Today is an absolutely beautiful morning! When I awoke this morning the morning sky was just beginning to lighten up, the breeze was slight but refreshing and it immediately put me in good spirits.
I try to start my day off with fruit. I guess it's something like what coffee is to others. This morning I decided on a breakfast smoothie. It's a very simple combination of a whole banana and about a cup of frozen berries. I add about a half cup of milk to help make it smooth in the blender. Blend that all up and I strain the berry seeds. They annoyingly get stuck in your teeth!
Here it is!!! A delicious berry banana smoothie. A perfect breakfast drink to get your day going. While I was looking out the kitchen window I remembered a special picture that I wanted to take to show you.....
This beautiful little guy catches my eye each and every morning. Isn't it beautiful! I will be very sad when it's little leaves fall off and it's not much more than a stick in the ground. I love trees very much and we tend to plant new babies every year in our yard. I am always rewarded by a beautiful display of color in the fall and the joy of watching them grow taller each and every year. I could never understand when I was younger why older people would say things like see that tree over there, it was just this high when we planted it. Now I understand as I have several little trees that I am so proud of that have grown and I exclaim to people myself when I show them my towering saplings... "see that tree over there"..... Have a wonderful day whatever your tasks may be today. It's a beautiful start of a fantastic weekend!
