Workout
I got to the gym and did a quick 10 minute warm up on the elliptical before heading to spinning.
Since I enjoyed the 6 a.m. spin class so much last Tuesday, I made sure to take it again this morning. Unfortunately the instructor announced that she will no longer be teaching on Tuesdays at 6 a.m. What a bummer! I just discovered her awesome class. Oh well… At least I got to enjoy her rockin’ music today. 😀
How good is the song I Gotta Feeling, by the Black Eyed Peas!? I don’ t think I’ll ever get sick of it!
Grocery Stop
After the gym and a nice 40-minute walk with Miss Sadie (she was in prime squirrel-hunting mode today), I showered up and was ready in no time.
Since I seemed to fly through everything, I had some extra time to spare before heading into work this morning and stopped by the grocery store to pick up food for dinner tonight.
The grocery store is so peaceful before 8:30 a.m.
When do you typically do your grocery shopping?
Ryan and I hit up the grocery store on Sunday afternoons most of the time. Sometimes we’ll be lazy and won’t get around to going until Monday nights. The grocery store is a mad house on Mondays!
After my morning grocery run, I came home and unloaded my bag (a green bag, of course 😉 ) before putting chicken in the crock pot. I see BBQ pulled chicken in my future… YUM.
Breakfast
Breakfast was super simple and super tasty!
I enjoyed a hot bowl of old fashioned oats with All the Whey cupcake batter protein powder stirred in for that extra protein punch! I also sipped on free Barnie’s cinnamon butter cookie coffee from my gym. It tastes like a dessert drink. Right up my alley.

We usually hit up the g. store on Sunday afternoons too, but it’s so crazy then!!! Whenever I go on a weekday morning, it’s such a nice, quiet change of pace 🙂
Jessica @ How Sweet says
I NEVER go on Sundays unless I desperately need something..it is always so crowded! We go on Saturdays or even Fridays, or some point during the week. 🙂
Ally @ Sweet & Savory says
I’m wondering how you make your bbq pulled chicken, as I posted on my blog a few weeks ago, the simpliest recipe for it! I used pork that time, but chicken works just the same!

it’s so easy! just put can of chicken broth & a couple of large chicken breasts in the crock pot on low for 6-8 hrs & top w/ bbq sauce after removing the chicken & “pulling” it with two forks. so delish!

Jamie (Food in Real Life) says
That coffee sounds heavenly! I go to the store in the mornings before work or on days I have class during the week. I try and avoid it on the weekends since its such a zoo!

I go to the grocery store on random mornings…like Wednesday morning at 9:00…it is EMPTY! Love it and thankfully my job allows me the flexibility to do that!
