The other thing I do to is cook spring like recipes. Although I love the comfort foods such as stews and casseroles, I want the lighter meals this time of year.
Today for example, I ran an easy 3.5 miles this morning at 5:40 and although I needed gloves and a hat, I ran in shorts. It was a brisk run, but after a quarter mile, I was comfortable.
My plan was to make two types of muffins for the post run and also bring some to work. I prepped both recipes the night before and all I had to do was bake when I got back from the run. I made lemon-blueberry & orange-cranberry, both from recipes I had seen online. The ingredients made the house smell of spring with its citrus & fruity flavors.
