What's the difference between familiarity and monotony? What's the difference between riskiness and recklessness?
Almost every morning for the past year, I've had the same breakfast:
A) Slice of whole wheat toast with almond butter, peanut butter, Nutella (or a generic equivalent), sliced banana, cinammon, and possibly honey. This stemmed out of a recipe I made for my version of an Elvis sandwich. I call it Alex's Pelvis (Alex P's version of an Elvis). It is comprised of the above ingredients between two slices of toast and grilled on the stove. Or better yet, one slice of toast sliced width-wise into two thin slices. This is to let the creamy inside of the sandwich really shine. Also, I put the but butters on one slice but leave the Nutella and honey for the other slice so that when the sandwich is grilled, the honey and the Nutella caramelize a bit.
B) Home fries fried in a small amount of oil; fluffy on the inside but golden and crispy on the outside; seasoned with black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika; served with ketchup and barbecue sauce.
C) Scrambled egg if I worked out that morning.
Is there something wrong with this? Do I need to get out of my comfort zone? Or have I just found the perfect combination of healthy and delicious? I don't get sick of this combination, so something has fallen into place. Even if it is perfect, should I mix it up for the sake of adding variety and not getting my body (...and soul. Just try the Pelvis.) accustomed to one thing?
Whatever. It puts me in a good mood and prepares me for the day. That's enough for me to make a habit.
