Breakfast
Hot 2 |
Every morning, the bell shrills loudly and all of a sudden the sweet dream is swept away. The unwillingness of getting up occupies the body and calls back to the warm comfortable quilt again. Never gonna be back to work till the last minute is asking the warning of being almost late.
Believe it or not, this scene happens to everyone. The most important thing is that we almost forget the breakfast that we should have. Usually, we just simply have something, if there is no time left, buns, candy or just anything used to stuff stomach would be okay.
In fact the breakfast is important and most of us just do not take it seriously. When I get up, I will cook for myself. Sometimes I make congee with various of ingredients, including millet, black rice, lotus seeds, jumble beads, black beans, sesame seeds, lilies, job’s tears, dried longan, and some others. Before stewing, they would be put together to into the water for immersing hours. After that, probably I get up in the very early morning, I could simmer all of them down while I am out for jogging or walking in about forty minutes. When I am back, it is done with great scent. It will be better if some sugar is added into it, but I seldom eat sweet food.
At some other time, I just make some noodles, by adding some kinds of vegetables, such as carrots, and broccoli, cabbages with fried eggs. With some spring onions which are sliced into pieces can not have gone any better. Any ingredient would be nice according to personal appetite. After having that, drinking a glass of milk, that is definitely comfortable.
When I am required to the office early, I have to give up my DIY breakfast and get some in the company’s canteen. Fortunately, such a case is exceptional. Usually, I do that and have my style dish as I want. It won’t cost much money, and it just serves well being. Sometimes, we spend the money while eat not so well in a restaurant or an eatery. The food safety always triggers my nerves. Therefore, I choose doing that at home.
Mom cooks good food, but sometimes I feel it is a must to do something for myself. The breakfast I also do for them when I am free on weekends. We often enjoy yummy food from parents, and seldom do that for them.
Food is the paramount necessity for people. While we just do not have the concept of its importance. And what is more, we just think it is only the thing we need enough and rarely own the opinion of life quality improvement. This is the just right first step of a meaningful life.

- Your daily routines are quite similar to mine. I also make my own breakfast every morning. The only difference is that mine is a bit westernized while yours is more localized. Previously, I neglected breakfast before and always felt tired and restless.
Some time ago, I felt very tired every day and fell asleep easily in the afternoon despite having enough sleep. Doctors advised me to pay attention to nutrition and exercise so I did according to that advice and after a month, I regained strength, health, good eyesight and memory. Since then I followed a rich breakfast regimen. I had to reduce the variety of food because it was time consuming to buy and prepare in the tight morning time. Nevertheless, I still have a full nutritious breakfast every day and can start my day full of energy and alertness.
My current daily breakfast consists of mixed beans i.e. green beans, corn, carrots, fruit, an egg, some lean meat, bread or congee with Soya bean drink or fruit juice. This is sufficient to energize me through to lunch time and the rest of the day. I have changed from the so called while pearly rice to mixed brown rice for dinner.
Morning is the start of the day, we must refuel ourselves to face the tough demands of work and daily living. As people says what goes around, comes around. Neglect your body needs and your body would bite back. Take care, my friends.

- You have kept a good life style. Sometimes, it costs much time to buy those stuff to prepare for the dinner. So I may choose to do something simple for my breakfast. Anyway, whatever the dish I make would be better and nicer than I have in the canteen. That means it is healthier for me.

After a whole night's rest, the body has consumed much water and nutrition. It needs supply to fuel and refresh again. I learnt in the morning the body probably needs around 40% of a day's energy. Obviously, it is quite important for the quality of breakfast. While most of us just do not take that seriously.
I also had the experience before that I did not eat the breakfast, and felt faint in the office or got uncomfortable feeling from stomach. Since the gastric acid burns the stomach which is really awful. Then in the noon, I ate a lot than I got at ordinary times. This is easily to get fat and the disorder of metabolism causes some potential diseases. At some other time, I just got some simple food such as several pieces of bread or steamed buns, only for the purpose of making full.
Now I am keeping the regular diet and this will go on as I plan everyday. Wish you are well, friend.
