It’s a beautiful day!
Today marks another day where I went to bed after 12 and got up around 5. If things don’t make sense here, don’t blame me; blame my lack up sleep.
Is anyone else super worried they’re going to catch that dreaded flu? I swear if someone even sniffs near me I get super paranoid.
I’m a gem.
*****
1. There’s nothing better than the first spoonful of coconut butter right out of the jar.
Tastes like candy, just melt in your mouth delicious.
Is there any surprise I roasted up some kabocha to go with this?
Do yourself a favor when ordering this stuff and stock up on mass quantities.
2. Addicted to caffeine.
My morning started out with life’s finests treasures. Coffee date x 2.
After 4 hours sleep, it was necessary.
3. Winter is having an identity crisis over here.
Not that I’m complaining…fine I am a tad, because I’d just be really pleased with one day of snow.
4. When did water get so flipping expensive?
This morning, I forgot my water bottle at home and since I was at a spin class there is no way ever I could go without water…I went down and had to pay $3.75 for water!
What the what.
How is that even possible?
On the plus side, spin class owned me.
5. I was feeling a little plain Jane this week and decided to spruce up my nails this week with some sparkles.
{ My favorite glittery polishes }
Adding a little bling makes everything better.
6. Some days I just don’t want Dinner and instead snack my way until my later bedtime snack.
Yah, I admit it I’m a snack-o-holic.
Sometimes people even pull out the comments like “you’re eating again…you just ate”.
While I used to be extremely embarrassed by this, I refuse to go on being hungry.
They’re clearly jealous of my eating abilities.
7. I have plans to see Life Of Pi this weekend, but I kind of don’t want to watch it before reading the book first.
Although books are almost always better than the movies, so maybe I’ll just wait until after anyways…
What’s your favorite movie based from a book?
What’s your favorite way to eat coconut butter? If you haven’t tried it, go out right this second and buy some.
What is a confession from your week?
Hope you all have a super swell Friday!
About Lisa
I have Life of Pi sitting on my bookshelf. I’m supposed to be reading for a discussion in my Learning Community at school next week. There just so many other books that I have to read for classes though!
Favorite movie based on a book: WIlly Wonka in the Chocolate Factory or The Devil Wears Prada, or The Princess Diaries I, or Harry Potter. So many good ones!
Favorite use of coconut oil: I love slicing big carrots and then cooking them. Then I top the carrots with a big spoonful of coconut butter and it gets all melty. Like glazed carrots! Sea salt is good on them too.
Oh, I’m kid of jealous you get to read that for school! Haha, I know what you mean about other books though! What are some of your other suggestions? I love books and need some more great ideas! Oh yes, have to agree on willy wonka! Totally forgot about that, but that is a great one! And I’m a sucker for Harry Potter! Yum!! I hate cooked carrots unless they’re roasted. You know I love my coconut, this sounds great!
coconut butter is SO good! i haven’t had any in forever though – i’ve been busy with my coconut oil!
I always go through the coconut butter/coconut oil phases! I guess coconut butter is back for me;)
Love the sparkly nails! So fun! You can take our snow from Boston! I’d love to get rid of it. I swear someday I’m moving to a beach
Happy Friday girl!
Let’s move to the beach together! Ha, I want to as well!
It was the first movie I have seen that was BETTER than the book! You should definitely check it out!
I agree 100% – WAY better than the movie that’s for sure!
The only other adaptation that came close to being better than the book was the Shawshank Redemption.
Oops, meant the movie was way better than the book. I am functioning on so little sleep today my brain isn’t functioning properly.
This makes me super excited now! Even though I’ll still want to read the book too! I still haven’t seen Shawshank Redemption…I should fix that asap.
Oh wow! Now, I’m pretty pumped!
I have not tried coconut butter yet! On the list of things to do. :-p
And if I know the movie is coming out and I haven’t read the book yet, I try to hold off with the book. I’m disappointed with movie adaptations 95% of the time, so I’d rather go in not having my own ideas about the characters and the plotline!
