Kahlúa for Breakfast

Even though I’m always a little sad when a holiday weekend is over, I’m pretty sure my body is happy.

It gladly welcomes the return of healthy eats!

Now that I look at that image, my breakfast doesn’t really look that healthy. It kind of looks like a greasy diner egg sandwich, but no siree!

Breakfast this morning was a simple two-egg sandwich on a toasted whole wheat English muffin with muenster cheese and a bit of strawberry jelly.

On the side I sipped on a mug of Kahlúa.

Kahlúa coffee, that is.

Let me just say that sipping on a Kahlúa-flavored cup of coffee this morning made me want to party. Such a tease!

I snagged the sample pack of Kahlúa coffee from my parents’ pantry and actually liked it more than I thought I would! I figured a liqueur flavor might be a little weird in the morning, but I like Kahlúa and I like coffee, so it created a little party in my mouth.

Workout

Breakfast was enjoyed after an early workout. That 5 a.m. alarm was brutal this morning.

I completed a strength workout after tackling the same 30 minute incline treadmill workout that I did last Monday. It felt slightly less difficult this week, but still very challenging.

The rest of my day so far can be chalked up to sitting at the computer and typing away on some local freelance assignments. Fortunately the long weekend seems to have rejuvenated my writing mojo!
