breakfast of champions



somehow the refrain of that book title keeps looping in my head "no one cares what you had for breakfast" and i've started this post now four six separate times.

so i think in simplest terms the universe is telling me that i have nothing to say today. *shrugs* which feels very odd to me as i think of myself as having a lot to say most of the time.

i will listen to the universe today and will back up and listen some more. i will also leave you with the best quote that i've read today: 'courage is to never let your actions be influenced by your fears. arthur koestler

  1. my cousin had a blog for about two years that she called "the most important meal".... and it was simply a record of what she had had for breakfast that day.

    i wouldn't say that it inspired daily check ins... but i did like to check in every so often, as it was just so her! and, she had a surprisingly large following for a time.

    all that to say that if you have nothing else to say, breakfast is not a bad option ;)

  4. Being the mother that I am, I'm going to say: Please don't tell me that's what you have for breakfast. You know it is the most important meal of the day. And I'm sure that also sounds like a commercial.

  6. Sometimes we have those days when we just have to "be." To absorb everything around us. Enjoy!

  8. Even when you feel like you
    have nothing to share, you
    still do. That's why I like
    you. ;o)

  9. first thing i saw when i woke up this morning and walked into my kitchen were four rather blackening bananas. so made myself some banan bread (but turned out more like cake) and am eating some of that right now before i rush off to work. cake for breakfast!

  10. I take a ziploc of shredded wheats to work and munch them with my water. I get the frosted kind, with blueberry.

    They're really good.

  11. words are not coming to me AT ALL. I think I got comfortable with the 'photo only' blogs in December. I might have to resort back to that.

    That IS a good quote.

  18. i went to mcdonalds yesterday around 930 and ordered a sweet tea (for me) and a bag of cookies (for the little boy i was watching) and the lady i paid said, what a great breakfast! i told her i was cutting back...the tea was for me and the cookies were for the boy. but it sounds like we had similar thoughts...not much to say and some carbs to load us up!
