I am an ice cream girl all the way, but I called TCBY and they don’t have pumpkin flavor until tomorrow (I’ll be there!). So, tonight I made a warm dessert – Apple PB Oat Crisp. I used this recipe as an inspiration, but with these changes –
– used more oats to cover all the apples
– PB instead of butter (good call!)
– added chocolate chips, because dessert needs chocolate.
Dinner was Pei Wei – I got one of the spicy choices with tofu & veggies. It’s been a long time since we went here because Ben didn’t really like it the last time. Luckily, he was happy with it tonight so we’ll be back!
We started with soup because I was starving!
Earlier in the day I iced my ankle with half a bag of frozen veggies. My ankle has been sore for a while now on and off and I was feeling it today a lot because of the long run. See Ben’s high arch on the right side? He should have been a ballerina. A six-foot two, hairy ballerina.
Lunch was salmon salad on a corn pop I got from the Dutch Market recently. And some chips, no pic. I am very proud of myself for actually eating a real lunch today. I was super close to just grabbing random foods when I got hungry, but this was a better choice.
After errands I had a lot of grapes and seltzer. Te amo uvas.
One of my errands today was a TJ’s stop. Here is their pumpkin 🙂 I love pumpkin and all things Fall! That may be because I am a “pumpkin head” since I have a very large orange colored head and my colors are autumn/fall. Question: Do you know if your complexion season/colors???
Here’s some info to determine your complementary colors if you don’t know it.

That crisp sounds delicious. I like the idea of PB instead of butter for several reasons and now I have plenty of ideas for some dormroom dessert 🙂

Oh my God – the crisp looks delish! Can’t wait to try it. I’m an ice cream girl allll the way too 🙂 I totally get what you mean about grabbing random things for lunch – I tend to do that and then spend all afternoon grazing as well or full but never really satisfied. Blah!! Habits are hard to break! Love your Blog and am glad I found it! Mind if I add you to my Roll??

Using beanut butter instead of butter is pretty genius.
I have cool undertones and am brunette, so apparently I am a winter. My colors are black, navy blue, red, and hot pink. Good thing neon is coming back!! I will look hot this season.

I always ice with bags of frozen veggies. I’m actually about to do just that in a few minutes.

I didn’t know people still did the whole “season colors ” thing. I would have no idea. I could be using all the wrong colors! I better check the article.

just read the article, but I can’t really figure out what “season” I am
I LOVE pei wei – you have to try their chicken salad rolls – I CRAVE them, haha
