looking forward to the weekend.

aloha.


hmm let's start with a little gift for you ;)

checking out jealously the quakers products available in the U.s.

 (we just have the very simple oats :( no larabars,1 brand 

nut-butters,no cliff bars,no TJ,no flav.oikos,only 1 cottcheese.....

(i should move!)

well i found this on their website:

http://www.quakeroats.com/cooking-and-recipes/content/quaker-instant-oats.aspx

big gallery AND you can create your own crazy oatmeal haha :)


so now from the virtual food to the ehm...slightly more real food :



breakfast : 

actually i had prepared a very nice bowl of "overnight.oats.bircherstyle. "

but this morning,i decided to be spontaneous,so i walk over to the fridge,

took one egg-white,mixed it in my oats and chased them to the oven :)

> flavorful amazing oatmeal ,the texture is very different if you let the 

oats soak before heating them.

(oats & flaxseed & 1apple(shr.) & 0.5banana(mash) & nut+driedfruitmedley 

& soymilk(+h2o) & cinvan & eggw)


right after the picture: switched the GIANT pancake into a bowl,i don't 

know why,but i always prefer to eat out of bowls rather then on plates,

i even cut my sandwiches in pieces and put them in a bowl to eat them 

with a spoon haha :)


dinner last night,made in a rush as i was very hungry...

fastvegchilly(can.tomatoes,black beans,ypepperchills,CHILLLLI,carrot&feta )

+ "breadchips" + carrot,raisin,cashew,cinnamon,ojuice,iceberg salad

again i m having such a bad headache,and i am awake since 3...:/

but my morning was very nice AS i took a class in a new yogaclub

so far i might have done yoga like 3 times in my life,but i though 

it would be a good idea to take some lessons,this might help to 

feel better ,to be more aware of my body,his needs,

to "distress" ,find an inner balance..less sleep troubles,

more zen...blablabla ;)

in fact it was really nice,i was impressed by the passion the 

instructor had for his work

it was really contagious !

nice thing 2 : there were no mirrors...i remember my old ballet 

lessons,seeing myself wherever i looked...

it's so much better/healthier to listen to your body from the inside,

instead of  judging it by a fake reflection.

so i m gonna return to this course and hope that i will find my inner

balance haha :)


what about you?


yoga?when yes,has it helped you?


facing the same bowlphenomen aka. platephobia? ;)

  2. Hey girlie! Wow everything looks and sounds heavenly :D I LOVE the grain bread. Yoga is such a great part of my life--it has helped me appreciate my body for what it CAN DO vs. what it looks like. I love feeling strong, challenged, and at peace after a class.

    p.s. thank you for the romance advice hehe :D

    p.s.s. the tomatillo doesn't taste like the typical tomato. It's actually not in the tomato family--it's related to the gooseberry. Hmm.. I'd say the flavor is tart :)

    XOXO

  6. Your foods look delish! I love the heart on the oats :)

    I started yoga since beginning my recovery and found it really helped. I love how it makes my body feel and how much stronger I feel, and more in tune with my body. Plus it's really helped me with relaxation, and it keeps me grounded. I hope it does all these things for you as well :)
