hot yoga with a head cold

I started my morning pretty early with a small bowl of overnight oats.  I can never sleep in when I’m sick so I decided to make the best of it with a healthy breakfast. This morning I concocted a pretty tasty combination:

1/4 cup steel cut overnight oats (I still have some left over from the work week batch)
2 Tbsp soy milk
2 Tbsp pumpkin
1 Tbsp almond butter (yum!)
1 Tsp ground flax
4 slices banana
lots of cinnamon

    I tossed the bowl in the microwave for about 90 seconds and it was delicious.

    I also just pulled a kabocha squash out of the oven. I just don’t get tired of snacking on this delicious wintertime treat. I left it in the oven just a little long as you can see the the rind pulling away from the fruit. It’s ok though, I tried a bite and it still tastes good! This should keep me stocked through next weekend.

    I’m drinking hot tea and water and trying my best to prepare to get my sick butt kicked yoga at 12:30. I don’t know if it’s going to make me feel better, but I’m willing to gamble on it for the possibility. Worst case scenario, I come home, shower and go back to bed. I’m feeling optimistic though and I bet sweating this out a little will do me well. One can at least hope, right?

    I’ll keep you posted on the results, hopefully I’ll be up for a grocery trip to Chinatown this afternoon. I’m totally craving that handmade tofu.

    Happy Saturday!!
