Yep! That’s My Core!!

Hi, lovelies! How has your Tuesday been treating you? Hump day already tomorrow…WOW! Where ever does the time go?

I pulled some banana bread crock pot oats out of the freezer before bed last night for a quick breakfast this morning; 100_6226

I added some USAB to bring it back to life along with raisins and some Dorset cereal. Oh la la! 100_6225

Check out Sarah’s wonderful blog for the recipe. Like the new fall bowl??? 100_6227

One of the girl’s in the office is getting married this weekend so we had a small gathering for her at break time. One of the ladies make a super moist zucchini cake and a Skor dip + apples. There was another gathering for some else last week with chocolate & carrot cake and I passed that time. Not today! And the splurge was well worth it! 100_6231

Here’s a close up of the dip; 100_6232

I hit the elliptical at the gym today. My cold is still raging and I knew I didn’t have it in me for a run. Soon, I hope!

I brought a lazy lunch to work again today. I feel like I’m in a lunch rut lately. I’m over the salads of the summer, but not feeling the soups of winter yet. I ended up with a container of 0% Fage and a 1/2 cup of TJ’s blueberry muesli; 100_6234

I knew this would be tasty and filling and it did not disappoint. I also chowed down on some cocoa almonds! 100_6235

Once the clock hit 4pm, I was out the door. DS was on the ice from 5-5:50 with team track suit fittings afterwards. I couldn’t stay for the whole thing but I did take on responsibility for one of the major fund raisers for the team so I had to gather some info for that.

Thankfully they were at the rink around the corner from our place so I was home by 5:15 to make myself supper. On the menu was a grilled wrap filled with pepper jack cheese, grilled tomatoes and zucchini and some honey mustard. A Ginger Gold apple adorned the side of the plate. 100_6236

Mucho tasty! And the reason I had to rush around like this? I started up Pilate’s classes again tonight after a summer hiatus! The class I’m in from now until December is called Core Dynamics and boy oh boy, do they mean business!! We worked on 100’s for almost a half hour! I think I’ll be feeling that in the morning! Seriously, though…it was a good class.

I’m settled on the couch now watching SYTYCD Canada. I miss a half hour watching it this early, but The Biggest Loser is on at 9 and I can’t miss that! The next few Tuesday’s for me will be just like tonight…Pilates –> couch potato! :D

Bye for now!!

  10. Jillian was mighty harsh last night. Those people have so many true psychological traumas; she should really be less cruel. Gets stale! I think they should add a new trainer or something, just to keep it interesting.
