The husband and I working out together (forever!) at 11 after my class today, so we got to enjoy a relaxing morning (and the hilarious Office last night!) After breakfast we watched the newest Conan O’Brien (which we watch at least 3 times a week and love) and Uncle Jesse (John Stamos, yes, but he IS Uncle Jesse) was on!! I was a HUUGEEE Full House fan when I was little (er…still am?) and had (have?) a huge crush on Uncle Jesse. His wedding to Becky was always my dream wedding when he sang this song to her….
And I have it on my iPod too!
So back tracking to breakfast – I made a huge bowl of pumpkin oats.
- 1/3 cup oats, soy milk, water
- 1 tbsp raisins
- Half small banana
- Pinch salt
- 1/2 cup pumpkin (stirred in at end)
- 1/8 cup cottage cheese (stirred in at end)
- Half a serving of Nuts over Raspberries trail mix (from Trader Joe’s)
- Spoonful Butter Toffee PB
Plus coffee!
And a vitamin
Off to class in the cold rain 👿

That should read “The husband and I ARE working out together” but I can’t edit it or I’ll have to re-embed the video!

Full House! That was my FAVORITE show growing up. I was actually very very sad when the series ended. And I used to know that Uncle Jesse song by heart. 😛
Amanda in Pittsburgh says

Charlie Hills says
Never? Not once? Just skip the oatmeal and have a bacon, egg, and cheddar cheese bagel sandwich?
I am impressed.
Can I borrow some of your DNA?
VeggieGirl says

Oh Uncle Jesse and Becky. I really thought that the Full House life was perfection! Love them! And he really does have great hair…
Happy Friday!
caitlin says
i was always more of a saved by the bell fan, myself 🙂
enjoy your friday1
Angie says
YES! And then they have the twins and Uncle J becomes a rockstar and they film the “Forever” music video with the twins? Too cute. And I need to leave the ’90s soon, considering I just spent my morning at the gym watching Saved by the Bell. Other than The Office, what happened to good TV?!?
seelee live (for the love of peanut butter) says
What a wonderful way to start your Friday, Kath! I loved Full House and I still do. John Stamos is quite a looker-nobody blames ya!
Tina says
Haha, I LOVE Full House! I used to be so addicted to that show… I think I still am! 🙂
Megan says
I love Uncle Jessie! I can’t believe you found that video!!!
Oh She Glows says
ohh I still haven’t watched The Office yet…..the suspense!
Betsy says
oooo i used to love full house. sometimes i catch it crazy early in the morning when i’m getting ready for work. so bad but so good.
Julie says
This is so so funny. Two days I ago I blogged about about Uncle Jesse’s and Becky’s wedding! I even included the “Forever” lyrics on my site. Though I thought it might be silly to blog about, I couldn’t not because I’ve always been in love with Uncle Jesse. Great minds think alike 🙂
Maggie says
I love that song 🙂 I have it on my ipod too!
Yummy breakfast. Enjoy working out with the husband!
Katie says
HAHAHAHA! OMGOSH! Can I TELL you how funny that is!?!?! “Uncle Jesse” was my first crush EVER! So embarassing and hilarious!
Meryl says
hehe- I had such a big crush on uncle jesse that when my younger brother was born, i begged them to make his middle name a tribute to my crush 🙂
and they obliged! love your blog, thanks for sharing!
Beadie says
*SWOON* Uncle Jesse 🙂
mags says
i have seen EVERY episode of full house at least twice!!! i LOVE that song and have it on my ipod toooooooooo!! happy friday!
Bridget says
Remember when Full House was on TGIF and that was the best way to spend your Friday night???
Julie says
LOL – Love that song too! Remeber the music video he made for the song with baby Nicky and Alex? I’m the biggest Full House nerd evs, for real.
Runeatrepeat says
I love Full House more than anything. I thought DJ was so cool and I wanted to have a dog named Comet! I still love the Beach Boys because of that show.
Mel says
I totally had a crush on Uncle Jesse too. I think that was the best part of watching the show! I really wanted to be a part of their family too! Every once in awhile, I catch it on TVLand and indulge!
halie says
The Office was awesome! Yay Jim & Pam! And I love the dysfunction of Ryan and Kelly!!! I love that show!
I’m not as much of a fan of Full House though 😉
Great breakfast! Catch you later!
K says
Uncle Jesse was such a stud…well he still is 🙂 The Office, as usual, was great last night!
Have a great Friday, Kath! I hope you don’t mind I’ve added your blog to my blogroll. You are such a great inspiration!
Allison K says
love full house. the TGIF line up was what I lived for on Fridays in Elementary School. 🙂
Kay says
I also had “pumpkin oatmeal” (my newest love!) for breakfast this morning…yummy! And, you oatmeal blogging gals have ruined me with adding in extras…now I just HAVE to crumble part of a granola bar on top. Sure makes it taste delish though, so thanks for the idea! Just wondering….do you sweeten yours with anything~~~artificial sweeteners, real sugar, etc. I use liquid Stevia…but would love brown sugar instead and lots of it! ha! oh well, must be a good girl and try to eat healthy. Enjoy your food posts and seeing what you’re eating and enjoyed the video and song!
Erin says
You’re not alone. Uncle Jessie is totally gorg and seems to be getting better with age! I think that’s partly due to his much improved hairstyle. 🙂
Stay as dry as possible!
Cat says
OMG Full House… used to be so obsessed. I was actually in San Francisco with the BF a little while ago and made him stop by the actual Full House house so that we could get a picture of us on the front steps. And we visited Alamo park where they have the picnic in the opening sequence… we are dorks and my friend who lives there was kind enough to be our tour guide for all things Full House. 🙂
runjess says
What’s ‘ol Uncle Jesse up to nowadays anyway? Is he still on ER?
Katelyn says
The trail mix in your oats always looks scrumptious! I should really try that sometime.
Grounded Fitness says
ugh i hate how youtube changes the HTML when you edit
I used to love the Teddy Bear song they would sing for Michelle.

