An interview with me! And remember, there’s no wrong way to eat a Reese’s.

I made a new breakfast today that I thought I would share, since it was sweet and delicious! Since I eat breakfast at work, it’s hard for me to easily make things, and I usually wind up with Vanilla Chobani + Pumpkin Butter (which I love!) Today, I had a new idea. I micrwoaved Egg Beaters to make scrambled eggs and then mixed in ricotta cheese and a little bit of pumpkin butter. YUM!

Anyway, my blogger friend selected me for a blog interview. She chose some questions, and now I will answer them honestly.

Questions for Dori

1) If you could be stuck on an island with only 3 foods, what would they be? 
– French Toast/Pancakes (Yes, I know this is 2, but I count them as 1. Don’t make me choose!)
– Thin Mints
– Nachos with the works (must have lots and lots of cheese)
Nachos. Mmmmm
 
2)  What is your favorite thing to do at the gym? Least favorite? 
Favorite – Spin. As you know, I have become quite addicted. Speaking of spin, remember when I was debating whether or not to get spin shoes? And I got them? Well, last night before class I realized I left my spin shoes at the boy’s — and rather than go to class with my sneakers, I opted to not go to spin at all! Just because I didn’t have my spin shoes! Silly? Maybe. But I really didn’t want to go knowing what my experience COULD be. I did go to the gym, just not to spin. What are your thoughts on this? 
 
Least Favorite - Rowing Machine. When I joined my gym they gave me 2 free personal training sessions. I was really excited about this. My excitement faded quickly when the trainer made me do the evil rowing machine SO much, both times. I told him I didn’t like it and would rather learn other exercises, but he insisted that this machine is the only way I would ever achieve my goals. I really, really despised it, Needless to say, I didn’t hire a trainer and I have not set butt on a rowing machine again. And I never will.
 
3)  If you could meet anyone in the world, who would it be? 
David John Matthews
 Dave Matthews
4) What would you do for your dream date with a guy? 
Any date where sweatpants are involved is a dream date in my book.
 
5) What is your biggest fear? 
Umbrellas turning inside out. I don’t know why, it just scares me! One time, a friend and I were at the beach and it was a windy day. Our umbrella went inside out and I couldn’t control myself — I just began screaming, “My biggest fear!! MY BIGGEST FEAR!!!!”
Idiot
 
6) What is your favorite way to eat an Oreo? 
I scrape off the cream with my bottom teeth. Then I eat the cookie.
My favorite way to eat a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup (I took the liberty of adding this one) - I eat all the chocolate first and then I eat the peanut butter glob. There is no wrong way to eat a Reese’s.

 

Mega Double Stuff Oreo
 
7) If you could be granted one wish, what would it be? 
Right now, although it is selfish, I wish that my GI problems would be over so I can be healthy, eat what I want, feel comfortable in my own skin and live a (relatively) normal life. Also, world peace.
Play along, blagosphere members!

Here are the rules:

1. Leave me a comment saying, “Interview me.” If a few people want interviews, I will randomly pick one.

2. I will respond by emailing you five questions. (I get to pick the questions).

3. You will update your blog with the answers to the questions.

4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview others in the same post.

5. When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions.

Hope to hear from you!

My first cold in over 2 years

Hard to believe, but true. I have Zicam to thank for this. Because I was busy in Seattle when the very first signs of my cold started to appear, and it just wasn’t on my mind, I didn’t use Zicam nearly as much as I normally would have… hence, my first cold in a very long time.

This means:

Once again canceling our SoulCycle reservations. I was really looking forward to these for the second time! I already canceled once before. I promise one day I will try it out!

No exercising. I feel like crap. There is no way I’m going to force my body to work when it is BEGGING me for rest. The weekend will be spent in bed.

Canceling fun weekend plans including my already postponed dinner with two of my good friends and seeing the boy’s adorable niece and nephew.

Possibly not making the Maple Glazed Pumpkin French Toast as I had planned. I’ll see how up to it I am.

I hate being sick! I’m just trying to get through the day so I can rest. I can’t wait to lie down in bed with my book (The Reader — really good so far) and spend the weekend there. 

In other news, the nutritionist my doctor works with doesn’t take my insurance, so I made an appointment with another one who is close to my apartment for next Wednesday. I will keep you updated on this.

I’ll leave you with some good things. A picture of my brother smushing that baby puppy and one of me sleeping while watching Man on Wire with Santana (who woke up when she heard the picture about to be taken).
