Simplify and improve

I couldn't wait to get breakfast in me today. It's funny because I used to not really care for it at all. I didn't hate breakfast foods, but nothing seemed appetizing, so I would just flop whatever breakfast-type food down on a plate and just grin and bear it. Not so much anymore!

Today's breakfast in a bowl is plain soy yogurt, banana, cinnamon, granola, and coconut. I'd seen a lot of coconut be used for yogurt bowls before, but was iffy on trying it out until today. I looove coconut, but wasn't sure how it would go with the rest, but was great! I love the idea of getting a little healthy fats in with the granola and coconut.

Went out to a doctor appointment, and unfortunately driving kicked my butt (Singing along to songs may or may not have contributed too, hehe) and I was in a lot of pain. But so hungry! Time for me to plop some store-bought butternut squash soup in a cup and make an easy sandwich. This sandwich actually is great as a late-night snack for me - it's cilantro and jalapeno hummus and lettuce on wheat bread. It's not a full meal by itself but it fills me up with the soup. I'd stay full for a while if I were able to cut up some apples, but with this pain now I'd better not. Times like this I wonder if something like an apple divider would be a good thing to have... hmm!

Speaking of kitchen tools, I have been looking around for gadgets to have that would make cooking with TOS more easy. So far the only solid ideas are electric pepper and salt grinders, and a water heater for my teas to skip using the kettle. A lot of devices out there I'm finding though cut prep time down, but are a pain to clean which is not good! Hard to clean equals an automatic "not worth buying" from me even though I'm usually not the one to do dishes in the house. I shall keep my eyes open for more products!
