@GustyOne4U

At least you have a plan when your food is messy. The computer desk could double as a table also. The computer/laptop would love you to move it thou while eating.

I do that sometimes also just to change things up. My son likes eating that a lot.

@DanaMH

Dana, I am not changing my breakfast a lot. It's usually

1/2 glass of water with 1 TBS organic apple cider vinegar before breakfast,

1 cup of coffee, 1 cup of homemade cerial with homemade almond milk and some of the ground of almonds when doing the milk, 1 TBS flax / chia seed mix along with 1/2 banana, a bit of pineapple, water melon, a few grapes. - no added sugar

Fruit can change, but the rest not.

That sounds like a good breaskfast and changing up the fruit helps change up the breakfast also.

@DanaMH

Dana, I try to change fruit as much as possible and also try to use local or own garden fruit because storing destroys some vitamines.

@amiablePeace77

Buying the fruit from the locals also helps the money stay in the community and supports those growers. That is awesome you grow some fruit also. We bought some new apple trees and every time the leaves start growing or apples the deer think they get to eat them.

@DanaMH

Dana, it must be disappointing seeing the trees grow, being exited to get the first one to taste and then the deers come and you get nothing. Can you cover the trees with netting? We cover our vege e.g. with netting, otherwise the monkies would take most of them. I put my apples (on the tree) in netting bags too.

@amiablePeace77

The trees are so small I can ask my husband if he can do that for next year. What he learned on the web is if you put Irish Spring soap from a string the deer should stay away. We will see next year if it works or not since we only have branches now.
