Good morning!
I hope your day is off to a good start!
My Wednesday began with an early morning workout. I kicked off my time at the gym with 20 minutes on the elliptical before completing Workout C from Tina’s Best Body Boot Camp.
Since I’m on week two of phase two of the boot camp, I have already completed Workout C once before and I think I can safely say it’s my favorite boot camp workout to date. It incorporates bursts of cardio with a total body strength training routine that includes five second holds that make my muscles burn. I love it!
Breakfast
Breakfast came together in a flash thanks to a little bit of prep work last night.
I made a batch of overnight oats and topped them with a sprinkling of walnuts this morning.
I also added a splash of eggnog to give the oats a little holiday flare before digging in.
‘Tis the season!
Question of the Morning
- What is your favorite holiday beverage? Eggnog? Hot chocolate? Spiced cider?
I am a sucker for peppermint hot chocolate with extra whipped cream and chocolate shavings. Yes!

3 favorites:
Dark Hot Chocolate w/ Lavendar (local coffee shop)
Hot Chocolate w/ Peppermint Schnapps
Egg Nog McFlurry
I am a HUGE hot chocolate fan, with whipped cream. To be honest I have never tried a peppermint mocha or a peppermint hot chocolate. The combo kind of freaks me out. Not so much for the spiced cider. And as far as the eggnog, I love it in my lattes come November and Decemember. October is my PUMPKIN month.
Eggnog! I’ve been seeing it at the store and want it so, so bad but..I’m trying to hold out till closer till Christmas!
I’m waiting on the eggnog until we put up our tree and decorations – that’s the tradition in my house. 🙂
My absolute Favorite Holiday beverage is Gingerbread Latte from Starbucks! It’s like heaven in a cup. 🙂
Peppermint spiced latte from starbucks and hot chocolate!!!!
I’m not a huge egg nog fan for some reason! My favorite holiday drinks are apple cider and hot chocolate! And, I love to drink anything pumpkin flavored for the whole month of november…and as long into the winter as possible 🙂
Hot chocolate for me! I recently had the salted caramel hot chocolate from Starbucks and it may be my new favorite 🙂
I love chai tea for this time of year. Also, had overnight oats for breakfast this morning. Topped mine with chopped apple, pecans, and some sunflower butter.
You reminded me that I still need to get my workout in. Thanks!
I’m going to sound a little Scroogish but I don’t like any of those drinks. I’ll be drinking some sort of white wine. I’ll put it in a holiday mug. 🙂
hot chocolate (w/ kahlua….shhhh…..don’t tell!)
I’ve never tried eggnog and it’s not overly popular here- although I did see a eggnog breaka here! What does it taste like out of curiosity? My favourite holiday beverage? I don’t know I’m a water type of girl- but I love the novelty of candy canes…although I didn’t have any at all last year or the year before! What have I come to!
Pumpkin spice lattes all the way! I live in Bangkok, and while there are a lot of Starbucks here, their specialties include things like “red been jelly topped green tea lattes” – no pumpkin spice! I would pay a lot of money for a cup of that deliciousness.
I absolutely looooved The Happiness Project, it was full of facts, but down to earth at the same time. I read it twice, then I sold it cause I wanted someone else to enjoy it. You will def like it 🙂
The author really puts things into perspective and makes it easy to relate to your life.
Enjoy!
