Good morning to all and hello from Noodle!
Hope everyone had a good night sleep. Even though I have been working crazy hard lately, I have been managing to get a good amount of sleep in each night (since I have been going to bed around 11! ha). I have one more presentation this afternoon and then I just have 2 papers and 1 online final left! Yippee! Online tests are deciving because you think they should be easier, but they aren’t. Mine are given 2 hour time limits and even with doing all the readings and preparing, everyone takes every last minute (believe me, I’ve asked around).
Since it’s so cold, I wanted to whip up something warm for breakfast! I had one apple left, so I chopped it up and put it in a saucepan with a little water (I didn’t measure it, just a couple tbsp) and some cinnamon.
I let that heat up on medium for about 5 minutes, this lets the apples soften. Then I added in 1/2 cup oats and 1/2 cup almond milk. I let this mix heat for another 5 minutes.
Then popped it in a bowl, added a tbsp of almond butter and voila!
AWESOME warm breakfast.
I am contemplating heading to the gym this morning. The thing is I usually take Wednesday’s off, but I also usually lift on Mondays which I didn’t do this week. But I am thinking that I might just take today off and then lift tomorrow and Saturday. Gym schedules can be so complicating! Phew!
Well I best practice my speech so I don’t make a fool of myself ( I haven’t practiced this speech as much, but it’s also not nearly as important as the one from yesterday, and it’s about 1/4 as long.). Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

I have an apple in my fridge that is begging for me to prepare it the way you did. Thanks for the idea.

Hey girl! Thanks for coming to the blog, I’m checking yours out in 3, 2, 1….. 🙂
That is such yummy oatmeal! I love oatmeal so much and I love adding fruit and almond butter to it. I agree with everyone else, Noodle is adorable. And the name…NOODLE! Did you name him? Hope your speech went well!
I freaking love oatmeal toO! I never even thought about any kind of oatmeal (besides like the little maple brown sugar packets) until a few weeks ago and now i’m addicted to making my own mixes!
And noodle is a girl 🙂 Her birth name, haha, is Maggie Mae, but she was very squirmy as a puppy so I started calling her Noodle 🙂
thank you so so much for your insight on my last post, i think i have a lot of honest thinking to do.
noodle is adorable 🙂 and those oats look wonderful!
good luck on your next presentation!!
happy wednesday!
