Today was so much fun! I spent all days cycling with some friends. The scenery was so pretty even though there was some smog (as usual). It's such a good way to spend time and catch up with friends I haven't seen in a long while. Although, my bum is a little bit sore after 30 odd km!

I'm going cycling with my friends today, so I made myself a filling breakfast before heading out! Banana berry oatmeal with one egg white, topped with Greek yogurt, and toasted walnuts.

More pancakey deliciousness! Cinnamon spiced banana-egg pancakes topped with homemade chocolate syrup (unsweetened cocoa, raw honey, and water), and fresh chopped strawberries. Delicious!

I woke up this morning and it was a glorious, sunny day in the middle of winter, so I made the most of it and went on an impromptu hike... by myself! It was a good, quick hike, and the view was so pretty at the top. My butt is kinda sore after all the uphill parts though! There were also tons of dogs on the hiking trail today. Made me super happy for the rest of the day! Afterward, I met up with my mom at the farmer's market and had a hearty lunch. Having time to do this kind of things is definitely one of the best things about the holidays!

Quick and simple breakfast this morning. Toasted Ezekial bread topped with natural peanut butter, banana slices, and cinnamon. And also what remains of a hard boiled egg. WHY are they so hard to peel? :(

Today's mix and match lunch: An omelette with sliced mushrooms, tomatoes and onions inside (No cheese - Cheese tastes awful. Please don't hate me) , grilled tofu, and half a slice of walnut rye toast. Added a bit of gochujang on the side to spice things up!

Today's run was awfulllll. It was cold and windy and my ears were really hurting and my trachea felt like it was burning from breathing in the cold air and my lungs weren't working and i had no energy and and it was just plain bad. At least I didn't give up and finished the whole route? I don't think if there's anything positive to say about this. It's about as fast as if I walked the whole damn thing.

Feel amazing with this lower body move.

Start with your feet hip width apart. Begin the move by pushing your leg back, while activating your glutes into a kick style motion. Lower your body down into a squatting position and rise up to the starting position once again. 

Alternate between each leg after and aim for around 10-20 reps on each side, for 3 sets.

This isn't related to health or fitness at all, but I'm feeling so festive and I'm so proud of how this turned out that I wanted to share it anyway! I made a bunch of gingerbread cookies as presents for the kids I teach English to, and I had an absolute blast with it. It was the first time I had ever made cookies at home, so some of them look a bit podgy or cracked, but overall, after all the icing decorations, I think they look pretty darn cute :)

Chocolate banana-egg pancakes to celebrate the start of winter break! Topped with fresh strawberries and some honey. Tasted exactly like the holidays :)  I'm so glad my finals are finally over. I'm getting super super excited for Christmas this year because all my friends from high school are coming back! I'm so excited to see them, I've missed them a lot ever the last semester.
