Before we get started, yesterday I announced who won the online personal training giveaway! I haven’t heard from the winner yet, so if you didn’t already, check it out to see if you won 
Happy Tuesday to ya!
Two Things I’m So Over Right Now
Oats. I had a bowl of pumpkin oatmeal last week and I had to choke it down. Ever since, I have steered far away. I’m sure the craving will come back, but for now, I’ve moved on to another breakfast craving (scroll down to next category.)
Flavored coffee:
Back in August, I placed a huge K-Cup order on Keurig.com. Turns out, our processing got messed up (well, theirs did) and it took 3 weeks for us to get the order. Not that I’m bad mouthing Keurig. A) it happens, and b) we got 3 free k-cup boxes out of the deal. Anyway, while we were out of coffee, I bought Africana coffee, and organic, medium, but strong flavored coffee. Now my previous beloved wild blueberry tastes like water. Same thing happens when I get on a Sam Adam’s kick and then try to go back to Bud Light.
Two Things I’m Completely Obsessed with Right Now
Fall trail mix. I saw this idea in one of my many magazines, and went out to the store, bought some cereal, m-n-m’s, and candy corn (ha, just kidding I already had some) and made this trail mix:
2 c. corn or rice chex
2 c. honey nut or cinnamon (or whatever kind you want) Cheerios
1 c. peanuts
2 c. candy corn
1 c. candy corn MnM’s
Toss in a bowl. Take handfuls to the face.
Frozen waffles.
I went through this box way too quickly. I’ve been enjoying a couple waffles spread with either Justin’s Maple Almond Butter or some cream cheese. So delish.
Two Books I’m Reading
Still reading The Lion’s Game:
And loving it still! It’s pretty riveting in that I-hope-they-catch-the-terrorist kind of way 
Currently re-reading:
I’ve read this book before, but I stumbled upon it the other night when I was cleaning our bookshelf. I remember really enjoying it, and I think my faith really needs it right about now.
Two New Websites I’m Loving
If you’re like me, you have pinned a billion and one DIY projects and recipes that you’ve yet to even look at again since you’ve pinned, let alone try. Wonder no more! This woman takes your pins, and actually tries them out, and then writes about whether they work/taste good or not. Pretty cool, right?
Going Home to Roost/Roost Tribe:
This past weekend I signed up for the Roost Tribe, a membership through Coming Home to Roost which doles out blog help, graphics, patterns, tutorials, step-by-step recipes, printable greeting cards, resources, backgrounds, coupons, and MORE. For $5 it sounds like a steal. I’m super excited to get started If you’d like to check it out, head over to Bonnie’s website.
Two Items I’m Coveting
MOAR PJ’s!
I got the above PJ’s in pink stripe the other day on an impulse online buy, but I want another pair in leopard. I love them because they come in longs. One of my favorite things in the world is (trying to) sleep in on the weekend, and drink coffee in my PJ’s and robe. Favorite.
Right as Rain Jacket:
I need this jacket! I don’t have a rain jacket, and this one looks perfectly warm and snuggly – and cute. Also, anything else in the “what’s new?” section on lululmon.com – like THIS.
Have a terrific Tuesday!
What are you so over right now?
The HORROR – you couldn’t choke down your oatmeal?? How tragic! I hope the craving for it comes back soon, hehe. I’m oatmeal obsessed clearly
PS. thanks to you, I now NEED that rain jacket too, like really need it. omg it’s so cute and I seriously have never had a legit raincoat before. This one is perfect, ha!!
PPS I need to read that Joel Osteen book too I think, I have read one of his other books and love his Sunday sermons, his words are just so simple and always hit at the right time, huh?

I’m a little concerned by the “over oatmeal” statement especially as we’re entering the PUMPKIN oatmeal season! gasp!
I also have been kind of obsessed with the whole grain blueberry waffles my parents have in their freezer – so good with some apple butter and peanut butter!

I’m so over pumpkin beer right now. I’m not a huge fan, and I accidentally purchased a 6er this weekend of “harvest ale” that tasted pretty pumpkin-y to me. Bummer. Oh well… still better than bud light. haha

definitely was over oats this summer! I am slowly brigning them back but I don’t know how I ate them everyday!! Oh the trail mix looks good and that lulu rain jacket is to die for
I love frozen waffles, but I never think to get them because of, well, oats
I’m still having those for breakfast, the craving hasn’t stopped yet. I am obsessed with all things fall. I love this season!

Love everything about this post! I need to try that fall trail mix! Sounds amazing! I just signed up for the roost tribe too and am so excited to check it all out! Haven’t had time to explore the site yet but I can’t wait! I am a part time educator for Lulu and I can’t get enough of that right as rain jacket! It has so many cool features and looks absolutely adorable on everyone!

Oh as of the last week or so, I’ve been loving oats! Hot oats in particular. And that trail mix looks so very addicting! I love that combo of sweet + salty… especially when candy corn is involved!

I have never heard of Pintester. I cannot wait to waste endless hours on this website!
Alysha @Shesontherun recently posted..Race Dreams
Oh it’s a time suck for SURE. I don’t know where hours 6:45-8:00 went last night
Ummm, WHY have I never thought to put candy corn in trail mix??? That’s genius & going to happen very soon! And I noticed that Lulu jacked on their website the other day, super cute. Personally I’m over moving which will wrap up this weekend when the movers come & also (getting too deep probably) going to work everyday & feeling like I don’t make a difference. Sighhh. Hopefully Fall = change in the air

While I like pumpkin stuff, I cannot stand pumpkin oats. I like the cold as overnight oats though. Go figure.
I’m on a protein pancake bender right now. And crab… but not with the pancakes.

You know…I don’t think I do either. I think that’s what turned me off! It just tasted…like mush
I love trail mix… especially when all of the components are sugary and delicious!

That cereal mix…I need that! I love the pumpkin candy corn! I’m going to give you the benefit of the doubt on the oatmeal…how can you ever fall out of love with the almighty oats?
I hope you had a great day Paige!