I just want to TY Kath for introducing me to kale. I never, ever would have thought of getting it before reading your blog (always been a spinach, mixed greens girl). I now love kale (and it comes in a HUGE bag at the supermarket).
Yum!
Erin says
I’m impressed that you would admit to that!
I don’t have the Stamos love, but I remember thinking her hair was really beautiful. Now it makes me really glad I cut all mine off!
Teddy says
AH I love the office… and when i was 5 i loved uncle jessie SO MUCH that i named my cat jessie…
Best Cat EVER
Amy says
Those pumpkin oats look awesome! I am currently stuffed full of oatmeal, but maybe will have to try your version tomorrow!
Moran says
I LOVED full house too when I was younger! Uncle Jessie is GORGEOUS!
Lara says
Thanks for the walk down Memory Lane–haven’t thought about that show in so long! Cute, Kath!
BethT says
Oh….I hate full house. With a passion. Everything about it makes me want to slam my head against a brick wall.
When you were in SF you should have visited Alamo Square to see the houses they show in the opening sequence!
Hannah says
John Stamos was being interviewed on one of our local radio stations in St. Louis this morning – thought of you when I heard it come on! What a hilarious guy! Loved it.
Nadine says
I was laughing out loud watching that. I love him on ER now. He’ adorable 😉 PLUS we get to watch ‘Becky’ on 90210 now–granted not as good as the original, but still a delicious guilty pleasure. Thanks for the post lunch chuckle!
Kath says
Julie ,
Hahaha! That is too funny. Guess you owe me a martini!! Her wedding dress was unbelievably 80s!
Kay ,
Mine is sweetened with banana 🙂
Jennifer ,
So glad you’ve joined the kale club

melissa sue says
i LOVE uncle jesse and i love love that song! it makes me so excited when it comes up on my playlist.
i kind of secretly hope rob (my fiance and a guitar player) will play that for me at our wedding. i’d be horrifyingly embarrassed, but i’d soooo love it!
kristi says
You just made my day with Uncle Jessie’s Video!!! He was and is still so hot, but will always be uncle jessie!!!
Fancy says
I loved watching that video! I used to be so jealous of DJ’s permed hair 🙂
Caitlin says
okay, I realize this post is a few days old, but the “tribute” to “Uncle Jesse” cracks me up 🙂
