It’s so hot in New York! That’s the first thing I thought when I got here.
Obviously I still had oats for breakfast. Ever since reading Kath’s blog, banana oats have, like for many of you in foodblogland, become my go to breakfast. They’re just so delicious and comforting!
In the mix was 1/3 cup of Oats, 1/2 small banana, 2/3 cup water, splash of almond milk, sprinkle of cinnamon and a big blob of almond butter on top.
I bought the Blue Diamond brand of crunchy almond butter and it’s…. interesting. There were ALOT of almond pieces in it. It sort of felt like liquidy almonds on my oats, which was good… just different then the AB I’m used to.
The bf and I did a mini Whole Foods shop last night and picked up some staples. It was hilarious actually. He knows I like to eat “healthy” but I don’t think he knew to what extent. And we’ve never really gone grocery shopping together and when he saw all the “weird foods” I was getting (read: almond butter, agave, brown rice pasta, Ezekiel tortillas, ORGANIC food) he was like “you’re insane”. Don’t worry, he’ll get used to it.
I’m slowly but surely settling in. On the agenda today: unpack, get cellphone, and look into gym membership! I might try and fit in a run today… but it’s just so darn HOT!
Have a wonderful day!
