I sampled TJ’s pumpkin ice cream the other day and wasthisclose to buying it. My freezer is already over flowing so I opted out. But, I was on a mission for pumpkin ice cream so I made my own…
I mixed Oikos frozen yogurt with pumpkin, splenda, pumpkin pie spice and a splash of milk. Blend. Add toppings.
I put it back in the fro-yo container for fun.
Jacky from Jax House left a link to this video in the comments this morning. It’s called “The Day After the Marathon” and I can totally appreciate it. Ben always asks me if I’m sore after my long training runs and I never am. Well, I’m sore today (and was pretty tragic yesterday)! Makes me think I don’t run hard often enough.
Who cares what some random blogger (read: me) eats?! Let’s check out what Michelle Obama eats here!
See ya later 
Ooooo, good idea with the homemade pumpkin ice cream. How was it???
I sampled that ice cream at TJ’s too. I went back like 3 times (because I needed to make an informed decision). I didn’t buy it either, but I am still thinking about it!
Haha, what a great video… so true of pretty much every difficult run 😉
I am so sore from my half on the weekend and thought it was strange because I never felt like this at all during my training. It was only 3 extra miles than my last long run the weekend before yet I feel like I ran the entire marathon! Must be the mad sprint I did at the end 🙂
I’m hoping hockey works out the kinks tonight. Either that or I’m going to be in a whole new world of hurt tomorrow. My bets are on the latter.
No joke, I had the EXACT same thing for dessert last night. I am obsessed with the frozen oikos! Add in some pumpkin and spices, and it was pure bliss.
omg, absolutely loved the “day after a marathon” video. i felt *exactly* the same way!!!! always nice to see i’m not alone in stuff like that …
I love the flora commercial!
That ice cream concoction looks so good!
I’m so glad I’m not famous. I wouldn’t want everyone scrutinizing every thing I do or eat!
I know! This picture mid-bite would make me mad.
OMG, that video is hilarious! The one with the guy at end with the chafed nipples made me laugh out loud. Ouch!
oh and going downstairs…yep, harder then upstairs.
hahaha that video is basically spot on. i love the bloody nipples at the end. the worst part about being sore for me is sitting…i.e., going to the bathroom is really hard. hahah
I. Love. That. Video. I might have to bookmark it so I can watch it at random times.
That video is hilarious. Is pumpkin ice cream appropriate for breakfast. I really wanna make that right now.
I think you had the right idea of making your own pumpkin ice cream… not only more economical and space saving… but probably way more nutritious too! Awesome idea 🙂
I sometimes think I am not working hard enough If I don’t feel a little sore…. But really I think if your long runs feel great, and you are happy with your time and you’re not sore that would tell me you’re in great shape…. and does not mean you’re not working your body hard but pushing yourself beyond your current limits will make you sore… I still think you are working hard on on your runs currently!
Looks pretty good to me! And good thinking about putting it back in the carton–it just tastes better that way!
I get a kick out of how worked up the media gets over Michelle Obama’s eating habits (“LET’S SEE IF SHE EATS PERFECTLY EVERY SECOND OF EVERY DAY JUST BECAUSE SHE PROMOTES HEALTHY EATING!”). Uhh, hello media, no one is perfect and part of healthy eating is having some fun in moderation. I’m glad to see that Michelle isn’t afraid to be “caught” having less-than-healthy choices once in a blue moon!
Youre pumpkin ice cream looks awesome!
I have been looking for the Ben and Jerrys pumpkin cheesecake ice cream everywhere and I can’t find it.
You’re a genius! 🙂
