Answer me! The reminding vibrations seem to say. I reach groggily next to me for my green tea. Twenty ounces (I know because it’s brilliantly labeled on my Starbucks mug) of caffeine boost.

It smells of childhood. Memories.
I know it’s Saturday morning.

oatmeal + blueberries + pumpkin & flaxseed granola
A pinch of cinnamon to taste.
Warm. Happy. A hearty breakfast with a crunch.

Stop. Really? Thank you! I love writing these kind of things, I don’t get to too often.
And that sounds divine. Trying that as soon as I head home from work (breakfast is good any time of the day, no?).
xo!
