Welcome to 2014!
Over the past few days, it occurred to me that the start of a New Year isn’t all that different from how one starts a new day.
In both cases, it often seems that the day – or the year before you – is an open slate.
Anything could happen, right?
(And often it does.)
How you begin your day sets you up for everything you will encounter by days’ end – including how you will handle the stresses that will inevitably come your way.
Hence the question:
What do you eat for breakfast?
Do you grab a bowl from the cupboard, snatch a bag of cereal, and call that a meal?
If you’ve included some fruit – such as fresh, organic berries – that’s terrific.
Truth is, you’re doing exactly what most Americans do, starting the day with a bowl of cereal and fruit.
(And while that’s OK, it’s not ideal – I’ll tell you why in a moment).
Breakfast is often one of the most challenging meals once you switch to a gluten-free diet.
At first, it might seem easy – all you need to do is trade your favorite breakfast cereal for a gluten-free substitute.
And that works just fine, until you hop on a plane and travel to a strange city.
Now what do you do?
