Breakfast in Bed

in All Posts

A better birthday cake:

CIMG4368

First Green Monster of the 25th Year!

 

The Husband has a traditional of making me breakfast in bed every year for my birthday. :)  Usually, I wake up first and am in charge of breakfast, so it’s a really sweet change, and I appreciate the effort it takes:

CIMG4358

Two eggs with two slices of WW toast, plus some fruit from my edible bouquet:

CIMG4359

And coffee on my nightstand:

CIMG4363

We also always exchange presents in bed.  This year, I received:

CIMG4364

A FOAM ROLLER and new goggles!  Honestly, it’s presents like this that make me realize the Husband actually listens to me when I babble on.  🙂

 

And now I’m drinking a Green  Monster because although the Most Magical Place on Earth is awesome, it’s super expensive to eat at!  Hopefully this combo will keep me full for a while:

 

  • 2 cups kale
  • 1 cup almond breeze, unsweetened
  • 1 banana
  • 1 tablespoon flax seed

 

Off to see Mickey and Minnie!  🙂 Have a wonderful day.

    That is the first time I’ve ever seen a candle in a green monster! 🙂 I have a feeling it won’t be the last…
