The Scream

July 13th, 2009 | Posted by Alison in Breakfast

I’m starting to really wonder about my cat and his will to live.

With no work out yesterday I was more than ready to get out run this morning. An easy 4 in 33 minutes.

I came home to put together lunch for Zak and ate strawberries with reckless abandon for Breakfast Part I.

A short while later I was ready to make up for yesterday’s less than stellar bowl of cookie batter oats. Things had definitely improved today.

1/2 c of steel cut oats mixed with 3 chopped dates, coconut, flax seed in 1/2 c almond milk overnight. Slopped into the blender and I SLOWLY added a splash or two of almond milk when the blender needed more liquid to work with.

Today’s was the perfect consistency. I found myself scraping the blender and licking the spatula clean much like I would like to lick the bowl of cookie batter, but without the salmonella paranoia. If my blender opening was a little bigger I can’t say I wouldn’t have risked getting “batter” on my eyebrows and my hair tangled around the blender blade.

With a spoonful of almond butter and a couple more pieces of date, I felt like I had seen today’s bowl somewhere before…

Think think think…

Hmmm it will come to me eventually.
