The August Break 2013 - Day 2 - Circles


I don't need to walk around in circles,
Walk around in circles, walk around in circles,
Walk around in....
~ "Circles" by Soul Coughing


Reading the prompt for today, circles, I thought where am I going to find circles as I go about my day?  And circles were practically staring me in the face first thing in the morning, right on my pajamas.  Or "jams," as my young niece and nephew call them.  
I actually encountered a lot of circles in my day.  It seems to be true, when you become aware of something, you see it everywhere. 

















See you back here tomorrow!
Hugs,
Tara

The August Break 2013 - Day 1 - Breakfast

 
 "Breakfast!"  Good morning, everybody.
The sun is up and there's lots of toast and jelly.
~ "Postcard from a Dream" by Poi Dog Pondering
 
Ah, in my world, at least on weekdays, there is smoothie, not toast and jelly.  I take it on the go, drinking it on the car.  Weekends are more leisurely, yogurt with granola and berries eaten on the back deck.  In the winter, oatmeal.  If I have time, I love to make crepes
 
There are plenty of recipes out there for smoothies, if you'd like one.  I don't really follow a recipe, my general guideline is:
 
~ liquid - usually water, but sometimes almond milk, coconut milk, or hemp milk
~ greens (varies)
~ another vegetable (often cucumber)
~ banana
~ another fruit
~ something with fat / protein to fill me up and stay with me through the morning - such as nuts, nut butter, avocado
~ other good stuff, like hemp seeds, chia seeds, ginger

 
What is your breakfast?
 
Be well!
 
Hugs,
Tara
