I’ve had single serve Ziploc bags of pumpkin puree in my freezer all summer and have had zero desire to mix it into my oats…until today. My alarm went off at 5:50 a.m. so that I could start my day the right way – with yoga. I went to a slow, gentle, hot class at Charlotte Yoga and got my triangle, half moon and dancer on as the sun rose. A beautiful way to start the day.
It was cool out when I left yoga and I actually got a little chilled. When I came home to shower and make breakfast I felt inspired to add pumpkin to my oats for the first time this Fall.
This oatmeal included: oats, water, almond milk, banana, pumpkin puree, chia seeds, cinnamon, raisins and a pinch of salt. Topped off with almond butter and Crofter’s and dumped in a jar for portability. (I eat when I get to work.)
What are your favorite Fall foods?
And now…music giveaway winners. I plugged the number of comments into random.org and here’s what we have.

“I haven’t updated my iPod since my wedding in ’08. I only listen to what’s on the radio; I don’t really discover new artists anywhere else. Love learning about new artists though!”

“Oh fun, love new music! I need new music since I’m refraining from purchasing any due to building a house! Every penny counts!”

Speaking of music, we’re heading to the Kings of Leon/Black Keys/Whigs concert tonight and I’m super excited. We’re meeting up with The Yogi Monster Sarah for some pre-show tailgating. Whee!!!
