Mondays after a holiday might be the worst thing ever. It’s been busy busy busy, and I’m sure it’s the same for most of you!

Last night after posting I had a square of organic, free trade chocolate for dessert.

And since I ate kind of early, I got snacky during my shows later on in the evening. I had a cup of hot tea and some of my Mom’s homemade Chex Mix to tide me over.

My Mom is kind of famous for her Chex Mix. It’s one recipe she refuses to give out. I hope she gives it to me someday, because it is amazing.

All the wonderful sleep I got over the break caused me to stay up tossing and turning for the majority of last night. Needless to say, this morning’s wake up call was not pleasant.

Some warm, comforting oats made it all better though.

This bowl of goodness contained 1/3 cup oats, big ole squirt of agave, the last of my cranberry apple sauce, sweetened coconut and chopped pecans. Loved it. I think I have officially made the transition to oatmeal breakfasts now that it’s getting colder. I may have to try the green oats I’ve been seeing around the blogs so I can still get my morning veggies in.

Well I’m off to tackle my inbox and the other mountains of work that piled up over the weekend. Have a good Monday ya’ll!
