Slow and Sleepy

January 21, 2010

Goooooood morning! :-)

Well, it was another slow, sleepy morning for Murphy and me today. I slept through my 4:29 writing alarm and he spent an extra 45 minutes laying in our bed. (This dog is SO spoiled.) I guess we really needed the sleep, right? Maybe some writing will happen tomorrow.

Breakfast

Awesome 3-Minute Cookie this morning! I love these things! :mrgreen:

I doubled the recipe for a more hearty meal.

In the mix:

  • 1/4 cup MixMyGranola
  • 1/4 cup oats
  • 1/4 liquid egg whites
  • 1.5 tbsp Vega Smoothie Infusion
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

I spread about 1/2 tbsp of peanut butter on top. So delish! :-D

We were out of iced coffee this morning (the horror!), so I made a pot of the hot stuff. I added a splash of vanilla soy milk to my mug.

They are all great – I don’t know which one I would choose – but I think my top two favorites are the Love Coffee and the pretty green “Keep Calm and Carry On”. That’s always been my m.o. anyway!
