Hello! How are you doing? Ready for the holidays? Freezing? Eating? Happy? Stressed?
I think I’m all of those things.
I’m super super super tired from being up for the last 20 hours. I don’t know if I should just go to sleep or start crying or have a snack and text old friends. I’ll let you know what I did tomorrow.
Before we get distracted by real life let’s talk about FOOD! I’ve been enjoying a lot of treats lately. It’s not the end of the world (and even if it was I’d want to eat donuts before it all ended no regrets). But, I do need to keep some healthy protein packed snacks around to help prevent an early overdose of Christmas cookies. I mean, it’s coming just not yet.
So here is a round up of my best protein snack recipes. Let me know if you have a recipe to share in the comments or chime in if you try one of these!

Question: On a scale of 1 – 10 how tired are you right now?
1 = Just woke up refreshed and ready to go
10 = Want to slip into a coma for a month
im at an 8 right now…disney vacation plus work trip means no sleep. add in training for back to back half marathons and im seeing double all the time. plus i want to eat all the things…thanks for making me even hungrier!
I was at about a 9.5 after the marathon two weeks ago. Some days off, lots of sleep and time to destress – I’d say I’m at about a 4-5. Hoping to get down to 2-3 over holiday break! 🙂
Happily in Colorado, we have a snow day (I’m a teacher)! I didn’t go back to bed once I found out that we were cancelled, but I’m in my pajamas with my dog on my lap. I’d say, I’m “relaxed with a hint of lazy” on the sleep scale. 😉
gosh, so tired. my alarm went off today (the first of 3), and i just laid in bed, wishing for an extra hour. just an hour! i want to nap 🙁 I can nap on Sunday. I have full packed days of work and social events until I leave LA for the East Coast for good, and then driving friday, saturday, and i’ll be at my parents place sunday to sleep and eat mac and cheese hahaha
I’m like an 8 today. I flew into LAX yesterday too! We left Waco, TX at about 1:45 California time and I forced myself to stay awake until 8 last night so that I could get back to my regular time. Ugh. Work is over-rated.
10. Dead. And I have zero reason to be this tired!
I blame the weather and the gloomy day!
Oh my. I’m totally at a 10.
Ok, that was dramatic. Maybe I’m at like an 8..I’d like to sleep for at least a month. I love the holidays, but why are they so exhausting???
I’m actually not as tired as most mornings. But I have major anxiety about what my workday look like so I kinda would prefer to go back to bed. Love that all your recipes are breakfasty. I like sweet carb breakfasts so pumping some protein into them. Yep. Perfect!
