All Popped Up

Brrrrrrr.  There has been a chill in my apartment since around this time last night that just will not go away!  I slept with socks and yoga pants last night. 

I snuggled my coffee cup immediately upon getting out of bed but even with that and my Snuggie I was still cold when I got off my conference call.  I knew I needed oatmeal to warm me from the inside.

In the mix: steel cut oats, 1/2 banana, flax meal, cinnamon, raisins, water and UVAB.

Topped with Sunflower Seed Butter and another TJ’s find: Oat n Wheat Bran Swirls.  I’m in love with this cereal.

I really wanted to go for a latte….like REALLY wanted to go for a latte…but I knew Fedex was trying to redeliver a package I missed yesterday so felt a little captive here in the apartment.

I was not sad to heat up lunch though.  I’m here to tell you the Tom Yum Soup lasted a second night in the fridge. :)

After lunch FedEx must have read my whiney tweet because they arrived with my loot and I was able to head out for my latte. Kicking it old school with my usual grande extra hot non fat vanilla latte. 

I’ll regret that afternoon caffeine later.

More TJ’s love in the house.  You’d never know we don’t have a Trader Joe’s here.

All that caffeine and “power” actually gave me a much needed burst of energy.  I finally warmed up and ended up on an after work cleaning spree around my apartment.  My bathtub hasn’t been this clean since I moved in this Summer! Of course, my buzz wore off before I mopped my floors…but whatevs. :)

Dinner was munched between cleaning projects.  Just a few spanakopita baked up.

Have you seen any fruits and veggies in today’s eats?  Me neither.  Hence the last minute chopping of carrots and peppers.

The rest of my evening was spent enjoying that FedEx delivery I received earlier today… a super duper awesome belated Xmas package from my “friends” at Popchips!… (they sent a surprise package pre-Xmas but of course didn’t know I’d moved…so I let Arron keep that one and they were kind enough to send me more!)

…and watching the “new” American Idol.  JLo is far better than Paula or that Kara chick ever were, and who knew Steven Tyler was actually quite hilarious.  I’m intrigued people, I’m intrigued.

Popchips with pop singers. Whoa.

Did you recommend any songs for me yet?  You know you want to!
