Yesterday: -5 degrees
Today: -1 degrees
Tomorrow: 15 degrees. Woooooah!
Obviously, the process of getting to and from class without freezing solid, let alone doing my work, has delayed my actions in the blogworld lately! I’ve been disciplining myself with 7 am rugby weights in the gym and hours of reading on life after death, but the blog post consistency has suffered. No worries, I’m back! Here’s a glimpse into what the past few days have entailed.
Breakfasts:
YIAJ: Yogurt in jar! Of peanut butter, that is. Plain greek yogurt with banana, cinnamon and peanut butter.
The same!
Green monster smoothie with spinach, avocado, chocolate protein powder, greek yogurt, coconut milk, & cinnamon.
Plain greek yogurt, 2 clementines, cinnamon, & granola
Green monster smoothie with spinach, avocado, chocolate protein powder & coconut milk
Fashion break!
(that’s the “bring it, impending cold front” face)
Cristin, I’ve rocked the peacock earrings twice this week!
sweaters + sweater dresses = winter survival
Lunches:
(caution: they’re all the same dang thing! gotta use up the produce)
Variations on a theme: spinach with red bell pepper, with nutritional yeast and tempeh. It’s too easy NOT to make everyday.
Apartment shenanigans break!
Bro love on the broken futon.
Those are my scarves.
Oh…and that’s a large knife…
Dinners:
Malibu Veggie pizza from Old Chicago (mmm!)
Grilled cheeses (on whole wheat bread) and tomato soup
Homemade bread with flaxseed
School-made garden salad with organic caesar dressing
So as you see, life in the cold could be worse. We’ve even got sunshine!
But still lots of snow.
That’s Colorado for ya!
I’m dreaming of another green monster for tomorrow:
And yet another smile over the fact that I’ve been eating Greek Gods greek yogurt and studying greek gods and the afterlife at the same time!
Night!
Question: Have you been affected by a crazy weather front lately? My family’s been going crazy on the East Coast, but we just got hit out west too! I can’t wait for the return of the 50s on Friday!

What state do you live in?
I have to admit, I love that my smoothies (especially the one I just made) happen to match my puffy coat perfectly. Score!

Even though it’s so cold outside, I can’t bring myself to stand over the stove and make oatmeal! I might be addicted.

Hey Pretty Lady! Love the fashion shots š
It’s pretty darn cold in upstate NY! It’s funny though—a little sun and 12 degrees feels like a heat wave! I was walking out to my car today and had to unzip my coat because I was hot!
