Today was a good day.
I ate a delicious breakfast.
We put up our Christmas tree (it’s never too early!).
I ate leftover turkey for lunch.
We went for a family walk (I think the whole process – from the getting her sweater on to the actual walk – completely tuckered Clara out).
I went for a 3-mile run (it’s ridiculously nice out).
I baked (Katie’s vegan monkey bread that I’ve been dying to try)!
It was unbelievably, ridiculously, over-the-top good.
And I ate leftover turkey for dinner.
If only all days could be like today.
Happy Friday people!

All those pictures of the monkey bread have me drooling. That’s one thing I’ve never made and really need to change that!
Me too! This was my first time making it – I highly recommend Katie’s recipe, it came out awesome!

Thanks!
Yum! Your breakfast looks amazing! What was in it?
1/2 cup Coach’s Oats, 1 tbsp chia seeds, 2/3 cup water, diced apple then topped with BearNaked granola and sunflower butter! It was awesome!
Sounds like a perfect November day
We took advantage of the leftovers as well!
Soooo convenient and delicious!
Your tree looks great! I think as long as it goes up after thanksgiving it’s not too early!
Haha I agree!
That looks really good. I could go for some of that!
By the way – love the tree!
It definitely was really good – I wish I could give you some!! And thank you! We just finished decorating it this morning!
That is almost identical to what my yesterday looked like! Except replace the monkey bread with cookies.
So glad you liked it! Have fun with your family – give Clara a pat for me, she is just so adorable. I wish Punky had sweaters I could stuff her into.
My sister and my mom LOVED it!! My mom printed out the recipe and then we spent about 20 minutes on your blog ogling over adorable Baby A pictures
That monkey bread look wonderfully delicious!! I’m drooling just looking at it.
I love having tons of leftovers to eat the next day too. It’s the best!

Ahh your christmas tree is HUGE I love it!! We didn’t even have one last year! Sob
It didn’t actually feel that christmasy in Cyprus… the sun kinda ruins it! I’m wishing for snow! 
p.s that monkey bread looks insanely good!! I wish I wasn’t such a disaster at baking bread!
I’ll try to send some snow your way (we get too much as it is!). And try this monkey bread, it was so easy!
Oh em gee that monkey bread looks ridiculously good!
It was! It’s nearly gone and it’s only been around for 2 days!
That monkey bread looks mouth-watering good! And your bowl of oatmeal looks so hearty and delicious!
It was SO good – I highly recommend using that recipe! And the oatmeal certainly was hearty – it kept me full for hours!

Just oatmeal with apples and chia seeds then topped with granola and sunflower seed butter

You know, I’ve actually never had monkey bread before but I have always wanted to try it. Maybe I’ll give that recipe a shot
Definitely do – this was my first shot at trying it and it came out awesome!
Your photos just made me crave monkey bread, I will definitely be making it soon!
