Why is Breakfast Important? Let's Make it Delicious

Image

"Breakfast is the most important meal of the day!" You've probably heard this saying countless times, and for good reason. Skipping breakfast can leave you feeling 'slow-moving', impact your focus and energy levels, and even sabotage your weight loss goals. But don't worry, creating a delicious and healthy breakfast routine doesn't have to be a chore. I myself enjoy making breakfast preparation for my family. 

Why breakfast matters:
  • Boosts Energy
After a night of sleeping, your body needs fuel to kickstart its day. Breakfast provides the necessary nutrients to power your brain and muscles.
  • Improved Concentration
Studies have shown that eating breakfast can significantly enhance cognitive function, improving focus, memory, and alertness.
  • Weight Management
People who eat breakfast tend to make healthier food choices throughout the day and are less likely to overeat later on.
  • Mood Booster
Breakfast can help stabilize blood sugar levels, preventing those dreaded mid-morning crashes that can leave you feeling irritable and fatigued.

So. let's make healthy & delicious breakfasts! Prep ahead, meal prep can be a lifesaver! Chop fruits and vegetables, prepare oatmeal in bowl or hard-boil eggs in advance. Don't forget protein sources like eggs, yogurt, nuts, seeds, or beans to keep you feeling full and satisfied. I prefer whole-grain bread to plain regular bread, oats for sustained energy and added fiber. Load up on fruits and veggies: Add fresh or frozen berries to your yogurt or enjoy a side of scrambled eggs. In addition, stay hydrated, start your day with a glass of water to rehydrate after sleep.

Breakfast variations and ideas:
✔Smoothie bowls with fruit, yogurt, and granola
✔Overnight oats with chia seeds and nuts
✔Toast, egg
✔Scrambled eggs with veggies and whole-grain toast
✔Breakfast burritos with eggs, beans, and salsa
✔Oatmeal with fruit, nuts, and a drizzle of honey
✔Pancakes or waffles made with whole-wheat flour
✔French toast with berries and syrup

Making breakfast a priority doesn't have to be a difficult task. With a little planning and creativity, you can enjoy delicious and nutritious meals that will set you up for a successful and energized day. So, wrap the power of breakfast!

The Music-Obsessed Kid in Me Finally Got Her Wish

My earliest memories are steeped in music, all thanks to my mom. Actually she's a classical guitar player, and I can still picture her when her fingers dancing on the fret-board. She was the first person to teach me how to play guitar when I was just in elementary school. There's something beautiful and pure about the way she plays.  As I grew older, my fascination with music just expended. I was itching to learn more! I remember practically begging my parents for classical music lessons especially the violin and the piano. Unfortunately, life had other plans, We had just moved into a new house, and our savings were dedicated to school and settling in, so lessons just weren’t in the budget at that time. Honestly, though, it was fine.  When I was in junior high, my dad surprised me with a keyboard. I dove right into learning it, and I've loved having it.

The Classic Tale of Sleeping Beauty: Briar-Rose

We must be familiar with fairy tales. I used to listen to fairy tale stories when I was a child, my favorite was the bed time stories. Fairy tales generally take place in a far-off place and time, typically begin with “Once upon a time.” In the land of fairy tales, magical happens. A fairy tale often tells the story of an individual, takes into the entire life, and generally ends happily. The traditional and common closing line of a fairy tale is, “...and they lived happily ever after.” In the early 19th century, the German brothers Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, scholars who studied folklore, linguistics, and literary history, began collecting and recording old German folktales. The tales were often full of supernatural elements such as witches, talking animals, and magical kingdoms. One of the tales that the Grimm brothers collected was a version of the story of Sleeping Beauty known as Briar-Rose.
