Morning! I tried to do a run this morning, but yesterday’s double run left my knee a bit tired. I like to be super cautious about that, so I walked instead. I’m going to do some abs and arms after my dentist appointment and am formally announcing it so I’ll stick to it!
After my 3 mile walk I came home HUNGRY and decided a high volume breakfast was in order. Whenever I want to pump up my meal I add tons of veggies – in this case I added a cup o’ pumpkin to my honey yogurt. (I think pumpkin is technically a fruit, but has stats similar to a veggie.)
I paired the big yogurt bowl with a bagel.Everyone keeps asking about the Trader Joe’s Mango Butter… Yes, it’s amazing. Yes, I eat it by the spoonful straight out of the jar. Yes, I realize that is doing me a disservice.
Remember my whole root canal debacle? Well, today I’m getting my permanent cap. I am soooo over the dentist. Wish me, my mouth and my wallet – good luck!
See ya later

Yuck, I hate going to the dentist. Not the worst thing, but not fun! Hope it all went well.

Pumpkin with yogurt (and CINNAMON) is such a wonderful combination!! I assume that’s what’s on top…
Elena @ GagaForGrapefruit says
do you use a whole can of pumpkin or just a half? sometimes it’s totally overpowering but i feel like i just use too much! i need to work on my ratios
runeatrepeat says
I used about 3/4-1/2 cup depending on what I’m making. It would be less than 1/2 a can of the 15oz ones (most of the time I buy the big cans though and roughing estimate the amount).

On the bright side – if they are putting in the permanent cap it should be fast.
The pumpkin yogurt looks yummy:-)

I HATE ROOT CANAL’S!!!!! I need that mango butter. Can I come with you to TJ’S when I am in Cali and you can show me the best of everything!?!?!
runeatrepeat says
We will totally hit up TJ’s and Cafe Rio and Yogurtland! It will be epic.
Jamie@everydaydolce says
I’m impressed by your double run yesterday! Hope you have a great day, I’m lovin’ the mango butter! TJ’s just knows how to do it…
Karla says
Eating Mango Butter is probably better than eating Nutella by the spoonful out of the jar. That is most definitely doing me a disservice. Such is life.

Ahh! Root canals… I’ve had two. It was unpleasant but I will say this, I was once on a mission trip and chipped my tooth chewing BUBBLE TAPE. Due to the circumstances I had to get it pulled (after a month of antibiotics), and let me tell you, I would get 100 root canals before I let a dentist do that to me ever again LOL!
After that, my fear of dentists was pretty much over.
I am glad your at the end of that bridge 🙂
Kate @ NaturaStride says
YUM I need to get me some mango butter stat!
Oh my goodness – I went through root canal hell about a year ago. I wouldn’t wish that on anyone – glad it’s almost over!
Gavi @ Gavi Gets Going! says
Good luck today–I hope your visit is painless and FREE (just kidding…but at least relatively inexpensive!)!
