Pugs Make Me Happy

February 12, 2009

While making my oats this morning, I remembered that Dori had reminded me to change my calendar from January to February. (It’s only February 12! ;-) ) I was so happy to see this cute and cuddly pug face! Isn’t he adorable? I want one!!!

I had pumpkin oats again this morning. Today’s mix included wheat berries, walnuts, one of Heather’s muffins crumbled up and cooked into my oats, and a huge scoop of Barney Butter.

This batch was SO GOOD!

Lunch Preview

I had tons of leftovers from last night’s dinner at Border Cafe, so for lunch, I have a piece of veggie quesadilla as well as an apple, a clementine, and a lemon-flavored Luna Bar.

I have to go with breakfast, too! There’s nothing like a relaxing breakfast while catching up on the news :)

Breakfast for me as well, but weekend breakfast. I make the pancakes/french toast/waffles/crepes + fruit salad, Graham makes the coffee. It’s the best part of my week!

Yay for Border Cafe! When we lived in Cambridge a few years back, my fiance and I frequented that restaurant. The Blackened Mesquite Grilled Salmon Salad is my “usual” :)

**Favorite meal of the day = breakfast. I ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS start my day with a bowl of Nut Butter-Banana oats and a protein shake.

Thanks for having Maggie guest blog yesterday. Thanks to her, I went running last night for the first time in 6 months! I am exhausted today.

Breakfast for sure!!! I could eat it for every meal :)

Nicole February 12, 2009 at 8:30 am

Awwww, pugs!! So cute.

I can’t decide my favorite meal! I love breakfast foods and I love lunch/dinner foods! I might just go ahead and say that dessert is my favorite, though!! I can’t decide. I like ‘em all :)

Maybe the Valentine’s fairy will bring you a Pug!

If my students didn’t remind me to switch my calendar, it would still be November in my classroom!

I’m a big fan of dinner… duh!

Susan February 12, 2009 at 8:37 am

I’m a breakfast person too!! I wake up with my tummy growling most days and love to make big feasts first thing in the morning :)

Reply

Lisa February 12, 2009 at 8:38 am

Breakfast for sure! I have a sweet tooth so I tend to stick to the muffins, oats, granola bars, yogurt and fruit. Then I get all excited when I make breakfast for dinner sometimes!

Definitely breakfast, which, at times, becomes a dinner option as well!

Reply

Colleen February 12, 2009 at 8:54 am

I’m with Rachel – I love ALL my meals! I feel like I’m starving for every one of them (especially if I exercise first thing in the morning), and it’s so nice to eat! :)

Reply

Colleen February 12, 2009 at 8:56 am

Oh, and you SOOOOOOOOOOO need to get a pug – they are one of my favorite breeds, and that way we could all see more cute pug pictures everyday! :) Any chance you might get one for V-day?

Reply

Dori February 12, 2009 at 9:00 am

Aw yay thanks for the shoutout! My favorite meal of the day is breakfast – I just LOVE all breakfast foods so much more than any other types of food!

I have the Shiba Inu Puppy Cam Calendar — it is SO adorable! Love that pug though!

Reply

Leah February 12, 2009 at 9:02 am

Breakfast on the weekends, by far.

Reply

Betsy February 12, 2009 at 9:18 am

Aw I love pugs, but whenever I see them out in the hot summer heat wheezing and panting I get sad. They’re designed so that they can’t breathe properly! So weird!

Anyway, I’m going to join the choir and say I love BREAKFAST! Mostly the carby things, pancakes… french toast… mmm…

Emily February 12, 2009 at 9:24 am

I havent changed my calender yet either, but i sure would be more motivated to if it involved such a cute picture! haha.

My favorite meal of the day is BY FAR breakfast. oh yeah.

Breakfast! I love breakfast food and going out to breakfast makes me so happy!

Reply

Lara February 12, 2009 at 9:25 am

So hard to decide! Probably dinner, not just because of the food but also because it’s normally a shared, pleasant experience :)

K February 12, 2009 at 9:44 am

Ahhh dogs with wrinkles are just too cute! I want to squeeze ‘em :)

I’m a big fan of lunch!

Sammie February 12, 2009 at 9:45 am

I love breakfast. It is probably the only time I get to sit, relax and catch up on my favorite blogs. I agree with you – Pugs are sooooo cute. A few weeks ago we were at the store buying our dog some food and a one of the workers had a Pug puppy with her. He was super tiny, soft and cute. I hope some day you get to have one of your own.

Sarah (Tales of Expansion) February 12, 2009 at 9:49 am

awwww, that pug is a cutie! i’m much better with PICTURES of dogs than i am with them in real life.

my favorite meal is breakfast by far!! fantasizing about oatmeal is what gets me out of bed every morning, and i love being able to blogsurf through everyone else’s beautiful oatmeal mornings, too!

Reply

Amy February 12, 2009 at 9:56 am

My fave meal is dinner. It’s more relaxing for me because I’m not rushed to pack my lunch and get ready for work. I also really love going out to dinner with friends or family. It’s the best. :)

coco February 12, 2009 at 9:59 am

definitely breakfast is my favorite! :D

Sara February 12, 2009 at 10:25 am

I agree with the majority…breakfast is my favorite! Oatmeal, cream of wheat, toast, fruit, yogurt, cereal…I love it all. :)

Lesley @ Alive & Thrive February 12, 2009 at 10:26 am

I’m going with dinner because it is the meal I get most creative with. Though, some of the time I am REALLY tired from being a working girl and come up with some pretty quick & easy meals!

Reply

Beadie @ What I Ate Yesterday February 12, 2009 at 10:35 am

All of them :)

Reply

Christy February 12, 2009 at 10:50 am

Definitely dinner. I get to be creative in the kitchen and sit down and eat with my hubby. We put on some music, light a candle and talk about our day. <3

Christina February 12, 2009 at 11:07 am

Breakfast! I always wake up extra early to make really complicated ones. My friends think I’m nuts!

Brekkie is my fave too, especially when I can take my time and relax and prepare myself for the day!

def breakfast

Diana (Soap & Chocolate) February 12, 2009 at 11:25 am

Oh, tough question. I do get reallllly excited about breakfast foods (pretty much the bread and butter of many food blogs, no?), but on the other hand, dinner is most often the meal I get to spend with someone else or watching a movie, so I associate it with good experiences. Tough call!

Breakfast for me too! I could eat it any time of the day! Cute doggie!!
