My favorite type of morning: Body Pump + Wheelhouse Diner. It’s really THE BEST way to start the day!
This morning, Mal and I joined our friends, Dave and Marie, for an early-morning Body Pump class, and then the 4 of us headed straight to the Wheelhouse Diner for breakfast.
At the Wheelhouse, I started with a big glass of iced coffee with cream and sugar. I was so thirsty after Body Pump, so it really hit the spot!

To eat, I ordered my usual breakfast: one egg over hard, homefries, and rye toast with butter. I almost always finish the entire portion, and for $2.95, it’s totally worth the price!

And the best part about this morning: we scored VIP parking right outside the Wheelhouse!

I’m having one of those days where my workout seriously stimulates my appetite, so now I am snacking on some Glutino Chocolate Covered Pretzels that the company sent me to sample. They’re very chocolaty!

This afternoon, Mal and I are running some errands and then we’re heading to a friend’s engagement party.
Enjoy your Saturday, blog friends!

That breakfast sounds awesome, and for $2.95.. that’s great!
Have fun today, Tina!
2.95!!! i need to get there stat! i REALLY miss diners from where i grew up in the ny/nj area, but this one looks like it might be a winner.
That sounds like the perfect Saturday to me! And what an amazing deal on breakfast!
Body Pump is awesome. I need to get back in the habit of going!
Happy weekend to you!
$2.95!? You could NEVER get a proper meal that size for that price in England!!! I don’t blame you for getting them every Saturday
glad your day is off to a good start – pretzels and chocolate don’t hurt!
I never had Rye toast. It looks really good. I love chocolate and pretzels. The sweet and salty flavors are the best.
Sounds like the perfect morning to me!
$2.95 for all that food!! Lucky you, it’s hard to find anything like that where I live!
Awesome morning!
Lovely breakfast…
By the way, is the blue car your car in that picture…? Who’s that in the backseat?! Freaks me out a little.
Have an awesome Saturday!
Wei-Wei
I went to Body Pump for the first time yesterday with a friend who brought me as a guest to her gym. I’m mostly a runner so this class kicked my butt! I’m SO sore today! Needless to say, I’m going to need to check into becoming a member of that gym
my friend is celiac so she always had the gluten free pretzels–I think they taste ten time better than regular pretzels!
Chocolate covered pretzels are amazingly addicting. I cannot keep them in my house!
I can’t believe that breakfast is only $2.95! That’s very impressive!
I need to get in on that free gluten-free snack action. I really like Glutino’s pretzels (except they are very, very pricey). The pretzels are really airy and crisp. I’ve never had the chocolate-covered, but I’m sure that they are delish.
What a fun breakfast out! I love those types of Saturday mornings.
Front row parking, body pump, chocolate….perfect!
Happy Saturday Tina!
I discovered the “Diner type” of food when I moved to the states, and now I can’t get enough! It’s so cheap, and so good! And especially after a good workout!!
$2.95?!? That is cheap, cheap, cheap!
Yum! I need to give glutino a try. It sounds perfect for my sensitivity
$2.95?! That’s a great deal!
Body pump always made me hungry. I wish they had those classes out here in Chicago.
That’s a steal! There’s nothing like a diner breakfast…YUMMM!
Have fun at the party!!
Hunni and I like fun weekly habits. I’m glad you enjoy your’s too.
Enjoy the party celebrating with your friends.
Those pretzels look delicious! I love diner breakfasts and how inexpensive, yet tasty, they are.
sounds like a great morning to me!
Wow I can’t believe how cheap that meal is! I love reasonable portions and prices
Have a fun Saturday!
I can’t believe you get all that food for $2.95! Little diners are my fav for just that reason!!!
Diner breakfasts are perfect after an early workout. I always feel better knowing my workout is complete first thing.
That breakfast looks tasty! (except for the egg) I’ve never had rye toast either but I’d definitely try it since I love toast and those choco pretzels…mmm! I didn’t know they made ones that are gluten free.
I love chocolate covered pretzels, I could eat the whole bag.
$2.95?!?! Are you kidding me? OMG. You Americans are so lucky! When I order eggs florentine at my local cafe, it costs $13. And plus, you have chocolate covered pretzels. Sigh.
