Snickerdoodles for Breakfast


My appetite is a raging beast.

Lately, it seems I can’t shovel food in fast enough. I’ve even started bringing raw almonds to munch during class in case I get hungry before lunchtime. Here’s how I fed the raging beast this morning:

cinnamon oatmeal

healthy snickerdoodle

Snickerdoodle Oatmeal

I also made a cashew icing—out of cashew butter and almond milk—to drizzle over the oatmeal. It was better than an actual snickerdoodle cookie. Truly, it was! One beast tamed… for now.

But here’s a beast who can’t be tamed:

The formidable Henrymonster! Poor Henry wasn’t so sure he liked the snow.

Questions of the Day:

Are you hungrier on days you don’t exercise?
And do you find that your appetite changes with the seasons?

It’s so weird; even though I probably get less exercise in the winter, I’m always hungrier. Or maybe it’s not so weird. After all, it takes a lot of energy to stay warm! When the weather gets really hot, it sometimes feels like a chore to eat. And I’m definitely hungrier on my rest days… maybe because exercise is an appetite suppressant?

Aside: Such an honor vegan.com featured my Raw Chocolate Fudge Cake!
Thank you so, so much!

    I’m just hungrier at different times of the month…if you catch my drift. I could eat everything in the freakin’ house at this point and still not be satisfied.

    I usually am more hungry on days when I don’t exercise – or on days when I lift weights. or when I run. Actually, I’m just hungry all the time.

    I eat about as much on days I work out as on days I don’t. my appetite varies a lot but I also go through periods where I’m ravenous :p

  6. Rachel (tea and chocolate) says:

    I’m the same way–more hungry when it’s cold, less hungry when it’s warm. This past week its gotten a lot warmer and my appetite has disappeared. So maybe there’s something to that.

    Aw I love Henry’s coat! So cute.

  7. Sarah says:

    Yummmmmmmmy! I forgot about snickerdoodle oatmeal. I made this all the time when you first talked about it. In fact, I think that’s how I originally found you, from HEAB’s blog when she made it!
