Sleep is good!

I managed to turn off my alarm clocks and wake up shortly before 11am. Luckily I didn't have to be anywhere this morning, although I am really good about getting up if I do have something to do. Plus, this weekend isn't going to involve a lot of sleeping, so I just appreciated it. I have a huge to do list to get done, but my whole day was (surprisingly!) free, so here's the afternoon agenda:

• oil change (driving 2 hours north tomorrow and home of Sunday morning)
  
• gym
• laundry
• pack for our out-of-town show on Saturday evening. It's about 5 hours away from me, and I'll be carpooling with the other guys for most of the way. It's our first show in a while, but it's leading into a very busy season for us (our CD release is in 2 weeks! plus a bunch of other shows) so I'm excited!
  
• file papers that have been sitting on my floor for MONTHS
• this might involve purchasing a new file folder since mine is almost full
• on-line banking
• pickup music from a friend for the recording session we're doing on Sunday (RIGHT after I get back into town!)
  

Hopefully I'll get it all done before I catch a live show tonight of an amazing group of musicians, who also happen to be my friends. :)

Breakfast was:

1/2 C oats
1/3 C pumpkin
1 tsp ground flax
6 fresh strawberries (I am HIGHLY creative!)
1 fig (I microwave it in water to soften it up! It's much better this way!)
1 TBSP or so of trail mix, mostly sunflower and pumpkin seeds

1/2 Cottage cheese
1 TBSP PB

I finished the jar! I feel like a "real" food blogger now, since I'm posting pictures of my empty jar.

All gone!

I might have also had another 2 small spoonfuls of PB. Oops.

This is the chocolate PB Loco one.

Some random snacks from yesterday:


No explanation needed. :)

I think this is my favorite flavor of Vitatop.

My leftover whole grain baguette from Panera Bread. Eaten on the way to rehearsal yesterday night. I also had a Light and Fit yogurt at home, but no picture because the roommate was around.

Giveaways:

Nikes and Ponytails (cute name!) is giving away so many awesome foodie finds! Ends Wednesday.

Jumbo Empanadas is giving away a VITAMIX blender. I NEED one of these, so please don't actually enter. :) Ends tonight.

Happy Friday everyone!
