Good afternoon!
We are all packed up and about to head off to the airport to fly to Germany for our family vacation! Our plane leaves around 5 p.m., which is great because we had time for a full day before heading out.
First up — a delicious breakfast!
My favorite — Kashi Heart to Heart mixed with Kashi Honey Sunshine, topped with fresh berries and skim milk. 🙂
In between packing and getting organized, I made time this morning for a yoga DVD to get some serious stretching in before sitting on a plane all night (bah — I loathe sitting still!)! I tried out this Bob Harper “Yoga for the Warrior” DVD that the lovely people at Quaker sent me in that Amazing Morning kit awhile ago:
I actually really loved this DVD! The yoga session is an hour long — it starts out with some intense vinyasa style yoga and finishes with about 15 minutes of abs/stretching at the very end. Perfect! Not too short, not too long. Got me sweating, too! Plus, Bob Harper is pretty hot 😉 I feel like there was some sexual tension with him and one of the girls in the DVD, haha. He’s not gay, is he?!
Aaaaaaanyway… I also got to try out my awesome new yoga block that I ordered courtesy of the $75 gift card CSN Stores sent me to review some of their products.
Yay! So happy to have one of these — I’m not all that flexible and it’s really useful for some of the harder poses where my hand can’t reach the ground.
In other news — guess who showed up for lunch? 🙂
Why, it’s Matt! He was in Pittsburgh for the holidays and drove back this morning, so he stopped by to say hello and have lunch before heading in to work.
He brought a bunch of leftovers from his parent’s house, so between his leftovers and ours we had ourselves quite the feast! I had some AMAZING turkey stuffed with sausage (!) from Matt’s stash, topped with cranberries from our stash!
With a side of salad and snap peas from our stash, topped with some broccoli and pesto covered tomatoes and mozzarella from Matt’s leftovers:
And a piece of toast 🙂 I love carbs, what can I say.
Dessert was a small Stonyfield Oikos blueberry Greek yogurt:
Plus half of a grapefruit (shared with Matt), sliced soccer-practice style so I can eat it obnoxiously with the rind in my mouth in front of my teeth.
Our ride gets here shortly so I’d better head off! Catch you guys later from EUROPE!!! So excited. And stay tuned — I have a special guest post coming at you guys tomorrow morning!
