Let me start off by telling you that I split TWO Cabin Fevers with Scott last night while we sat on the couch and watched TV.  Do I feel guilty about it?  Nope, they were fabbo and it was his birthday!  He still had more than I did but they were oh so tasty and I was loving every minute of it.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3619\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3619\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3619\" title=\"ohc-02-15-09_dessert\" src=\"http:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/ohc-02-15-09_dessert-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Grown up cookie \" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/ohc-02-15-09_dessert-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/ohc-02-15-09_dessert.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3619\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Grown up cookie <\/p><\/div>\n<p>I will also tell you that we split a sweet treat!  His birthday dessert was a big honkin&#8217; oatmeal cream pie that we bought from <abbr class='c2c-text-hover' title='Whole Foods'>WF<\/abbr>.  I figured I would have a bite or two and be done with it.  Sweets aren&#8217;t really my thing plus I assumed the cream in the middle would be way too sweet sugary for me.  Well I was wrong and we split that cookie between us while sipping on the 2nd Cabin Fever.  Whoa, definite indulgent night for me!  But it&#8217;s all good.  We watched two episodes of Planet Earth and then like an old lady, I headed up to bed at 10:30pm.<\/p>\n<p>I woke up this morning at 7:30, so not a shabby night of sleep.  I was surprised how cold it was when I took Rocky out for his potty run.  Brrrr!  Sadly I could not come in and make oats because we still haven&#8217;t gone to the store and it&#8217;s getting bare bones around here oat and veggie-wise.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3620\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3620\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3620\" title=\"ohc-02-16-09_breakfast\" src=\"http:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/ohc-02-16-09_breakfast-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"fuel \" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/ohc-02-16-09_breakfast-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/ohc-02-16-09_breakfast.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3620\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">fuel <\/p><\/div>\n<p>Instead I opted for some yogurt with:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>3\/4 scoop of vanilla protein powder (soy)<\/li>\n<li> 1 TBSP of ground flax<\/li>\n<li> Bear Naked banana nut granola<\/li>\n<li> Cranberries<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All with morning coffee + creamer this morning which was amazing!  The coffee was spot on!  I read some blogs and tried to get a little more caught up on office things.
