Breakfast

This morning I woke up with a sweet tooth. Rather than eating candy for breakfast, I made myself some oatmeal.

Usually, I make my oatmeal with: brown sugar, ground flax seeds, and cinnamon. This morning I added a banana along with some strawberries and black berries.

This was probably the best oatmeal I have ever eaten! It was sweet, but not too sweet. There was so much flavor. Needless to say, I enjoyed every bite

After breakfast, I reorganized my school materials. Putting all of my books into my backpack only reminded me of all of the work I have ahead of me. Not only does school resume tomorrow, but crew (rowing) practice resumes. I enjoy rowing, but I dislike winter training. Winter training consists of 0% rowing and 100% erging (using the rowing machine) and weight lifting. I would compare winter training to running on a treadmill (only harder) everyday. I don’t know about you all, but I prefer running (and rowing) outside. I enjoy looking at scenery and not having to stare at numbers.

After preparing for school, I headed to the grocery store. Grocery shopping might be one of my favorite things to do, after baking and cooking of course

Of course I bought some Chobani!

Chocolate Chobani? Since when?!

Dinner

After grocery shopping, I began making jumbalaya. It was my first time making it, so I followed a recipe off of the internet. I changed a few things from the original recipe, but I couldn’t tell you all exactly what I did (I did not measure some of the ingredients).

The jumbalaya tasted aaaaaamazing! My brother even gave his approval by going for seconds… or thirds

Oh! Did any of you watch Once Upon A Time tonight?! I watched it after eating dinner. It was a pretty good episode!

POTD #6

Do you go back to work or school tomorrow?

Did you watch Once Upon A Time tonight?

I hope that you all had a nice weekend!
