I got up at a decent time (8:30am) and went to the fridge . I wanted to have some toast with jam(or jelly, I'm not sure the difference) for breakfast. I noticed that we were extremely low (only enough for the 1 piece of toast), so I needed to make more. This time, we're having blackberry and cherry jam. I tasted it and it tastes so good. Here's what I made today.
I've been wanting to make some more home made granola bars. I kind of made my own recipe. I looked up a lot online and kind of combined them. I don't have exact measurements. This is what's inside them:
rolled oats, almonds, flax seed, pine nuts, barley, dried cherries, mini chocolate chips, maple syrup, honey, PB, canola oil and just little pinch of salt. I baked them at 350 for 25 minutes (just a few minutes too long). They are very crispy. They taste ok, I'm not impressed. I'll keep working on the recipe.
I can't wait to go for a run tomorrow. I'm not expecting to be able to run far, just excited to stretch my legs out a bit. Another busy day ahead of me, but I'm ready for it! Don't forget about my giveaway. You have until Wednesday.
I took a week off last week to rest my ITB and on sunday I ran 1 mile on the treadmill and at that point 1 miler was 1 mile! I was ecstatic! Ive never made jam before. I should look into it. Is it hard?
