See that?
Steam!
Oh how I love the smell of a freshly brewed cup of coffee. It infuses the whole house with a cozy, comforting scent that I simply adore.
This time of year makes me miss the Barnie’s Santa’s White Christmas free coffee that my old gym used to have during the month of December. It may be time to buy some to have on hand at home.
I sipped on my coffee while eating an unusually dense batch of Greek yogurt protein pancakes.
I think they were a little heartier because I used Coach’s Oats rather than regular old fashioned oatmeal which made them chewier, but still delicious!
The oats are microwavable like regular old fashioned or instant oats, but have a creamier texture similar to steel cut oats that typically take longer to prepare on the stovetop.
I received the Coach’s Oats to try through FitFluential, a new community of fitness and health-minded people.

I topped my pancakes with syrup and chia seeds.
Workout
Before breakfast, I completed a workout that began with 20 minutes on the elliptical, followed by 15 minutes of stretching and foam rolling. My ham strings are sore from yesterday’s leg workout!
I then did an upper body workout that looked like this:
My arms already feel a little sore!
Time to power through my latest freelance assignment. Deadline = Tomorrow morning. Hoping to send it in before dinnertime today!
