Flower for Monday Oatmeal
26 Jan
I think every one of you deserves a flower on this Monday morning.
Mondays can be tough. The start of a new week. Getting back to work after a fun and relaxing weekend. Just that all-over “want-to-stay-in-bed” feeling. Why not receive flowers on Mondays? I’d be OK with that 
And this flower is special – it’s lying on a bed of strawberry-banana oatmeal. You couldn’t make your Monday any better!
And speaking of Monday morning, I better get on with it and get myself to work. It’s time for my SUPER LONG Monday. Catch you either @ lunch or @ breakfast tomorrow morning.
Question: How do you feel about Mondays?
I don’t hate ‘em. But I certainly don’t love ‘em. I have a regular meeting on Monday mornings, and that gets me right in the zone from the get-go, so that’s good at least

So gorgeous!!
Mondays… too far away from the weekend!!
Hang in there with your classes!!
Love your flower!
I started this Monday with a nice long pool workout before heading to the office. It was my first time, so it’s messing with my perception of time a little bit (it feels a lot later than it really is), but hopefully it’ll turn into a really good habit that jumpstarts my week!
Your oatmeal posts are too cute. I actually brought one to a Comm class to show an example of fun things I like to read!
Love the flower.
I like Mondays (now). Mondays are my “off” days, I don’t run or work. I just focus on stuff that needs taken care of at home, it’s nice.
Gorgeous flower
I bet that made your morning nice and bright. I think the anticipation of Mondays (i.e. Sunday night) is much worse than the actual day!
I feel the same about mondays as I do about most of the weekdays. Once I get out of bed, the day itself is not so bad, but I’m not a morning person.
Lifeisyumbo – wow, I am honored! Thanks for sharing my blog post with your class – very cool
I saw you just started a blog and will be checking it out soon!
Erica – I totally agree. The anticipation is always worse.
ughghh mondays are hellish and evil. i guess they make the weekends even sweeter though, right?
loving the flower, you’re too cute!!

I don’t hate Mondays either, I mean I’d much prefer it to be Friday, but it’s nice to actually feel productive after the weekend is over.
Good luck with class tonight!!
Pretty photos!!!!!!
Aww, pretty
Mondays are okay. This semester I only have one class on Mondays, and it’s not until 11. So that’s doable.
Say hello to Scone for me!!
I only hate them because I hate my alarm clock
I like getting back into a kind of normal routine for the week, but that alarm – it kills me!
Breakfast looks beautiful!
your oatmeal looks so cute! I’m done with school and don’t work, so Mondays arent really that bad for me =)
Awww. Your flower is so pretty! I’m not a big fan of Mondays just because it’s the first day of the week. Oh well. I guess if we did away with Mondays I would just start to dislike Tuesdays.
Pretty flower! Did you mash/whip the rest of the strawberry into your oats? It doesn’t look like the whole thing. Good luck with your Monday!
What a lovely way to start such a long Monday! Good luck!
I am fine with Mondays. It’s the Tuesdays that I hate. That’s when you realize that you’re back in the thick of it and you still have a long way to go until Friday.
Thumbs down to Mondays…and pretty much any day that isn’t the weekend, because I never feel like I have enough time on the weekends to get everything done AND relax a bit.
Lovely flower oatmeal
Rachel – I did stir about 4 strawberries in with my oats
flower oatmeal! i love it
i dread mondays! it’s my busiest day of the week, which can be a good thing– but after a super chill weekend, i do not look forward to monday!
hope yours is wonderful
Honestly, I love every day. Is that annoying?
I LOVE the flower oats!!! yum yum!
Mondays, well, dont love them but I look at it this way: a fresh start to a new week!
I’ll be honest, Mondays are rough for me. I have a hard time getting out of bed. Tuesdays are always better!
Great flower oats!
That oatmeal looks delicious! Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy following your blog!
That strawberry flower is just beautiful.
I know that I like my new job/externship because I’ve been looking forward to Mondays ever since I started. Before that, I was not a Monday fan.
This is my favorite bowl of oats you’ve made. Pretty.
