Good morning!
If you’re a long-term reader of CNC, you know all about my Life’s To Do List, which is a list of things I want to do or see in my lifetime. I started it back in 2002, and I check it a couple of times per year to remind myself of what I want to accomplish and, eventually, cross off my list. Item #53 is happening tomorrow night!
#53: See Madonna in concert
Obviously, I am PUMPED! I’m going with Theodora (Ashley got us the tickets – thanks, lady!), so, for the past two weeks, I’ve sent her a half dozen text messages that simply say “Madonna!” to express my enthusiasm and psyche her up (and probably annoy her, but she loves me). I am seriously SO excited for this concert. I’ve loved Madonna for as long as I can remember and she and Michael Jackson are always who I request when I’m out dancing or at weddings. I just love to hear their music. Sadly, I won’t be seeing the King of Pop in concert in my lifetime. I’m not sure what to do about #52 on my list?
Breakfast
This morning’s breakfast is definitely a keeper thanks to a new love: coconut milk! I bought the A Taste of Thai brand, which was really tasty plus super thick and creamy, but my friend Gretchen alerted me that it doesn’t come in a BPA-free can. Bummer. Any recs for a BPA-free coconut milk?
I used my coconut milk in an “Oatmeal” Minus the Oats-type recipe, which was absolutely delicious and much thicker and way more satisfying than my original “Oatmeal” Minus the Oats recipe.
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
- 1/2 cup liquid egg whites
- 1 banana, mashed
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Delish! I’m a huge fan of coconut milk. It’s definitely going to become a grocery list staple in the future.
I added a scoop of almond butter and some blueberries to my Coconut “Oatmeal” and then drank a glass of decaf iced tea with almond milk.
Question of the Day
Who would you love to see in concert (they can be dead or alive)?
