Rushed

March 17, 2008

Happy St. Patty’s Day ~ are you all wearing your green?  Do you know where St. Patrick is really from?  Wales… interesting huh?  Turns out he wasn’t really from Ireland (I knew this but not sure if you all did?)…

I honestly have not had a Monday start like this in a LONG time, but I knew it was bound to happen at some point… Definitely forgot to set my alarm last night… well I set it but I forgot to turn the alarm portion on!  So I woke up naturally at 6:15am (I normally get up at 5:15am), so I was darting/rushing out the door… however, I do feel much more well rested on a Monday than I have in a LONG time!  Needless to say, I have no pic for breakfast because I literally threw oatmeal, flax, and two egg whites in a tupperware container so I could eat it at work (although I wish I could show you how good it turned out!!!)… I also grabbed a banana which I diced up real thin (at work, not at home!) and mashed half of it in, and put the other half on top after it cooked… I think since the egg whites soaked into the oats on the drive in, the egg white oatmeal came out MUCH better than my previous attempts… it was great!  I also liked the banana mixed in, but I think I’m still partial to adding it after cooking… I like the chew/taste as many things as possible, and mixing the banana in kinda gets lost if you add it before cooking, in my opinion anyway!   Either way, being that I ate my breakfast at 7:30 instead of 6am means that I won’t be eating a mid-am snack!

Hope your Monday is going a little bit more smooth!

    Ahh.. I hate rushed mornings, especially on Monday – but sleeping in is always nice! :) I’m a bit partial to having my banana on top too – if I don’t have some thing to chew I don’t feel like I’m really eating!

    I have those mornings ALL the time! Thanks for the tip- I will have to try to soak my oatmeal and egg whites tomorrow.

    I personally like my bananas cooked and in little chunks with cinnamon in my oatmeal!

    Chandra ~ I am the same way about “chewing” stuff too!

    Cara ~ hehe, I was the ONLY one in green in my group at work if it makes u feel any better!

    Ashley ~ yeah for some reason it didn’t get “eggy” when it soaked for a bit, who knows… I like the chunks too and even the bananas cooked just not completely melted like part of mine was today!
