Pumpkin on the fly
Well, it happened again this morning.
6:47am…BUZZ. Drilllll.Shake.Buzzzzzz.
W. T. F.
We are not kidding when we say, it sounds like they are drilling a hole to China.
Hmmm…. what if they are? What if Communism is back? We guess that would be weird. Remember the McCarthy raids? Wait. We wasn’t alive for that. Remember when the Berlin wall came down? Shoot. We were only five when that happened.
Um, disregard everything we just said.
Other than the drilling and banging, we actually had a lovely morning.
Breakfast today was all about pumpkin.
We picked up a couple of real pumpkins from the store the other day. Aren’t they cute? We used to love visiting pumpkin patches when we were a little girl. Um, scratch that. We still love to visit pumpkin patches. Anybody want to go? We will buy you some apple cider. Spiked? You got it!
Since we have been trying to eat oats at least once a week, we figured why not get in the pumpkin spirit and make a pumpkin smoothie.
Brilliant!
Pumpkin Pie Smoothie
Ingredients:
– 1/3 cup oats
– 1/2 pumpkin puree
– 1/3 yogurt
– banana
-1 tablespoon chia seeds
– 1/2 cup milk
– pinch salt
– pinch cinnamon
– pumpkin granola, garnish
– almond butter, garnish
Directions:
– Put all ingredients into a blender, except the pumpkin, and store overnight. Do not blend. In the morning, add some more milk, pumpkin, and then blend away! Top with pumpkin granola and peanut butter!
Mmmm…. tastes just like pumpkin pie. Only better.
As we drove to work today, our thoughts were everywhere:
– Why is it so warm?
– These Me Too flats are too small.
– we need a bulldog.
– we love our new Jeep.
– Maybe our Jeep could use some truck nuts? No. that’s weird.
– That guy riding that scooter looks weird.
– we need new ski bindings.
– Do we go to Target before of after boot camp?
We know thought provoking.
Anyways, todays outfit was cute. Well, at least we thought. What do you think?
With wrap… Without… Grey Top: BCBG (outlet) Jeggings: Gap Flats: Me Too Jewelry: Uncle Nordies Wrap: Uncle Nordies After work we did stop by Target. We thought we would be in and out, but they rearranged the store. Don’t hate when that happens? Now the laundry detergent is next to the shampoo. Brilliant. Once we arrived home, we were going to run, but it was windy and looked like it was about to rain so we eighty-six that idea. Wise choice because boot camp tonight was crazy hard. We did a lot of upper body conditioning. We seriously have no upper body strength. Trying to do skull crushers and dips, followed by jumping on a box with weights in each hand is not our happy place. Nevertheless, we are all getting stronger and that’s what matters. Now we are at home contemplating whether or not to down a bottle of red wine, while we watch our favorite fall TV shows. Decisions are the worst (name that movie!) See ya tomorrow!
