Cookie Monster

001

Here’s my Oatmeal Breakfast Cookie as it appeared last night before I put it in the fridge.  It contains:

  • 1/2 cup of oatmeal
  • 2 tablespoons of peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon of brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon of blueberry flax seed
  • 1 banana
  • sprinkle of cinnamon
  • splash of milk

This morning I added a spoonful of plain Chobani and a spoonful of pumpkin.  Before I ate this, I mixed the 2 toppings together and spread them across the top.  It was weird to eat cold oatmeal, but I thoroughly enjoyed it.  I liked having breakfast already prepared so I could grab it as soon as I got out of the shower.  Cold oats were a nice change from hot oatmeal, and still very filling.  I should’ve made this during the summer when I needed a hearty breakfast but wanted something from the fridge.

I entered the Coffee Amnesty giveaway and chose the same blend as Jared.  We opened our second bag of Jamaican Me Crazy this morning.  I measured 1 tablespoon of powdered creamer, plus 1 packet of truvia, to sweeten it.  I am slowly moving away from heavily sweetened coffee.  It tastes much better when I let the real flavors shine through!

Apparently photographing today’s outfit required deep concentration.  Haha.  I am wearing my Tory Burch flats that are a size too small.  It’s been almost a year since I bought these and I am still mad at myself for getting the wrong size for all that $$$.  Whenever I wear these shoes to work, I stretch them on the arms of my chair so that they won’t hurt my feet.

Here are 3 super cute buttons that I picked up from the Vegan Treats table at the Boston Vegetarian Food Festival.  I dug through the container of pins and took ones that featured the all mighty Cupcake!

    Aw, cute pins!

    I’ve been curious to try that breakfast cookie but right now as the weather keeps getting colder… I just want some warm and hearty oatmeal. ;)

    Love the outfit! And love Tory Burch flats….even if they’re a size too small:) Been there done that…not with Tory Burch flats but some I actually got on shopbop this summer and convinced myself would stretch out…and I wear them despite the pain!

    I do the same thing with my shoes at work! That’s the least embarassing thing I’ve done to make an article of clothing fit though :)

    The cookie looks great!
