25

April 27, 2010 by Julie 83 Comments

Exactly 25 years ago today, I was born!

My mom gave birth to a little red-headed baby and I actually had a natural mohawk for my first year on this planet!

Eventually my red hair turned blonde, but I still think it’s crazy that I was a little red-headed baby. 😀

Breakfast

My birthday started out on the perfect note.

How is a Peanut Butter Finger lover supposed to kick off her birthday?

With a peanut butter finger (or two), naturally!

Birthday Peanut Butter Finger

Nom, nom, nom.

Peanut butter was the star of my breakfast!

Peanut Butter Bagel

I topped a toasted sweet wheat Alternative Bagel with creamy peanut butter and a freshly sliced juicy pear.

On the side I munched on a small serving of roasted peanuts.

Birthday Breakfast

PB & P Bagelwich

It was a great birthday breakfast!

Workout

Today’s workout was all over the place!

I wanted to take Sadie for a run to test out my new Garmin now that I think I figured out how to get it to report my statistics in miles vs. kilometers, but I forgot to charge it!

Bummer.

Instead of a run, I hit the gym for quite the random cardio hodgepodge:

  • 2 rounds of the At Home Cardio Blast workout
  • 20 min. elliptical
  • 10 min. run

Jessica’s At Home Cardio Blast workout is so entertaining! It’s perfect for those days where a typical cardio workout on the treadmill or a machine simply won’t do.

Age Old Question

In honor of my birthday, I figured I would turn the tables on you and ask you the age old question:

How old are YOU?

Be sure to follow PBFingers on Instagram and Facebook!

I'd love to connect with you! I am always so grateful when you let me know you tried one of my recipes or workouts and tag me in your photos or updates. Thank you so much!!!

    Happy Birthday Miss J! I’m pretty sure *every* day should start off with a PB finger – I see nothing wrong with that 😉

    I’m 23, with a “golden” birthday on deck this year.

    hope you enjoy the bday!!

    Happy Birthday Julie! I hope you have a great one. Peanut Butter is an excellent way to start any day, but especially a birthday.

    Also, I’m 24 – 25 on August 27th, so I’m a couple months behind you.

    I turned 26 on January 30th.
    Those bagels sound awesome! Did you buy them at a store, or did you have to order them? Do they taste similar enough to a regular bagel? I might have to try them! I LOVE bagels, just not all the added calories! 😉
