That’s just about all I’ve done since we last talked 🙂 Oh, and a workout!
Getting up was easy this morning, and I was on the Stepmill by 5:50. I spent 30 minutes on it with my favorite magazine, Body + Soul, and then cooled down with 10 minutes on the Squirrelliptical. The Stepmill was extra hard today! I checked the clock twice ready to get off. I ended my workout with some upper body lifting – biceps, shoulders, delts, and triceps all while moving up and down an aerobics step.
The husband caught up on sleep while I was gone (he’s working 1-7pm today) but that means he gets up and makes me breakfast while I shower. Today he did a B&B “part of this complete” breakfast spread (with the request of tomato, spinach + feta omelet from me 🙂 )
Sadly the omelet turned into scrambled eggs (we have yet to perfect an omelet technique in our Circulon pans). This was 1.5 eggs, tomatoes, baby spinach and about 1 tbsp feta per person. Plus some fresh frozen basil.
Plus a stale piece of Cinnamon Raisin Walnut with raspberry jam. This was from last week and was on its last leg – but it’s still good!
We also split a grapefruit
I also had a little leftover Superfood smoothie, but it tasted gross (I could taste the freezer burned berries) so I only had 2 sips.
Butterscotch Toffee!!! The husband took one sip and said “What have we been missing!”
I’m off to food lab, where we’re studying crystalization, then I’ll be working most of the afternoon because I’ve got a Ladies Brunch + Movie planned for Sunday afternoon when I need to be studying for two exams!
CHECK OUT this forecast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 16* yesterday, 70* on Sunday!?! We get our share of sub-freezing weather in NC, but it never lasts more than a few days and we always have January and February days that reach 70.
Later gators.
VeggieGirl says
Love that smoothie!!
I need your weather – it’s a high of 15°F here 🙁
HangryPants says
My omletts always turn into scrambled eggs. Mark is much better at it than me! I think I am definitely missing something with that coffee. Stay warm!

Kailey (SnackFace) says
That forecast is bangin! That’ll naturally bring so much happiness:)
Beautiful breakfast too!
Anne P says
I am insanely jealous of that weather forecast. The weather here freaking sucks. It’s not super cold (I mean, pretty cold, but reasonable), but it’s just always. freaking. cloudy.
FoodsThatFit says
I am so excited about the warm weather too! Hooray for temps above 30 degrees! Hopefully it will stick around!
Beadie @ What I Ate Yesterday says
We are supposed to have gorgeous weather, here, too.
Happy Friday!
Lisa says
My parents have a couple odd Circulon pots and pans (yard-sale and junk-table pickups) and eggs are always a nightmare in them.
Super jealous of your weather! At least it’s going to get up in the 40s today.
Alli W. says
This is my first NC winter, and our weather has been mirroring Charlotte this week. I cannot WAIT for the weekend so I can thaw out!
Mara @ What's For Dinner? says
I’m so excited for this weekend!! It’s only going to be in the 40s here, but its still better than the single digits!
GORGEOUS breakfast!
Emily says
thats exactly how the weather is down here in Tennessee! Im coming up to charlotte for a job interview on monday, so i hope the weather is not bad…i have to drive over the asheville mountain highway! haha
brandi says
Omelettes usually mean scrambles here, too 🙂
Our weekend is supposed to be fabulous! I’m excited
Meg says
Yeah for 70s! Even on its last leg, GH bread is yummy!
Diana says
I haven’t figured out the omelette thing yet either. I think my last omelette turned into scrambled eggs, as well. It looks like it tasted good, at least!
Thanks goodness for the warm weather…I’m ready for spring already!
🙂 Diana
Sharon says
Oh wow, wonderful!! =D
Bec says
Its nice that you are getting some warm weather, I am definitely jealous. Your omelet looks delicious, even though it did end up being a scramble.
sarahdbelle says
We’re not quite as lucky as you in Maryland, but we’re expecting 55 degrees on Sunday! I cannot wait! Perfect walking weather.
Mariposa says
sooooo jealous of the weather!!!! it is bright and sunny and below 10 degrees up here! booooo!!
Mel says
My mom had circuilon pans for years and I will agree, eggs are some of the hardest things to make in them!
Lucky you with 70 degrees, I wish we’d get close to that here!
Sarah (lovINmytummy) says
I’m shocked that “delicious looking” smoothie tasted gross!!! 😉
Breakfast for two is always so much bettah!
theoddbod says
that’s all you need to do 😉
zestycook says
Sweet Breakfast and Sweet Weather!
Victoria says
Yep, I jealous of your forecast too, although we’re supposed to get up to 30 this weekend! Breakfast looks tasty.
seelee live (for the love of peanut butter) says

