was looking to start the day (and the week) off with a healthy breakfast. I made Pumpkin Cream Pie Oat Bran from Mama Pea’s Cookbook.
It gave me the chance to use my new Hanukkah gift. Tell me this isn’t adorable! I love it!
I used my immersion wand to create this creamy breakfast.
The oat bran was super tasty. It was a nice oatmeal alternative. With a scrambled egg on the side, it fueled me for this morning’s workout. I met the TRAINER at a different location today.
With only 9 days to go before my cruise and two weekends of baking, I was in need of a killer workout.
We did a boot camp style workout running up and down the bleacher steps, sprinting while pulling a tire (this is much harder than you’d think), lunges with said tire held overhead, and squats. We finished with some serious core. By the time I got home, I was exhausted and definitely ready for lunch. I had some leftover Root Vegetable Tagine (one of my favorite crockpot recipes), rice and veggies.
After lunch, the BOY and I headed to an afternoon showing of Sherlock Holmes. Since we both had the day off and neither one of us was brave enough to go near a store, a movie was the perfect afternoon activity. Plus, you know I love me some popcorn! Sherlock Holmes was Great!!! I was totally into the first one and this sequel did not disappoint. I have been a fan of Robert Downy Jr. since his Ally McBeal days, and he is a spectacular actor! The BOY and I spent the rest of the day hanging together and making plans for our upcoming cruise. After checking out pictures of St. Kitts and St. Lucia, I am more excited than ever! Looking forward to the rest of my week off!
[…] I made this last winter and absolutely loved it! So my mouth was watering before I even started cooking. This oat bran is spicy, creamy, and super filling! […]