Oh man, Sam you have GOT to try it! Well, if you like coconut that is hah. That’s very true. I’m often disappointed with the cast/plot line as well. So maybe it’s a good thing I haven’t read it.
I have all but given up on getting some snow here in my area
. Winter has definitely been confused lately! Now I am kind of over the cold weather and just ready for Spring time!
I just recently bought coconut oil so I have not cooked with it much, but I have found that it makes amazing grilled cheese and grilled pb and j sandwiches. The bread turns out so perfectly golden and crispy! I need to start trying it with my roasted veggies.
Life of Pi is a great movie! It made me cry a few times, but it was definitely worth it.
It’s making me sad that there’s no snow. Boo to that. Oh, grilled cheese in coconut oil really sounds delicious! Yes, try with roasted veggies! It’s awesome and with nutritional yeast too!
I heard that movie was amazing!! Enjoy
Thanks my friend:)
Life of Pi was amazing, movie and book. I read the book first, a few years ago so I may be slightly prejudiced, but I think you might want to read it first, the book is just too good to let the movie give away the ending!!! But the movie itself is breathtaking
I can’t wait to both read the book and watch it now! Everyone is saying amazing things about it.
I haven’t seen the Life of Pi movie yet, but the book is amazing! I don’t think think it’s always necessary to read the book first, so you should be fine. The Life of Pi might even be better as a movie because the first hundred pages of the book are SLOW!
I’m kinda in your boat on the lack of sleep thing. My friend convinced me to go to a 6:30am yoga class with him today. I feel great NOW, but when my alarm went off at 5:30, I was not feeling it…
It’s always the most painful to actually get out of bed. That’s how I feel. I kind of want to throw my alarm, but after I’m done with my workout I feel a lot better until about 7 pm haha.
I always have to do the same thing, i need to read the book before the movie
I forgot y’all are in celsius and about had a heart attack. Whew!!
I’m always hungry too and I would hate if I wasn’t hungry. That is when the best food creations come about or food tastes the best!
Haha, I should’ve added that it was in celsius! Oops. I hate when I get those days where I don’t feel hungry. Those are the worst. Totally agree.
PS. I tried to leave a comment on your blog, but it wouldn’t let me! Weird. That chocolate sauce you make looks SUPER good!
You and me = on the same page again today! I have been spoon-fulling coconut butter to face is the worst (best?) way lately. I just ordered four more jars last night. Oy.
We are Friday post twins clearly. I like that. I’ve gotten out of hand with the coconut butter! I can’t believe how fast I’ve been going through jars! Yikes!
Seriously, I should just mail you my coconut butter haha I bought it because I wanted to see what all the rage was about and yea…. totally not my thing lol so now it’s just sitting there, staring at me lol only took one small taste of it too!
Oh no! I guess it’s a love/hate thing! A lot of people just don’t like coconut. It’s like cilantro people seem to love it or hate it now in between.
Ick. Sorry to hear about the sleeping probs, hun. I definitely know how annoying those can be, especially when the sleep dep starts to add up. Hope you can catch up on some sleep this weekend! And sometimes there’s seriously nothing better than just snacking your way through the day. That tends to happen to me so often that I’ve stopped bothering trying to fight it.
Happy Friday, love!
I’m hoping I can catch up this weekend too! It seems during the week it gets bad, and it even gets even more worse of better on weekends haha. Hopefully it will be low key this weekend though! Snacks are just ruling my life now, I’ve stopped trying to fight it as well no use being hungry! Have a great weekend!!
What is the name of the color on the left that you used on your nails? So pretty!!!!
It’s called excuse moi! I love it.
I just finished my coconut butter.
Boo!! I need more. I’m waiting for my vitacost order…. I am addicted to that stuff. I love it melted on GF banana bread… or on roasted squash… or by the spoon full! 
You definitely need more! I’m addicted to it too, it’s awful, but I love it at the same time:)
