I Heart Food (& The Internet Too)

Even though I love different breakfasts and don’t always stick with the same, I tend to go back to oatmeal all the time. We just can’t be separated!

Also: Why I lived for more than 20 years without almond butter is completely beyond me.

+ Even a closer close-up of the gorgeousness.

Filling and hearty and FULL OF LOVE!

Ok, I’ll stop drooling now. Foodies are so weird, they get overly excited because of one small dish. Those people are nuts! ;)

No wait, I lied (about the stopping part that is)! I’ll continue with foodgasms. Ha!

Today I bought some hummus and a tomato spread. You know, I needed some party friends for these guys:

Match made in heaven. Some people think that this couldn’t possibly be a satisfying lunch but I felt super snacky today and craved veggies.

I had this hummus before and it truly rocks my world.

The tomato paste was new to me and I decided to give it a try.

OH MY STARS!

This was so amazing! I’ve never thought of combining sun dried tomatoes and tahini but it works so well!

I had one tablespoon of each for some dipping action.

Crunch crunch. Truly heavenly. The good stuff was followed by equally amazing food:

May I repeat myself? I’ve missed out! This is like a classical PB&J sandwich but with rice cakes, almond butter and a lovely new spread:

I picked it up at the health food store a few days ago and opened it today and noticed today that 75% of it is fruit AND it’s sweetened with agave. Yay!

Plus it’s also really yummy. :)

Today hasn’t been the most exciting day but I slept in until 7:30am which was quite the miracle. I’ll meet up with the boyfriend for a run after work though. You know, I actually hate running in the dark and didn’t do as much running in the past few weeks as I liked because I was simply scared to slip on that freaking ice! The ice is gone now though and it’s getting really warm (down here.. not in the mountains :) ) it almost feels like spring! Love it!

If you like running/jogging: Do you sometimes have troubles with seasons? (Like yours truly who can only run in the morning/evening when it’s super dark in winter)

I’m actually on my lunch break right now and currently searching some information for our getaway on Easter! We have planned to go to an amazing area and I’ll share more info with you when the details are clear. Just one word: Italy! ;)

Oh I can’t wait! Even though I love my job and life I really need to get away from time to time. It’s pretty handy that I live in Switzerland because there are so many pretty things to see, plus so many great countries are near by!

30 days shred update: Well I wrote that I’ll stick to it and I really wanted to but only my laptop can play American DVDs. And you all know that my laptop is currently ill with the flu ;) . To be honest, it’s pretty annoying and I can’t wait for it to get fixed. I wish Selina had one too but nope, it has always been super handy to use mine. ;)

Are we too addicted to the internet?
Would you be ok without your laptop/PC/notebook/..whatever?

Let me know what you’re thinking! :)

  1. I can’t even go a day without my precious oats for breakfast… I love them so much that I don’t even bother trying to switch it up anymore :) And I got you beat on the almond butter! 24 years without it, here. Mainly because I grew up believing I was allergic to all nuts when it turned out to be only an allergy to peanuts. Thank.God.

    Hi, my name is Amanda and I’m an Internet addict. Seriously. I can’t go a day without it. If my ISP is having issues and my net is down, I freak! I was without my laptop for a week last year when it broke, and I was like a fish out of water; I just didn’t know what to do with myself :( I think I have a problem…

    Ooh I’m going to try to recreate the sun dried tomato paste with the sundried tomatoes you sent me!! Looks delicious!
    Running outside in the winter sucks. I run on the road instead of the sidewalk because the roads are plowed and the sidewalks aren’t. Since I run alone for the most part, I never run at night. Safety first! Be careful with that ice!

  3. Oh geez; I’m WAY too addicted to the internet. It’s only gotten worse since I got my i-phone. I feel like I’m wired/connected 24/7.

    That hummus looks like the perfect snack-y lunch!

  4. GIRL your meals are fantastic! taht picture made me DROOL

    it is crazy how connected we al need to be sometimes to the computer and internet. need reservtions? just go on the internet and make them? need a workout idea? internet! to every question there can be an awnser on the internet!! its crazy. I love it and hate it all at the same time haha

  5. Ildie says:

    You know where I stand with the addiction. I NEED MY DAILY FIX! Your oats made me drool sister. It looks SO GOOD!

    That tomato stuff looks amazing! I don’t think I’ve seen anything like that around here. Yes.. Yes I am jealous!

    XO

    i’m clearly addicted to the internet, but i refuse to give it up. what are those things in your first pics? chia seeds? interesting! i LOVE sundried tomato hummus, so im sure i’d love what you tried!i just love hummus in general…mmmmm

  8. kilax says:

    Sundried tomato + tahini?! Sounds like a match made in heaven.

    I initially have issues switching seasons, but get used to it. I learned to enjoy running in the dark this winter. It’s kind of nice and solitary. I never run on the ice either, though.

    I am online too much. I don’t think I could go without my computer for more than a couple of weeks!

  9. coco says:

    i love your oatmeal picture, soo pretty! :)
    I can’t even think without internet, i need it for work, for leisure, for blogs.. I’m really addicted to it. But when i go on vacation, i am okay. :)

    I like to be adventurous in my eating…but secret is, I still turn to my oats every night, just because I love them so goddamn much, and they’re just so comforting! :D

    I’m soooo addicted to the internet too! That’s the first thing I care about when I get up in the morning! And before I go to bed! lol

  11. Oh girl I spend so much time on my computer it’s insane!!!!!!!! blogging is a full time job if you let it be! I mean I love blogging and reading blogs but yes, alot of ‘puter time!
