Love Of Oats

A blog dedicated to balancing a healthy and fun life… with oats!

Zzzzz…

Before I begin, for those of you who. asked. about. the homemade Larabars, I made Angela’s variation, she truly perfected this recipe – they are awesome and for those of you who commented that it may be time consuming, it really isn’t!!!!  This weekend I’m going to attempt to make the pecan pie version!

Ok, so I felt really tired and drained from the weekend and wound up skipping out on exercise today.  Now looking back I feel kind of blah and wish I did some sort of workout, but oh well, tomorrow’s another day!

Instead of working out, I decided to make Polly’s pancake muffins because they intrigued me so much!  Instead of blueberries, I used 2 chopped apples instead.

They were so simple and I really couldn’t resist having one!

When Bill got home, I had dinner ready.  It consisted of leftover crinkle cut fries, sugar snap peas, and 93% lean ground beef burgers on Arnold’s ww sandwich thins

    It’s good that you found some pickles without HFCS. I know when you posted that yours had that in the, I checked mine, and they were fine.

    I always wonder why pickles sometimes have HFCS! I have noticed that my favorite brand, Clauson’s, has HFCS in some varieties and not in others. So strange!
