Cinnamon and Cereal

Breakfast

FacebookTweetPin
12 Feb

I have been adding cinnamon to our coffee grounds to make a yummy cinnamon flavored brew without buying a specialty coffee. I used to add it to the cup directly, but this works well too 🙂

This morning I was hungry and wanted to eat “a little something” while getting ready/before going to the gym to take a walk. I put a little cereal in a bowl and ate it. Then, I wanted more so I took a little more. Finally, I decided this was breakfast NOT “a little something”. I had to commit to cereal as my breakfast and not cereal in addition to the breakfast I was already planning. I added half a naner with AB for staying powder.

After a walk on the dreadmill, while talking to my mom 🙂 I came back for a shower and an apple.

Someone living near the gym was cooking bacon and it made the whole gym smell.

And someone keeps peeing in the snow around here!? Seriously?See you later 🙂

    I used to drink honey/cinnamon tea. It’s really delicious and tricks my mind into thinking that I’m losing weight. The tea is supposed to help you lose weight. But I don’t know if that’s true. But then again, they say cinnamon itself will help with weight loss. So maybe….

    LOL! If the pee is in a concentrated spot, it’s a dog. If it looks like someone tried to spell their name in it…it’s a guy. 😉

    your cinnamon trick is very clever. and good for you for recognizing that breakfast isn’t for “just a little something”

    I love adding cinnamon the second time around on my 1-cup brewer. I feel so frugal 🙂

    I put cinnamon in the filter too! Well, that is once in a blue moon when I actually make my own coffee.

    I sure hope it’s a dog peeing in the snow!

    The cinnamon in the grounds is something I’ll have to try! Used to put it directly in my cup, but it made the coffee weirdly gritty…
