Simplicity

simple breakfast

Life truly is all about the simple things. This weekend marked a brilliant snow storm, which closed down the local area. Therefore, there was little to do but enjoy Mother Nature’s attempt to slow us down and appreciate life! I started off my Saturday with one of my favorite breakfast meals, consisting of really simple ingredients:

  • Bread (or in this case, English Muffin)
  • Avocado
  • Medium-boiled egg
  • Olive oil
  • Lemon juice
  • Chia seeds

This meal is filling and utterly delicious, plus it includes protein, fiber, fatty-acids with all these ingredients! The eggs are also from one of our local favorites, Enticement Farms, and I love how fresh local eggs taste!

Do you remember, when you are young, how you dream about a time where you are older and surrounded by great friends? Well, that is our reality! We have amazing neighbors who are kind, thoughtful, generous, and hilarious. How amazing to have neighbors who are also friends. We celebrated the snow day, and the fact that we did not have to go anywhere, by spending the afternoon together. First, we went to lunch at our local bar, which we can walk to, followed by sledding and snowboarding down a neighbor’s long driveway. This is why I say that age is just a number! You are as young as you live!

My final thought of this blog is, no matter where you live, or how young you are, take a minute to sit back and enjoy the simple pleasures that nature provides daily. I know I will!
