<\/p>\nHi gang!\u00a0 There was a little excitement today here at the HQ and by excitement I mean almost fainting with a slight chance of vomiting.\u00a0 Fun!\u00a0 That however will get explained in another more in depth post.\u00a0 I know you’re looking forward to it! <\/p>\n
This morning started off pretty normal.\u00a0 When I took Rocky outside I saw some light fluffies on the deck and realized it was snow.\u00a0 I didn’t think much of it and then it started spitting snow a little more aggressively.\u00a0 Whee!\u00a0 We came back inside and I started knocking out some work.\u00a0 I saw more local peeps on twitter talking about snow and that got me excited.\u00a0 YaY snow!<\/p>\n
Then I looked outside and realized that it was seriously snowing, sticking to the roads and everything.\u00a0 I don’t normally run on Monday mornings but I had to get me some of that action!\u00a0 I quickly changed and hightailed it outside for a quick 4 mile loop.\u00a0 Wheee!<\/p>\n
Back home and showered, I made a huge batch of oatmeal.\u00a0 Just plain old oats.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
They were delish!\u00a0 I plowed through the oats and in no time, I’m talking like 1\/2 an hour, I was starving.\u00a0 Like big time, totally empty, almost nauseous kind of starving.<\/p>\n
![\"Apple](\"http:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/12\/OHC-12-07-09_apple-300x225.jpg\" "\\"Apple")
<\/p>\n
I snagged a huge apple.\u00a0 Wasn’t enough.<\/p>\n
I then ate a piece of Ezek bread with PB<\/abbr>.\u00a0 No picture because I was trying to get it in my bellah as quickly as possible.\u00a0 That helped but it didn’t fill me up or anything.\u00a0 It just made me more functional and decrease the level of hunger from red alert to orange.\u00a0 Or yellow.\u00a0 I don’t really know my alert colors too well.<\/p>\n Then I made lunch which was quick and easy.<\/p>\n And also lame.<\/p>\n Canned soup that was supposed to be veggie penne but was more penne and no veggie.\u00a0 Aside from the five carrots and two pieces of celery.\u00a0 Complete with a purple people eater smoothie:<\/p>\n I didn’t eat all of that soup, about half probably.<\/p>\n I putzed around the house doing a whole bunch of things and then got started on dinner.\u00a0 Since it was pretty clear that I didn’t fuel myself properly yesterday and today, and that I needed protein, I busted out the big guns.\u00a0 Prepare yourself.<\/p>\n Yes, that is a burger.\u00a0 I used sirloin (local, happy, you know the drill) and made some burgers for Scott and I.\u00a0 Topped with pepperjack cheese.<\/p>\n Parsnip and sweet potato fries.<\/p>\n I also busted into my stash of frozen summer corn!\u00a0 Oh yeah!<\/p>\n My burgers are mini size.
