Morning!! I’m in a great mood today thanks to the beautiful blue skies and the bright orange bowl of breakfast
I started my Tuesday as usual, with yoga. I did 20 minutes of Power Vinyasa #4 with Dawnelle. LOVED IT! It had everything I’ve been looking for the past few days: strength (including an awesome plank-core challenge), lots of flow, pigeon, and a great teacher. I followed session I with a second – Hip Opening Flow. It was much slower + more stretching. The music was kind of scary too – it reminded me of the movie Sling Blade. But my hips feel opened 🙂
For breakfast I used up some of this multigrain hot cereal I got in bulk from EarthFare ages ago.
- 1/3 cup cereal, 2/3 cup water, 1/3 cup milk, 1/2 large banana, pinch salt
- 1/3 cup pumpkin, stirred in at end
- ~3 tbsp wheatberries
- 1 tsp brown sugar (this cereal was more savory than sweet rolled oats so I added a little sugar. I prefer oats…)
- 1/3 crumbled KIND Almond Coconut Bar (which I find a little too sweet for general snacking but it was perfect over oats!)
- Barney Butter drizzled on top (the top of the BB jars are always more “flowing” than the bottoms so I scattered it around rather than trying to keep it on the spoon)
A cuppa French pressed joe. We’re using up some bags of regular coffee and they’re pretty gross. I miss my flavors!!
KERF Model
Check out Angela sporting the “I Eat Real Food.” shirt!!
I absolutely love this shirt. I purposely bought the ‘looser’ style tee because most of my tees are snug and tight so this was a nice change up! It is so comfy. I love wearing it around the house and it would even make a great workout shirt!
BSI Winner!
I submitted my Date-Stuffed Pork Tenderloin to the Blogger Secret Ingredient contest this week going on at Tales Of Expansion on a whim and it won! Thanks Sarah!

I thought you put tangerines in your oats…now THAT would’ve been different!
Sarah (Tales of Expansion) says

Hey Kath. The HangryPants code no longer works.

Nicole ,
I use this technique: http://stumptowncoffee.com/guides
JW ,
Bummer. I’ll see what I can do.
Snake ,
LOL!! The t-shirts are unisex!
K
HangryPants says
I saw JW’s comment about the code not working – it was only for one week. Sorry. 🙁
Also, Kath I usually story my nut butters upside down in the fridge because I think it allows the oils to distribute more evenly. I’ve noticed most natural nut butters are flowier on top.

MaryBe says
Angela looks so cute in that shirt!
Congrats on the recipe, it looks great
Jess says
JW/Kath,
I did a google search for Barney Butter coupon codes because I too tried to use an old code. Try using “reluctantentertainer” to get free shipping for orders of $14 or more (basically two jars). You can find more info here: http://www.reluctantentertainer.com/2009/02/dont-stop-cold-turkey-barney-butter.html
Kath says
Jess ,
THanks!!

tricia says
everything on this site always looks so delicious, but i have no idea where to begin.. i dont think i have any of the “staples” in my kitchen to prepare any of these foods, my husband and children to do not look at fruits and veggies and i have finally accepted preparing 4 different meals instead of 3 everynight so that i can start to enjoy things that they have no interest in eating at the moment… the problem is that i am new to this and need some help. i really do not know where to start. please help, im so frustrated.
