Menu Plan Monday: Tired of Being Tired
I am officially tired of winter. More than that, my SAD is kicking in hard, despite 8-12,000 IU of Vitamin D nightly. I started writing this post on Sunday, had the draft, found the links to the pretty recipes (need to remember to do that again for next week), and here it is Wednesday, and I am dragging ass. You can check out my Fitbit stats if you don't believe me.

That sloth from Zootopia is moving faster than me this week. Not only am I moving slowly, but I'm also thinking slowly. I have enough energy to do the bare minimum, and even that's a stretch.
But anyways, here are the beautiful things I shall be cooking and inhaling before passing out each night this week.
There was some quinoa left over, excellent breakfast mixed with blueberries and coconut cream. I was too tired to post on Instagram, so you dear blog reader, get the SOOC, unedited food picture.
Apparently, I tweeted while cooking, inhaled dinner, cleaned up, and passed out. Sorry, no #Platedpic of this meal.
