Do you ever have those mornings where, no matter how many cups of coffee you knock back, there’s just no energy flowing at all?
Mr. Spicy said it best this morning after I stumbled back in to the bedroom, 2 cups of coffee down, 2 breakfasts made, 2 lunches packed, and multiple school papers signed, with a dazed look on my face.
Not firing all your cylinders this morning babe?
Bingo!
Did someone swap out the regular for decaf???
Maybe I can blame the rain…
Or, maybe I can blame these gluten-free Bacon Banana Pancakes with Salted Macadamia Nuts I inhaled yesterday morning at a pre-Gluten-Free Wellness Retreat planning meeting at the Park Hyatt Aviara Resort…
Or maybe, just maybe, some mornings simply need a little re-booting to fire up your day…
Oh, and it’s SO tasty, I think I might even get my kids to drink it.
If they were blindfolded 🙂
The apple adds the perfect touch of sweetness, the basil is pure morning aromatherapy, the kale is, well kale, and super nutritious, and the lime adds a fabulous hint of tart.
