<\/a><\/p>\nThis is in response to his message to me this morning which said, “Have fun run!”.\u00a0 Do we not just love him or what? \u00a0 My pace was a little slower this morning at 10:30min\/mile but I can dig on that.\u00a0 My right ham is a little tight but not overly so.\u00a0 I’m going to stick with six for a while and also start my physical therapy exercises up again at least once a week to work the hamstrings and get them back in order.\u00a0 Adding miles and running long distances come winter is what will prove challenging I think.\u00a0 Running in the cold for 4 miles is no big deal but more than that when the temps are in the teens might be a bit hard. Eeep!<\/p>\n

I had a nice glass of CS<\/abbr> and took Rocky out for a short walk.\u00a0 I was freezing cold so I had to hurry back home.\u00a0 Being sweaty and going out in the chilly morning air doesn’t work I guess. :p\u00a0 In my defense I do put on more layers for his walk but that is not cutting it.<\/p>\n I stretched really well and then showered and tossed on my comfy robe.\u00a0 Time to refuel!<\/p>\n Some 2% Fage and chocolate granola!\u00a0 With extra cranberries on top.\u00a0 I had (still have!) a huge craving for chocolate today and Sundays are a great time to give in.\u00a0 Who am I kidding, any time is a great time for chocolate!<\/p>\n Lately Scott and I have been using 2% organic milk + some cane sugar in our coffee in the mornings.\u00a0 We ran out of creamer and had the milk on hand so used that.\u00a0 We made a quick stop at the store yesterday and a 1\/2 gallon of Meijer organic milk was the same price as a small bottle of Meijer organic creamer. :WTF:<\/p>\n So yeah, we just got the milk instead.\u00a0 Stretch that buck, right?<\/p>\n Then I chilled it on the couch for a bit while sipping my coffee and eating breakfast.\u00a0 Eventually I headed over to the kitchen for some dinner prep and to get started on Sunday Breakfast!<\/p>\n New things to try out today!\u00a0 For Sunday Breakfast we had:<\/p>\n Cider Pumpkin pancakes.\u00a0 I made these with spelt flour which is new to me.\u00a0 My first time using it and I have to say I’m pretty pleased with the results.\u00a0 These pancakes also had cornmeal as well which is why they looked textured.<\/p>\n Fruit salad, and more yogurt for me!\u00a0 Pineapple and orange slices in Oikos vanilla yogurt.<\/p>\n Fall Mim-Faux-Soas!\u00a0 Apple cider + cranberry juice + seltzer = delicious<\/p>\n And also some new chicken sausage.\u00a0 No close up because sometimes a sausage in your face doesn’t look so edible even if it totally is!\u00a0 These sausages were weird and I probably would not buy them again.\u00a0 I’ll do a review on them for ya. After breakfast, I did kitchen clean up and a little more prep work.\u00a0 Scott headed out to mow our beast of a lawn.\u00a0 Him having a bit of free time and it not raining outside have finally coincided so he was able to mow.\u00a0 I worked on my Chocolate Zucchini Bread<\/a> post.<\/p>\n My bellah eventually started rumbling and Rocky was prancing around (i.e. up my butt) wondering where his dinner was.\u00a0 I fed him and then pulled the chicken out of it’s brine.\u00a0 I also had a wee snack.<\/p>\n Occasionally in the huge box of Rocky’s chicken backs, we’ll find chicken legs which is just more chicken for us. No problem my love!<\/p>\n I had some other chicken legs in the freezer so I used those in addition to the stowaway chicken leg from yesterday.\u00a0 Cider and cranberry juice brined chicken legs roasted in the oven with some root veggies.<\/p>\n Delicious!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\nCheese crackers, crunchy cheesy goodness.<\/p>\n\u00a0 We found one yesterday and Scott said he wanted some roast chicken.<\/p>\nWhy do I always look like I’m 8 feet tall compared to my kitchen?\u00a0 Goodness!\u00a0 Don’t be jealous of my flannel jammie pants now. <\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
