Okay so breakfast this morning was me waking up and staring at the evil which was a marble cake we made for Jace's birthday. Rather than picking up that fork and deciding to blow away any hopes of eating well for the day its important to take a step back and think; "Do I really want to eat the cake and feel like crud for the rest of the day?". Some days that is the case, but most days it IS possible to step back and see what else there is around the house that might be a little better for you.
For me that little bit better is substituting pop or coffee for blueberry tea and honey in my favorite mug (Thank you Aunt Aggie!). The mug reads; "The secret to having it all... is knowing you already do." with a pretty minimalist flower design on the side. The other half of my little bit better is some wheat flake and oat bunch cereal with bananas, blueberries, and vanilla soy milk. This to be the better option instead of a cereal with more sugar, or a breakfast sandwich composed of mainly carbohydrates and preservatives. Personally most of the time I would rather have the meal composed of fruits, and grain and things that later on in the day will give me more energy rather than something greasy that will leave me feeling sluggish and tired.
So, moral of the story is you don't have to eat something healthy 100% of the time, but take the time to choose things that are going to help you more than hinder you. That way when you get that day started you can really get it started!

Oh, I just have to start my day with my cup of coffee. It's my one guilty indulgence, I suppose! :) Your cereal looks yummy, with all those blueberries!
