Oh, right, it’s January.

This morning I woke up early and actually worked out without anybody making me. That made me feel pretty good at life, so after showering I decided that I would make myself a green smoothie for breakfast, so that I could feel EVEN BETTER at life.

I still have a pretty decent crop of cold weather veggies going in the garden (kale, turnips, radishes, lettuces and cabbages), so I walked outside to get some kale for my smoothie only to discover that the kale was frozen solid. Each leaf snapped off the plant with a sharp “pop!”

Which made me question that whole green smoothie business in the first place. I mean, what am I? A zen master? I’m going to put something frozen into my body while everything outside is freezing too? 

So I had a piping hot vegan breakfast burrito with extra salsa and some coffee instead. It’s all about priorities, and warmth is mine.
