I slept until 11h3o this morning. That NEVER happens! I was shocked.
I woke up feeling completely rested. I suppose that is a good thing.
Its a cool damp morning, which screamed oatmeal. With the Fall season upon us, it also screamed PUMPKIN oats.
I present my first bowl of pumpkin oats of the season, with a homemade non fat americano misto with some cinnamon dolce sugar free syrup. YUM.
My weekend hasn’t exactly been a prime example of a healthy living lifestyle. The complete opposite actually. Friday night, my beautiful old roomie and her husband came for a visit from Toronto.
Katie and Amy after too many gins.
Katie and I had big plans to hit up Body Attack on Saturday morning. Our wine turned into gin, and that was all she wrote. No exercise yesterday. Katie and Mark had a wedding to attend, so Andrew and I went to see the new Trailer Park Boys movie (boring) with some other friends. We went out for dinner first. I had the Stacked Sandwich with a side salad. At 840 calories it certainly wasn’t my best choice, but it wasn’t the worst either. It was actually totally tasty and I enjoyed every bit.
Grilled seasoned chicken breast, crisp panko-breaded Cheddar
cheese, bacon, tomatoes, Granny Smith apple slices and orange
poppy seed slaw stacked on a fresh ciabatta bun. $12.99
Not much on the agenda for today. I NEED to get in a good workout. I’m thinking of doing the Booty Camp Fitness DVD and maybe a run outdoors. Its cold and rainy, but they are my favorite running conditions. My other option is to hit up the gymbo, as I have to go out for groceries anyways.
I have a can of pure pumpkin to use up. Thinking of making some soup…. anyone have a healthy/tasty pumpkin soup recipe they’d like to share?

I think we're having the same day. Except I got lazy and didn't make my oatmeal. But I did sleep until after 11am and I'm contemplating some sort of at home workout/run in the cold weather.
I will mix 1/2 cup pumpkin with 175 g vanilla yogurt and 1/2 tsp of pumpkin pie spice for "pumpkin pie yogurt". I top it with 1 tbsp sunflower seeds for some crunch (if I had pumpkin seeds, I would do that instead).
I also just made some pumpkin spice muffins from the Crazy Plates cookbook. If you'd like the recipe, my email address is writetolauraDOTmayATgmailDOTcom
Hi Amy,
Do you buy pumpkin oats, or make them up? Where do you buy them, or how do you make them?
Thanks (I like reading your blog...your food always looks amazing).
Vanessa
You look amazing in this picture!
