Sunday started with thoughts of yoga. I thought and I thought. My thoughts went from downward dog to sleeping dog.
I just can’t peel myself away from that pup on a cold Sunday morning. Plus, we needed the extra sleep. In between bouts of sleep, I rose for some breakfast.
It’s been awhile since I shared my lovely oats with you because…well…they’re oats! The bowl never looks particularly exciting, but it always tastes so perfect. The mix doesn’t vary too much:
- 1/2 c. oats
- 1/2 c. almond milk
- 1/2 c. water
- 1/2 banana
- 1/2 tsp. chia seeds
- cinnamon
- Toppings: raisins and peanut butter
I let Lucy lick the bowl. It’s her favorite breakfast, too.
After breakfast, I committed to another marathon.

Say Yes to the Dress. Thank you, Randy, for keeping me entertained through a lazy Sunday morning. This marathon was just what I needed.
I did manage to get dressed and get out of the house, but only because I was in search of food. Running took over my life for a little while and the cupboards started looking bare. I typically shop on Sunday – along with the rest of the world – and I could wait no more. I dragged my mom along for the ride. We went to two grocery stores.
The first for lunch:
I may not buy my groceries at Whole Foods, but that doesn’t stop me from frequenting the hot bar. Today’s selection was a cup of hot and hearty minestrone. I also had a craving for something cold and creamy, so I paired my soup with a Wild Blueberry Flax Parfait. Yum and yum!
Once fed, we crossed the street to buy our goods.

Market Basket seriously has the best prices around. They can’t be beat. I’m willing to fight the crowds for that kind of savings. I filled my cart with the usual suspects.
And a few impulse buys!
Someone needs their chocolate fix…
There are people who need football on Sunday. I need puppies and chocolate. What can I say?
Are you a list-maker or an impulse buyer? I LOVE grocery shopping, so I have to be very careful not to buy everything I want. I have a list of basic items to keep on hand…then I wing it!
