I'm a huge breakfast person. As soon as I get up, I'm starving. As in: must. eat. now. As in: I have stomach hunger pains. As in: don't talk to me until you feed me. However, ever since changing up my daily breakfast routine (for weekdays, at least), I'm not experiencing the major growling stomach as soon as I open my eyes.
It's weird.
All my life I've always woken up starving and the only major thing I've switched up is my Monday to Friday breakfast. I have to link it to the cause. Weird, 'eh?
So, I'm conducting a little study and instead of making my morning easy omelet (at work), I'm going back to toast. As much as it was annoying to wake up with zero energy until I ate, I don't exactly feel 'healthy' putting off my breakfast for several hours (this also throws a wrench into my snacks, and I like to eat... multiple times a day, every few hours... like totally. all. the. time).

Weekend snapshots:
1. Reverse French glitter mani (with OPI's Lincoln Park after Midnight & Sephora by OPI 'It's Bouquet with Me')
2. Dinner @ Wendy's (starting the long weekend off 'right')
3. First wood stove fire of the season
4. Trying oysters for the first time
5. Seafood pizza (lobster, shrimp, scallops & mushrooms)
6. Cottage country
7. Reese's Pieces cookies (and although I didn't eat any, I ate many post-Halloween mini chocolate bars)
8. Mexican omelet (that looks like pizza but isn't)
I made these pumpkin muffins last week and they have been a big hit. They came out kinda wonky looking because they are 'healthy'* and I guess that means they won't be perfect looking, but nonetheless, they're good. The flavour isn't bad, but a regular (fatty) muffin has a ton of sugar to make it sweet and flavourful. You will not get that with this muffin, however, in a rush or pinch, you can down one of these and the guilt doesn't tend to set in like with a normal muffin it would.
Kidding.
Sort of.
* What the heck is 'spelt flour'? No clue, so I used whole wheat (that might explain the deformation?). Also, I couldn't find coconut oil so I used olive (meh).

Whoopsies! I took these photos back in August (aka pre-grey hair) and never got around to posting them, and so, here we are.
So it's Friday! Woohoo! Okay, not exactly true, but tomorrow is a holiday which makes this weekend a long weekend and who doesn't love that?
So lately I've been noticing some changes. Body changes. Dun dun dunnnn. What's up with that? Is my age catching up with me? On top of that, to make matters worse, I'm suddenly addicted to chocolate. Okay wait. That's not true. It's not exactly 'suddenly', and the boat-load of on-sale Halloween candy I bought after Halloween doesn't help, but... well, okay, scratch that point. However, I'm having a tough time getting to the gym. Ugh. I'm still going like two or three (ambitious: four) times a week, but it's a struggle to drag my ass there. Unless it's for my Monday night zumba class, then you know I be gettin' my groove on. So, I guess that's just my body telling me it's time to switch up my routine and so I did just that Wednesday night by hitting a Body Combat class. It's an MMA (mixed martial arts) class (at GoodLife) and it's killer. I did it a couple years ago a few times with a girlfriend, but hadn't been since. What. A. Workout. By the end of the class I was drenched (got the visual?) and had a hard time lifting my arms up in the shower. Success! Hopefully I will be able to work this class into my weekly 'routine' once or (preferably if I can motivate myself) twice a week. However, now that the weekend is here, it's strictly sweets and no gym! Hoorah! ...er, wait, do you think that could my problem? ;)
