Perhaps it’s that my personality craves change, or I enjoy the constant hunt for new things…whether it’s flavours and snapshots of beautiful skies or words that set fire to my heart.<\/p>\n

Soooo…here’s the time where I share what’s currently adding colour into my life in pictures!<\/p>\n

\"Fruit<\/p>\n

1. Fruit Bowls for Breakfast<\/strong><\/span> – saying goodbye to summer has been bittersweet, but somehow a colourful bowl of freshly diced watermelon or red grapes just make<\/em> my morning. Tip: It’s good to pair fruit with low-fat protein (like egg whites or yogurt) to balance the higher sugar content of these sorts of fruit. Sugar from fruit is in no way bad for you! I’m not a sugar hater IF it’s natural…in small amounts it fits perfectly into my low-sugar lifestyle.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"I'm<\/p>\n

2. Hairbows<\/strong> <\/span>– this is something I thought I’d never resurrect in my fashion life, but I really like them! Who knows? Maybe I’ll be wearing scrunchies and fluffy bangs again too (wink)!<\/p>\n

\"Eggs,<\/p>\n

3. Organic eggs, bacon, and coffee<\/strong><\/span> – guys! This breakfast never gets old. The protein holds me over and the fat in this meal makes me feel satisfied. I used to eat a very low fat diet and it was not fun. I never felt full…so I was always eating.<\/p>\n

\"Summer<\/p>\n

4. The Last Summer Strawberries<\/strong> <\/strong><\/span>– it may be October, but we have one more picking of strawberries left! Strawberries from your own garden CANNOT be beat! Seriously, those store-bought strawberries have no flavour compared to ours! They might be smaller than from the store, but they are so sweet and delicious. Bigger is not always better!<\/p>\n

\"Colourful<\/p>\n

5. Periscope<\/span> <\/strong>– I’ve had so much fun connecting with other bloggers and friends with Periscope. It took me a while to jump on the Periscope train, but I’m glad I did. Soon, I’ll be making some scopes, but for the moment I’m still “scope stalking”.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

6. This Book<\/strong><\/span> – I have about 4 books on the go at the same time. Always.<\/p>\n

To me, they’re all for different moods. I usually have a book of psychology\/business, a devotional\/spiritual book, health book, or an art or creative “how-to” book going on. I really enjoyed “The Willpower Instinct”<\/a> as it gave me more insight as to how the brain works in conjunction with self-control. I found that it armed me with practical strategies for overcoming the things that can keep me from my goals…I highly recommend this one! If you ever want to see what else I’m reading, I often post using the hashtag #colourfulreads on my Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Remarkable<\/p>\n

7. Sunsets<\/strong><\/span> – lately, the sunsets have been magical light shows. This is my favourite thing about where I live. I’m sure the sunrises are good too, but as someone once said, “They’re just like sunsets, only backwards”. While I want to be an early morning person, I’d rather watch the sunsets and get up a smidge later (smile).<\/p>\n

What is bringing colour into your week? Have you tried Periscope yet?
