Good morning and Happy Friday!!! Hooray, it’s finally here :)
Thank you for all your ideas for the peaches + coconut milk! I only had a little left, so I decided to use a little bit in my breakfast this morning.
I’m already missing the early sunrises of summer :( The lighting isn’t nearly as good at this time of morning!
I still had just some of the plain oat groats that I cooked up earlier this week, so I heated up the following:
- 1 cup cooked oatgroats
- 1/4 banana, sliced
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 Tbsp coconut milk
I put that in a bowl and just heated in the microwave for about 1 minute and 30 seconds.
Then I stirred it all up, topped with the rest of my 1/2 of the banana and some chopped almonds.
The coconut milk gave this such a great flavor! And I loved it with the bananas + almonds.
It was a very tropical way to start out my Friday in the cool mountains.
What are you looking forward to today / this weekend?
We probably have tickets to the football game tomorrow, so I am excited about that. Should be fun!

I’m heading to D.C. and I get to see one of my best friends that I haven’t seen in a few months. have a great weekend!

Today = relaxing but this weekend is all work so I’m not really looking forward to that very much ;)
Woohoo for football tickets though!
alright, you’ve convinced me – i am opening up my can of coconut milk soon and putting it in oatmeal. tropical flavors are one of my faves!
mmm i bet the coco milk really made these yummy! I am looking forward to my quarterly tomorrow :) and then CRASHING all day Sunday haha. Enjoy the football game!
Today I’m looking forward to doing some yoga. I haven’t done some in weeks and my back is starting to complain. I think I’m going to get out my DVD and do a long session. I’m also looking forward to the farmers market to buy some local treats to send to some friends.
Enjoy the football game. As much as I love it on TV it is so much more awesome in person. That’s how I got into football to begin with. High school Marching band! And the cool drum line who were patient with me to teach me the rules :-) Love those guys still.
you’re a lucky girl with all that live football… i think that’d be more fun than watching my fiance yell at the tv :-)
I’m looking forward to realxing and college gameday with the hubby! And some running of course!
Hi Brandi,
I hope you go to the game!
This weekend on Saturday we are going to the carnival in town and Sunday we are going to the mall to see icarly.
(icarly = nickelodeon show)
(me + my 4 year old + 1000 screaming kids)
(yeah)
Thanks Holly for the hint that coconut milk comes in a can, Yesterday I looked in the refrigeration section…dah!
It’s been forever since I’ve said this, so I’m just going to throw it out there. I am so excited to do homework. Seriously.
Am I a mega nerd?
I have a twin sister and our best friends are twins, and Sunday is our monthly get together – we met in 3rd grade and have been friends ever since!
They were the first twins we met :D
And since I am a football widow on Sunday’s, I don’t feel bad leaving my hubby and step-son behind. And Hannah has to work.
Happy Friday!
I think these pictures are awesome! That looks so good.
I had a big banana and some walnuts in my oat bran this morning. That combo always keeps me full for awhile! I should get some oat groats. I’ve been craving all manner of whole grains lately. I should add them to the mix!
Have a great weekend!
This weekend I am looking forward to sleeping!!! Is that completely pathetic?! I’m just so exhausted. I’m also totally buying coconut milk because of you – can’t wait to try it!
