satisfaction

The makings of a satisfying day.
I watched a pretty decent movie.
I did something to take charge of my health and physical well-being.
I had what I like to refer to as The Bubble Bath Extravaganza. Aromatherapy oils. Moisture mask. Exfoliating scrub. Neroli Jasmine bath foam. Green tea scrub.
I made dinner and kick ass lime juice with organically grown limes.

Don't you just love the feeling? Unfortunately, it kinda makes you want more.

breakfast

Ask yourself this - how many times have you taken that meal for granted? We all know it is "the most important meal of the day", but come on. Unless it's the weekend, breakfast for me usually takes less than five minutes and is eaten standing up/getting stuff together for work/on the way to work. On the rare occasion, I take some time to whip up a healthy breakfast smoothie.

Reading this, kinda sorta changed my mind. I so want to take breakfast more seriously. But does that mean getting up earlier? And eating - OATS?! It's not like I have unhealthy things for breakfast anyway. My smoothies are made with frozen strawberries (no added sugar), sugar-free apple juice, a handful of oats (yuck) to slow down the absorption of sugar (or so says the Jamie Oliver book), bananas and natural yogurt. I have toast (okay, fine - it's white bread. bad!) most of the time, sometimes French toast. I'm not reaaaaally fond of breakfast egg-things. I quite like croissants, to put it mildly. Sometimes, I have cereal (coated with honey - bad?)

Hmm. Might have to give this some more thought.
