Back to Bed

May 25, 2010

Look who went back to bed this morning!

Murphy and I went for a 30 minute walk around the neighborhood this morning and now he’s totally spent. He’s actually still sleeping in our bed. I’m telling ya, Murphy lives a very nice pug life.

I really wanted to curl up in bed with Murph, but work calls this morning. I didn’t get much done yesterday because I was running around all day, so today is all about catching up.

Breakfast

I started my day with a big bowl of oatmeal, which was half Mad Hectic oatmeal and half old-fashioned oats. As much as I love the Mad Hectic oatmeal, I find that if I mix it with regular oats, it holds off my hunger for much longer.

I also added chia seeds and two scoops of peanut butter to the mix.

No iced coffee with breakfast because we’re all out. :-? I’m brewing some hot coffee right now though. I wonder if I can make the switch for today?

55 Knives

So, guess what?! One of my recipes is featured in a new downloadable ebook put out by Nick at Macheesemo! So cool! :-D 55knivesbanner.jpg

The 200-page book is a compilation of stories, recipes, and tips from 55 food bloggers. Each of us has a chapter and a story included. Mine is about my husband and one of his favorite recipes. The book is priced at $19, but this week, it’s only $14 (until June 1st).

Here’s where you can learn more and purchase the ebook: 55 Knives. Nick also includes some interesting FAQs about the project.

Question of the Day

Well, it’s not a technically question. ;-)

Complete this sentence: I’m the kind of person who always _______.

P.S. Rumor has it that it’s Free Iced Coffee Day at Au Bon Pain in select markets! Details here.

Omigosh, your bed is enormous! Murphy is almost lost in it! I think he leads the most awesome dog life of any dog I’ve met (including my own!) I’m the kind of person who… eats a block of chocolate every single day, and gets incredibly irked by improper use of apostrophes.

If you have an espresso maker, it is really easy to make iced coffee. Just make the espresso, pour it over ice and add milk (whatever type you like). I do it almost every morning now in the summer. So goodddddddd.
