Pumpkin Smoothies to Bonfires

Guess it is fall around these parts!

I'm feeling ever so slightly better (but also kind of braced for the next shoe to drop... I never feel like life ever evens out, but is a series of short highs and intense lows... TRYING to have a rosier outlook!)

Some nice things from the last day or two:

Paleo Pumpkin Smoothie! - put 2 bananas, can of pumpkin, several cups of flax milk and cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice in the blender ... Come out with several servings if a delicious pumpkin smoothie!!!

No high fat/high cal/chemical pumpkin coffee "drinks" for me this year!

What else?

Ah yes, my favorite! Breakfast for dinner!


Chris made a lovely tomato spinach omelette for me :)

Finished off last night with a bonfire with friends - got to wear a hoodie and fuzzy boots and feel super cozy.




Chris is off hiking today (something that would be as scary/challenging as our last .. He thought it would not be a good hike for either me or Koda, so the dog and I are going to walk to our city's big park and play :)

That's all- some light and fun after my doom and gloom!

  1. Glad you are feeling a bit better about things, life is too short to sweat this stuff. The bonfire sounds and looks like a great time. Enjoy your walk with Koda.

  2. Fall has really fallen like a ton of bricks. No more sandal-wearing weather here :(
    Glad you are starting to feel a bit better about things. Taking pleasure in the small things and living in the moment might help.
    I did try a pumpkin spice latte this morning for the first time since everybody is talking about it ... and just no, never again. I'll give your smoothie recipe a try tomorrow :)
