Some thoughts and discussions from me.
Some thoughts and discussions from me.
Good morning!
I don’t have too much time to write up a post this morning – I’m on my way out the door to teach a core class. But I do have a couple things I’d like to share with you (quite literally!)
First – some birthday recapping. The day was great, thanks to Shane being such a sweetheart, calls, tweets, and texts (and comments from you all!!) from friends and loved ones. Instead of a long recap – let’s take a short cut with a collage recap, shall we?
1. Bible reading and Niko cuddling right when waking up
2. Cards and gifts when waking up
3. Card from Shane (the beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, etc. is a running joke between us and Wheel of Fortune [Pat: who’s in the audience with you today? Contestant: My BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL WIFE!! – I told him if he ever gets on Wheel, then he needs to use 5 “beautiful”’s haha)
4. GIFT!!!!!
5. Breakfast of two eggs, toast, and kraut
6. Coffee in the mug my dad gave me
7. Mid-morning yoga and Coconut H2O
8. Post-yoga bliss face
9. Mid-afternoon Niko walk on a gorgeous day
10. Beers out at Shine after teaching/training all day
11. Dinner out – Ruby trout over pesto roasted potatoes, with a side of coconut sauteed kale
12. Dessert out – Ice cream sandwich made a coconut/nut/date crust and coconut milk ice cream
A great day indeed
Thank you guys, too, for the lovely birthday comments on yesterday’s post. To show my appreciation, how about a giveaway?
Ya’ll know I love my popchips. I’ve already waxed poetically about them in this post. But my all time favorite flavor (well, maybe tied with sweet potato) is – Katy’s Kettle Corn. A little sweet, a little salty, a LOT yummy. They’re Shane’s favorite, too.

Happy Birthday, a day late! I’m glad you had a nice day! I got an iPad Mini last month and I LOVE it! I am obsessed with all Popchips/Popcorners! I love the sea salt ones, but I’ve never tried the kettle corn variety.

Sweet potato chip with cinnamon and sugar topping, mmmm
Hppy Birthday! I’ve got a cold so it’s hard for me to think about taste, but I’d both the chocolate-drizzled kettle corn and the cinnamon sugar topped sweet potato chips!

My ideal popchip would definitely be salty and sweet. Chocolate and pretzel…is that even possible? Yum!
I am going to say blue cheese
my chip would probably be milk chocolate with drizzles of peanut butter
Sweet potato with peanut butter and cinnamon would be heavenly!
such a tough question! I would have to say extra cheesy (like three kinds of cheese) chips.

I love any kettle corn, but I really want to try the chocolate one.

Salt and vinegar would be perfect!
salt and vinegar is one of my favorite chips!
Happy belated birthday!! I’d like a cheesy habanero one! mmm. Ive never tried Katy’s Kettle Chips but saw them the other day and have been thinking about them ever since!
Something sweet and salty… maybe a regular chip with peanut butter stripes?
I would love a pesto chip! I love dipping chips in cottage cheese, and this would be a bomb combo!

Belated Birthday Paige. I would love my chips salty with hint of spice. I have never tried Katy’s Kettle Chips

I have also tweeted the giveaway.
I would definitely have to go with some kind of dessert chip and it would definitely have to include peanut butter!
Natalie @ Free Range Human recently posted…WIAW: What I Ate On The Slopes
Sounds like you had a fab Birthday! I would go for salty & sweet also, Kettle Corn with some dark chocolate would be a great chip!
Katie @ KatieEnPursuit recently posted…What Are You Waiting for Wednesday
Salt and vinegar!
I think I like where your head is at with the sweet and salty. But maybe I’d go for a chipotle guac variation? Hmmm…
Amy @ Second City Randomness recently posted…New Year, New Chapter

My ideal chip would be something cheesy and delicious!
Hmmm maybe a cinnamon sugar chip?
My ideal Popchip would be cheddar!
I always dust cocoa powder over my kettlecorn, so I have to say your chip idea might be my ideal chips also!

I’d like a chip that’s cheese flavored with a dash of heat. Something that gives a little kick but not enough to make you choke.
My pick would be something sweet and salty. Maybe a chocolate covered pretzel flavor?

I love cheddar and sour cream…it’s a weakness of mine!
Chocolate Crisp Chip would be tasty! Everyone loves chocolate chips!
Dulce de leche Chip! Gotta love the sweet caramel!
Anyone else love that Thai Sweet Chili Sauce from Trader Joes? Make that in to a popchip, and I may never eat anything else…
A chip with some bacon!
I love Barbeque Popchips but my dream Popchip would be lime flavored tortilla chips!
I would want cheddar and sour cream flavored!
I’d love a pretzel flavored chip drizzled in chocolate and magically calorie-free!
I would love sour cream and onion or cinnamon sugar. Mmmm totally craving it now 🙂

I would say something that involved chocolate and peanut butter.
Popchips are so yummy!! I think a salsa and cheese flavored chip would be delicious!
I LOVE the jalapeno chips — so spicy and good!
Sea Salt and Vinegar.
