A Poem About Lunch Peace, By Captain Magenta

When the dog disturbs you

When you're trying to have your lunch,

It's important you look after yourself

And find someplace else to munch

Gratitude Plates

What's one way to bring gratitude to the dinner table outside of saying out loud what you're thankful for? Writing on a paper plate what you're thankful for, of course! And I'm here to show you how to make those gratitude plates, just in time for lunch or dinner. Or breakfast if you have toast or a cheeseburger.

You will need:

• A pack of paper plates
• Some felt tips or permanent markers

1. Get out some paper plates (or maybe one if it's near to lunch or dinner) and colour a pattern around the edges of the plate using three colours. Mine would be using yellow, pink and purple. What's your's?
2. With each time you approach the table with your chosen plate, and wait for dinner, you write down some things you're grateful for. Bonus points if it's something you really enjoy!

And then, you're ready to enjoy your meal - because meals aren't complete without gratitude, it's not just for Thanksgiving.

A Little Bit Of Cinnamoroll...

Morning, everyone!

Recently I saw a video about Cinamoroll, Sanrio's cutest character besides Hello Kitty and Pompompurin, having his morning routine, and it's the cutest one yet! He washed his face, then brushed his teeth, and then went downstairs to the kitchen to cook himself some breakfast. So, I'm going to take a leaf out of this little guy's book and have my own morning routine, which I call a 'Cinnamoroutine'. You can try it too yourself, it's easy!

First, when you get up in the morning, it's important to understand how itchy facial spots can get, especially when it comes to acne you got as a teenager, so, wash your face very carefully with a washcloth or a shower flower. It gets rid of all those annoying histamine bugs underneath your skin and makes it smoother and less itchy.

Next, it's really important that you brush your teeth. According to one video I saw, if you don't brush and floss your teeth every day, a strange substance on your teeth combines with sugar from your food and can cause cavities, so a nice, long brush, even brushing the gums, can do your dirty teeth from a long night the world of good.

Next, go into the kitchen and prepare yourself a nourishing breakfast. Now I may like Bluey Cereal as my own personal favourite, because the biscuits taste of vanilla and they go great with milk, especially after H took me out to get this and a Bluey advent calendar. But, the most important and nutritious part of all breakfasts you can have is something exciting - like cheeseburgers, sausage rolls, pork cocktail sausages and chicken bites.

I'm sticking to that routine from now on, and you should be too!

Oh, and it also applies to bedtime too - except, you can still wash your face and brush your teeth, but instead of a large, filling meal, have a gentle, warm mug of camomile tea. That's what Cinamoroll should tell you if you were to get sleep advice from him.

So, no need to wake up to a rooster crowing. Wake up to the sound of your own instincts and do it like Cinamoroll!