Amanda says
Is that flavor of coffee from Fresh Market?
polly says

Missy (Missy Maintains) says
The eggs looks so good scrambled or not! I wish I had them waiting for me when I got home! So lucky!
sue says
i prefer scrambles to omelets so your breakfast looks perfect. happy friday 🙂
Elina says
I’m so jealous of your weather! It’s freezing in Boston, although I do think it’s supposed to get up to 40s… that’s warm here 🙂
I love feta in omelets!!
Betsy in Pittsburgh says
I like how big the slice of bread is… just how I like it! And I’ve never had luck with day 2 smoothies myself.

Biz says
Omelets aren’t that hard to make, you just have to be patient. Wait until you see all the edges have built a crust, then lift up each side and roll the pan around, let it sit and crust up, then keep repeating.
I then put my toppings inside, roll it into an omelet, put cheese on top and then remove from the heat and put a top on for a few minutes until cheese melts. Works like a charm for me!
Jealous of your weather, although we may hit 50 tomorrow which is unusual for Chicago!
Jennifer says
It’s supposed to hit 60 this weekend in D.C. I love how the days are getting longer too! Glad spring is coming, slowly but surely.
Rose says
Beautiful breakfast spread!!
Jess says
My omelettes always turn into scrambled eggs too.
JillyB says
Those eggs sure looked great! Omelette or no, I’m sure they were tasty. A big THANKS for the yogadownload coupon code, too! Went on a little shopping spree last night and can’t wait to try all of the classes I got.
Maggie says
hooray for great weather!
Diana says
looks so yummy! weather looks great too!
Alison says
The high in Boston for the next 10 days is 46*. To say that I am envious of you right now would be a massive understatement 🙂 have a great one!
Sheila says
Circulon pans are a scam and just junk. The kind with the circle ridges on the bottom, right? This does not prove anything when cooking (it’s just a marketing scheme) and they are actually unsanitary, as food can sometimes tend to get stuck in the ridges. It’s not you, believe me. You’ll never be able to make a proper omlet in one of those pans.
Shelby says
I’m so jealous of your cinnamon bread, who cares if it’s stale?! haha
It’s a lovely 30* here, I’m enjoying it.
Stephanie says
The weather has been so strange here in CA too! It was 78 two days ago and now it’s pouring rain and freezing….makes it hard to go to the gym when you have to walk 5 blocks in the rain!!
Kath says
Amanda ,
It’s from Dilworth Coffee, a local shop here in CLT.

Philippa says
The best pan for making omelettes I’ve ever had is a £2 one from IKEA. The one I have has lasted nearly a year. Perfect omelettes every time! If you’ve got an IKEA near you, go and get one (or three!). Enjoying your posts very much, as always. 🙂 Happy Friday!
kimmomof8 says
I love your blog, been reading for quite awhile…very refreshing to see someone that eats real food!
I also had to say that I love your taste in mugs~ I have the same one and love it, love it, love it…so classic. 🙂
EatingRD says
No need to perfect your omelet technique with the omelet pan I got and used on my last post. It makes omelets so much easier and they come out perfect every time!
