Check out that sunshine behind my breakfast! I picked up a single serving carton of OJ right after we got back from Jamaica and totally forgot about it. This morning I had a glass – so delicious! OJ just screams “it’s morning!”
With it – yogurt with wheat waffles, banana, chia seeds and sunbutter
Yogurt underneath!
Have a sunny Monday!

It is surprisingly here in Dublin today. Wasn’t so much this morning but it’s brightened up wonderful and the temperatures risen with it…I’ll be wearing a couple of lighter layers for my run this evening!
there really is nothing like OJ in the morning!!! It DOES say good morning like nothing else!!!
And I really need to just take the leap and try the sunbutter already
Yum looks amazing as usual kath ! Nothing like OJ every once in awhile ,I like the purple bowl , have a fantastic start to your week !
orange juice is so comforting with breakfast… brings me back to early mornings as a kid. my favorite was the real, fresh squeezed stuff when we would visit my grandma in florida. nothing better
All I’ve been wanting for breakfast lately is yogurt with cereal.. and a nut butter of course! But I can’t remember the last time I had OJ!
OJ totally hits the spot sometimes! So refreshing!
Picked up the sunflower seed butter from TJ’s and just wanted to let you know that I love it (and all the antioxidants – so much better for you than Peanut Butter!). BTW – I have to play catch-up and go back and read some of your older posts since I just got back from Jamaica, but I was dying to know where you stayed… not sure if you mentioned it in another post, so I’ll check, but would love to know how you liked it. We stayed at Sandals Grande Riviera in Ochos Rios and while it was lovely, I wasn’t impressed with the food.
It’s all in this post!! couples Swept Away

Love that purple bowl!!Have a fantastic day Kath!
I really like orange juice, but the fact that it’s normally drunk so close to teeth-brushing time puts me off. I don’t think the orange flavor is enhanced by mint!
Kinda jealous! No sunshine on this side o’ town!
Well the only sunshine here is in my glass!!
hoping to see a flurry!
Be careful what you wish for….:)
Flurry we received!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We have had beautiful sunrises the past few days in NoVA- maybe it’s the spring like weather, I don’t know, but whatever it is I hope it lasts!
I need that table cloth.
Oh I like that purple bowl!! And the orange juice really does make it scream morning, but I’ll stick with my cup-o-joe in the morning!
I have to have OJ every morning with breakfast or I seriously become a grump. I do half OJ/half water so it’s not so sweet and chug that first thing every day. Our freezer is literally half full with OJ containers because I buy like 6 at a time when they go on sale!
Juice is one of those things I never think to buy… but some fresh squeezed OJ sounds wonderful right now. especially the Vitamin C with all the sickness going around!
I saw the wheat waffles at Whole Foods yesterday and contemplated them for a moment… but said no because my pantry does not need more cereal right now. And the serving size 3/4 cup? Really?
I was on an OJ kick when I first got my juicer, but got lazy because it’s such a pain to clean. I wonder if you can make it easier in the Vitamix…
Yeah but they are relatively low in calorie for a serving, so I usually just have two
Nothing like OJ to start the day. I had some myself not too long ago.
I love orange juice…especially in the form of a screwdriver
You make cereal look so pretty
Sunny start to my day today…wacky winter weather here in my part of Southern Ontario. Dog sitting this week…had a quick run then took the dog for a lovely spring like walk…oh how I miss our dog! My boys are in heaven…although their allergies and asthma are back in high gear…their also back on antihistamines and puffers…they are not complaining! Looking forward to a long walk this afternoon to tire this puppy out!
you always have such picture worthy breakfasts
And now I want OJ lol
Mmm looks delicious! I hope you have a great Monday morning!
I’m loving your “purple and gold” color scheme this morning– are you rooting for the LSU tigers like I am tonight?!?
I rarely drink orange juice, but if I’m somewhere with fresh squeezed I just can’t resist! so delicious!
I always forget about orange juice in winter unless it has champagne in it! It just seems like such a good summer drink, but I really should go pick some up for the cold/ flu season.
I really love OJ too and it’s never something I just have in the house so it’s always a treat when I get to have a glass
I completely agree- orange juice totally screams “it’s morning”! Yesterday morning I was feeling woozy and faint when I got to work, even after I’d eaten a light breakfast, and something told me to drink a glad of OJ and sure enough, I felt like a completely new person!

I’m going to have to go out and buy some to have on hand
Yum! I had fresh squeezed OJ this morning and it will probably be the only sunniness I will see today considering it’s a pretty gloomy forecast.
You’re right, that bright glass of orange juice certainly does say “good morning!” I’ve noticed that you add Chia seeds to a lot of your meals. What are the nutritional benefits?
Same to you! Enjoy your day.
Pretty bowl! Where’d you get that one?
I don’t remember!!
Oh, an antique store!
I love OJ, it’s definitely a breakfast staple in our house.
What a great breakfast to start the day!
Have a great week, Kath! Those wheat squares look great every time you post them. I have to try them.
It is sunny here, but probably cold outside–I have not been outside yet to know how it feels. I wish the snow would come!

I’m sure I’ve said this dozens of times, but this really is the pretties breakfast. Simplicity at its best. What a lovely way to start the day.
I’ve been on an OJ kick lately, which is funny because I’m not normally a juice person at all.
I’ve been on a SERIOUS oj kick lately. Not ALWAYS mixed with vodka. Only sometimes.
It’s so nice and I think we all feel better when It’s sunny!
OJ can be so tasty–I have to be in the mood though. Looks good!
Orange you happy it’s Monday?
Hiya! I’m a first time visitor.
I agree with Gina; I like my OJ watered down or with seltzer. Yummy.
Chia seeds are new to me. So is sun butter. I’m intrigued
Welcome!!
Sometimes just a simple bowl of cereal and a glass of orange juice is all you need to start an awesome day. After so many mornings of standing over the stove waiting for oats to boil or pancakes to start bubbling, it’s nice to just pour stuff in a bowl and eat it right then and there, don’t ya think? I hope you continue having nice weather out there. It’s dreary and cold here. Woohoo for the Pacific Northwest. Any good soup recipes you could throw my way would be greatly appreciated
Chai Seeds always make a meal better!
Hope you have a great Monday!
I’ve totally been craving some OJ the last 2 days. I need to pick up some single servings!
So funny to read this cereal described as “wheat waffles”…in Canada these are Shreddies! (A brand name obviously, but everyone calls them Shreddies no matter which brand you buy)
That breakfast looks delicious.
I stopped eating breakfast when I got depressed a couple of years ago, and piled on a lot of weight. Now I’m back to eating it (my usual is a top quality muesli with some soy milk, and a piece of fruit for after if I’m still hungry), and feel a lot more energised.
I’m starting to understand how important breakfast is.
I love using yogurt instead of milk in my cereal. Delicious! Not really a fan of oj but my kids love it and it really does make it feel like morning!
Happy Monday
I ordered Barney Butter on opensky. It is scheduled to be delivered today!!
ooooh delish!
Beautiful photos as per usual! Now I want some cereal.
I’ve never been an OJ in the morning kinda gal…guess it takes up valuable coffee room, haha! =)
