Pods

By Marensmorsels @marentweets

Hi blog friends. How was your weekend? Mine was great. I was so productive.

  • Saturday: basketball conditioning and babysitting for two of my favorite kiddos.
  • Sunday: Laundry, cleaned my room, organized a bunch of work stuff, picked up my mom from the airport.

I love when the weekend goes according to plan.

Breakfast

I fried 2 eggs and 1 egg white (for a little extra umph!) in a fry pan topped with salt and pepper. Then I poured some yummy salsa on top.

2 mugs of dark roast coffee.

I love salsa and it’s such an easy way to spice up breakfast.

I almost bought a Keurig Pod Coffee Brewer this weekend.

I really like the pods. Especially since they are

  1. really cool and fancy
  2. I’m totally suckered into the gourmet pods like Pumpkin Spice
  3. easy

I’m the only person at my house that drinks coffee so single serving is right up my alley. But, In the end I decided it’s not the best move. The coffee is a little more expensive pod-style. Plus there’s no option for brewing bigger batches. Sigh… my practical side wins!

Coffee from my plain old 5 cup Coffee Mate. Mark my words… 1 day I’ll brew pod-style.

I tweaked my knee a little. It’s the same knee that was all upset at me after my 1/2 Marathon and it’s a little worrying. I have my second half in a few weeks and I’m missing a lot of training days. If I miss too many more I think I’ll have to skip the race.

It’s nothing too painful or anything like that, it’s just painful enough that running 10ish miles on it sounds like a bad idea. I’m a little hesitant to try running. Eeeek.

Tell me about you!!! I want to know…

How do you decide if an injury is bad enough to skip training?

I usually know if a pain is a bad one or an okay one… when it comes to knees I’m sort of lost.

Do you brew pod style?

Sigh- no.

If you could go to Africa where would you go and why?

Egypt… hello Mummies are cool.

What are you going to be for Halloween this year?

A peacock! I’m keeping it low key though by dressing up, handing out candy at my house and watching some not so scary, scary movies.
