According to many dietists, taking time for your
breakfast is a key to healthiness..
Anytime I go out for breakfast I order a water and
an apple juice and an orange juice and a mint tea
and a regular tea and a coffee and then ask if I can
get them all in to go cups because there is no way
I can consume the thousand gallons of beverages
I have unnecessarily ordered even though I
defenitely need them all.
