I told myself I was not going to complain about the weather, but its cooolllllddddd outside!
Thankfully its going to be another warm and beautiful weekend, but the fact that it’s 30 degrees out right now is a little unsettling.
I am of course a wimp and did not even have the heart to make the trip to my apartment gym for the treadmill, so instead I did a little cross training with Billy Blank’s Lower Body Boot Camp DVD I received through Netflix the other day.
The work out was ok. Not one of my favorites of his, but it did do the job of warming me up this morning.
Breakfast this morning was a little out of the norm for me.
Yes, that’s a biscuit covered in my Dad’s famous sausage gravy. 
When my parent’s came up on Sunday my Dad surprised me with some of his left overs he had made for breakfast this morning. I am not one to deny any of my Dad’s homemade food (which is why I’m thankful I don’t live at home any more, I would weigh 200 lbs!), so I accepted the food graciously and saved it for a special morning.
I thought the freezing temps outside warranted a hot breakfast so I headed up the left overs and had a bowl on the side to round the meal out.
Strawberries, Blackberries & Grapes.. Oh My!
When I arrived at the office this morning I could not resist a cup of Hot Chocolate a co –worker was offering.
Nothing beats the cold weather chill then a delish Hot Chocolate.
Tonight’s low is 27! Time to break out the flannel pjs!

WOWZA – that sausage/biscuit/gravy combo looks heavenly!
I think you shoudl task your dad with making a healthy version of that – I’d love to see what he comes up with!
Mmm, what a great way to warm up! Hahaha, and you’re totally legit complaining about the weather. 30 is freakin’ cold for Florida!!
I love Biscuits and Gravy but hardly ever have it anymore. I love that you can splurge once and a while and still stay so healthy and active! Way to go!

once it gets below freezing, i say everyone has a right to complain!
Its cold in Charleston too! Booooooo! I am hoping it some how warms up this afternoon so I can go for a quick run outside, but its not looking good. The rest of our week looks like it will be much warmer too! Thank goodness!
Stay warm! I agree that hot chocolate is a must in cold weather!
i am in loveeee with biscuits and sausage gravy! my dad is from north carolina, and he used to make it so good from scratch! whenever we visit my grandparents we eat them, and its so good! love that mug of hot chocolate
It was -3 with the windchill this morning! Brr
Sometimes, homemade biscuits and gravy are the best thing to warm you up!
hehe, I know what you mean about living at the ‘rents! It definitely would have it’s perks but I agree, I’d weigh 200 lbs living there!
That’s about the same temp that it is here too. I am ready for the warm weather of spring to get here already! The biscuits and gravy look yummy…and so does the hot chocolate!

The warm weather we’ve been having lately is KILLING the ski resorts. I hope we get some major storms before your ski trip out here In February :/
Your dad’s food definitely looks awesome!
Melissa G- I cannot believe the weather out here right either. What part of CO are you from?
Meghann- Where will you be skiing in Feb?
Melissa – I’m crossing my fingers it cools down before I get to Colorado too!
Kathleen – Yes, I’ll be hitting the slopes in Breckenridge the first week of February. Its mine and my twin bro’s birthday present from our parents.
Stay warm and keep up the delicious eats!
Your high temp for Saturday is going to be 72*?!?! Our high temp is forecasted as 12*, and I have an outdoor mini-golf tournament to play in! I want your weather!!
Brrrr it was 24 with the windchill when I left this AM! And now it’s probably close to freezing and it’s dark and I’m gonna run. haha one of those runs I’m dreading, but hoping the cool air makes me go super fast!
I love hot chocolate! I’ve been drinking it non stop through this cold spell!
