Monday Mornings...

GOOD MORNING! HAPPY MONDAY! 
Normally Monday mornings can rough... but seeing as my schedule has changed...this morning has been very productive!

After a nice workout and yoga session (Vinyasa Yoga: http://www.youtube.com/user/sadienardini) I did a 40 minute video & an 8 minute video for "quick abs". Very relaxing way to start the morning! 

For breakfast Oatmeal & Banana:

Ingredients: 
1/4 oats
Add milk or water (I use milk for taste) until oatmeal is just covered 
a touch of cinnamon

Directions:
Microwave the ingredients above for about 2 mins. Watch it as Oatmeal may rise and flow over!
Add any fruit....today I opted for banana

Yummy!
