Crunchy Munchy Oaties

December 16, 2008

Sorry for the suuuper late bfast post guys!!  I’m home sick from work today, so I’ve been doing work on my laptop and hadn’t gotten a free minute to blog yet.  I actually think I prefer working from home sometimes… I know some people say that they get less done at home, but I actually have fewer distractions when I’m here.  I can just sit in my pj’s and get right down to work as soon as I crawl out of bed.  Plus you obviously aren’t talking to anyone or walking to and from the bathroom down the hall so you use your time more efficiently.img_2266

Aaanyway, I made Banana Oats today with some vanilla almond milk and topped with a generous serving of chopped butter toffee walnuts.  The bf got those a while back and wasn’t a huge fan so I adopted them for topping my oats.  I don’t like them on their own bc they’re almost as sweet as candy, but on top of oats they make a fabulously crunchy-sweet topping.img_2265

img_2267Ok, I have much to do so I need to get back to work… I totally forgot to mention yesterday that I added another 5miles to my December mileage – go me!  I don’t know the tally off the top of my head, but I’ll post one along with my lunch post.  Have a great Tuesday all!  :D

    Wow the walnuts sound great, and I am not a fan of any sort of nuts !!
    Its impressive you can get so much more done at home! But there can be distractions in the house sometimes too!!

    Those oats sound awesome! I also like working from home. I feel like I can focus better when I’m able to be comfy and relaxed on the couch.

    Hope you feel better!

    Thanks for all the well wishes guys!! :D

    AmandaI try to use natural light and avoid a flash whenever possible, and if not I put my food under a light and turn off the flash. I also keep the macro setting on so that I can get in close. …it shows up as a little flower on the bottom right of the screen of my Canon Powershot.

    Erica & sweetandnatural Agreed! And for me not having to commute on the subway 30+ minutes is so key.
