Big Dogs Are Great to Run With. A glimspe from 11-29

Ugg boots, however, are not. What a lesson. I was walking Pico and I decided that the both of us could use a little exercise. We had a good time, running, panting, barking at some passersby. I recommend you go running with your pooch, but definitely not in your Uggs. :(

Speaking of running, I was stupid and went running on an empty stomach and was DYING when I got home. I needed something fast. I looked in the fridge- nothing in there. The pantry was bare too, except for some instant oatmeal. I could go on and on about my love for oatmeal, but I'll save that for another post. The thing is, I hate instant oatmeal. I dug through the fridge again, as if something had magically appeared, but to no avail. So yes, I ended up making instant oatmeal.


I ate them plain, and boy did I feel better.

Yesterday's eatings were a mess. Pancakes with syrup and peanut butter for breakfast. Then went along a banana, a quesadilla, one more spoonful of peanut butter... (okay, it was more like 3) Lunch was a homemade potato soup, but I didn't really feel like eating it. I mindlessly snacked on stuff all day and by the time my dinner bell was a'ringing, I just felt sick. I made roasted veggies anyways.

I'm thankful for...

I'm thankful for a lot of things. Mostly for my little family and the time, music and food we share. But I'm also thankful for the feast I had today.

And yeah, totally not healthy. But it's Thanksgiving, and you can bet I ate my heart out. Excuse me while I go into a food coma.

Oh look I'm alive! Also, I've seen lots of people with Vita-mixes and I want one so so bad. I'd blend, baby, blend- all day!! If anyone sees one on sale, please let me know. Thanks. :)

Things I've eaten lately.

Dear blogging world,

I'm Ashley, and I eat veggies. I've read a lot of blogs, and even more food blogs. The more I read, the more I became inspired to have one of my own. Some of my favorites are:
heathereatsalmondbutter.com (Oh dear, I just realized I kind of stole her name idea. :/) and
chocolatecoveredkatie.com, just to name a few.
They talk about the foods they cook, eat, love, and make healthy. They're quirky and interesting. I want to be quirky and interesting, too! I also strive to live a happy and healthy, too. So here is my attempt to do as they do, and blog blog blog. Forgive me, I'm not a pro at this!


Homemade veggie pot pie. :)



Stir fry veggies and a baked sweet potato.



Heather Eats Almond Butter's Pop-Tart Pancake recipe minus the "frosting."



Oatmeal+banana+peanut butter= heaven in a bowl.


Speaking of bowls, that pink bowl is my favorite. It has a straw built into it (I call it a strauble... straaaaw-bowl?) so you can drink up the milk in your cereal with ease, but I like them for anything. Even though I can't slurp up my oatmeal through it. :(

Can't wait until Thanksgiving tomorrow! The one day in the year you get to pig out without people judging you. Sound like my kind of day! :D

Thanks blogging world.
Love, Ashley.
