In any case, I’m refusing to let the weather dampen my spirits. It’s the most wonderful time of the year, regardless!
Last night, I prepared a new overnight oats combination to dig into this morning.
- 1/3 c rolled oats
- 2 T oat bran
- 2 T flax seeds
- 2 T peanut flour
- mashed banana
- ½ c almond milk
This morning, I added some thawed frozen strawberries and microwaved it all for one minute to take the chill off. You can’t go wrong with strawberries + banana!
Later in the morning, I headed to the gym for a workout. Though I enjoyed my half-marathon training, it’s nice to be able to mix things up without thoughts of race day looming ahead. I completed half an hour on the elliptical and 15 minutes on the stationary bike.
Despite a wet and windy walk home (the wind actually broke a few hinges on my little umbrella), lunch was rather cheery!
He’s smiling at you J
I spread an Alvarado Street Bakery sprouted wheat bagel with Once Again creamy peanut butter and Crofter’s South America spread.
And enjoyed it with three giant medjool dates and a gala apple with cinnamon.
Now I just need to go find some hurricane gear to wear to class…hope you’re having a great hump day!
What’s the weather like in your neck of the woods? Any signs of snow yet?

Gabriela, you need to get yourself a poncho! haha
It's just as bad in Philly but luckily I didn't get called into work today.
It's disgusting here in Mass. :( Rain and heavy wind.
It is snowing where I am! And it's supposed to keep snowing for a week (except Friday).
Our rain turned to snow about three hours ago...I bet yours will too!!
No signs of snow here! But it did get down into the 30s last night. I think it's supposed to warm up again. I feel the same way about half marathon training - I've loved it, but like you said, I'm excited to mix up my fitness after the race. Your lunch looks delicious. I need to buy some bagels.
The weather is being so bizarre! It was warm, almost hot, before my 8 am class, and later on it was frigid!
What a nice, winterized overnight oats mix!
in england its very very snowy = very christmassy! eek :D ps I want to eat your breakfast!
Hasn't stopped raining allllll day. But it's so warm! I mean, well... for NYC in December it's warm! I think part of the reason I haven't done another marathon for so long is that I like to just work out without a regimented training routine over my head - I'm a little afraid it would take the fun out of working out a little bit! It is good to have a goal, though...
I wish the snow would go away and the sun would come out!
The weather has been weird here too! Love your smiley plate... and ice cream sundae glasses are so much fun!
OHMYGOSH its snow city over here in the uk!!! ive been decked out like an arctic explorer every morning trying to get to work!
Altho i have to say, it makes me smile as i pass by all the little people sat in their cars queuing in the traffic. i just wanna shout "hahah, my legs are faster than your wheels!!!" :-p
It's snowing pretty hard here! pretty, but yucky!
Haha, I love your smiley plate!! Sorry about the weather, though. I'm coming to NYC for a quick trip this weekend and I hope the weather gets better! It's nice and sunny here today (although we have already seen lots of snow this year) - so maybe I'll bring the sunshine with me when I come.
The weather is frosty and cold here and we're supposed to get rain later today. Great fireplace day.
WOw, those overnight oats look like dessert!!! I love the new look of your blog, btw :D
Your breakfast looks awesome!!
It's been snowing all day here (Michigan).

Sunny in California. I sometimes get tired of the sun and wish for true winter weather. Is that crazy?
Girl, those oats sound awesome!! And look incredible!
It's COLD here but sunny... a great change from yesterday which was cold and rainy..ugh. I'd much rather have snow than cold rain.
oh yeah! we've got snow and ice-- quite nice, but I miss being able to run outside! the treadmill just doesn't really do it for me! I love the peanut flour addition to overnight oats :)
