Belated Christmas

Posted on December 28th, 2009 by BroccoliHut

As I mentioned in my last post, last night was Christmas Part 2 in the Yoder household. Lea and Ryan have returned from the in-laws’ house in Atlanta (Hi, Sharon, if you’re reading!), so they came over to spend the evening with us and have a belated Christmas celebration. I think they both enjoyed their gifts from Santa:

Lea and Ry also gave me a few presents, both of which were running-related.

First, a little running literature to last me throughout the year…

And a RUNNING SKIRT! After months of seeing them on fellow bloggers’ posts and lusting after one for myself, I finally have one to call my own.

I couldn’t help myself…I had to try it on:

Here’s how I’ve been keeping myself fueled since the last time I checked in:

Sunday

I decided to make my all-time favorite recipe for last night’s festivities. That’s right. I busted out the Cashew Ginger Tofu.

I concluded the evening with a little peach-vanilla hemp action.

Monday

Another record for Caroline’s coldest run this morning: 32 with with a wind chill of 24. When I returned home I just wanted some food fast, hence this morning’s simple breakfast.

It’s HumMonday again! I prepared some of the Peanut Sesame variety this afternoon.

My parents and I had a Skype date with my grandmother, so we had an early dinner this evening. I opted to make simple veggie-bean soup with whole wheat orzo.

I hope you all are having a pleasant start to the week. Rainer and I wish you a good evening:)

    Caroline, you are SOOOO cute in that running skirt I can’t stand it!

    I feel your pain. My run was “feels like 17″ today. It was warmer in Boston! Something’s wrong in this world…

    Happy Holidays, pretty lady!

    Let me know if you like the running skirt – I am debating buying one.

    What thoughtful gifts – and everyone always loves a Kitchen Aid!
