I showed you a few weeks ago about a birdhouse with a window in the back. So
that you can hang it in front of a window and watch in the back how the birds
make their nests and see the babies hatch.
This is how ours turned out. Only difference is we made the back so you can lift
it up and clean it out. Since birds don't like to come to a place that already has
a nest built.
We used a small 3x4 picture frame, since it already had the glass in it. They
were cheap to pick up at the discount store. We used a super glue type of glue
to hold the glass in place.
Using a 1x6 piece of lumber made it easy to cut and put together. We used the
inside of an old cupboard door as the top. We took the outside frame off and
ended up with the top after we cut it in half. We left them all natural so to
resemble the look and smell of trees. We also hooked them to a double
shepherds hook. That way we didn't have 2 posts in the flower garden.
I also took the mesh bag you get oranges in and filled it with the lint from the
dryer. Then wove strands of yarn in and out of it, then hung it on one of the
trees in our front yard. That way they have things to help build the nests.
We have a nice fried egg sandwich with a slice of cheese on 100% whole wheat bread with flax seed. We sometimes toast it. Then add a fruit, today it was strawberries. Then enjoy a nice hot cup of Chai tea.
This was my plate, as you can see I put ketchup on my sandwich. I grew up eating my fried egg sandwiches this way and they just don't taste the same any other way.
We do sometimes have scrambled eggs and toast. But we always make sure we have a breakfast within an hour of being up.
We eat 3 decent meals a day along with snacks in between. Then after our workout after Mr. L. comes home at midnight we have changed to a protein shake. But you could have a bit of tuna, peanut butter or nuts. Some protein before bed is better than fruit. We were just enlightened on that by our workout Coach. Since the fruit has sugar, be it natural sugar- it is still sugar. Sugar is a No No before bed... Even though we stay up another 2 hours after our workouts.
Just wanted to share some of our eating habits with you. They really aren't that hard to do.
