Looks like it's time to blow the dust off my exercise bike, and get back on it. I know I did not spend the money on that darn thing to use it as a clothes hanger!

Breakfast Stuffs!
Obviously we aren't over here lighting up a pound of bacon... SO... What are you all doing in order to jump start your mornings with plants? Do you opt for variety? The same easy "go-to" choices? What do you typically eat? How do you switch things up to keep it new, interesting, and delicious?
Salad Dressings & Sauces!
