I listened to a podcast (Mel Robbins with Dr. Stacy Sims) about how most standards and studies on exercise and nutrition are based on men. As women when it comes to exercise especially as we age, it's very different. One of the big things was eating protein as soon as you wake up. Not being a morning person it's been a challenge to eat that early. When I did a lot of international traveling to third would countires, hard boiled eggs was the only type of protein we could safely eat. I'm not an egg fan after all that. Eggs being one of the easiest things to make in the morning, I'm pushing through. I've added a scrambled egg (Japanese style) to my garlic naan that I've fried in olive oil. I also have greek yogurt for something quick to fuel up my body and brain.
Flat Fish Paper Arts was born many years ago when blogging first started. My family did a lot of camping and diving along the California coast. California halibut are huge fish that start out as any normal fish. As they age, one eye will start to move to the other side and the halibut will become flat so it can lay on the bottom of the ocean with both eyes facing up.
I always like the idea that we all start out the same but life experiences slowly changes us. In my case, my creative talents went the way of paper arts. Flatfish are always looking up when they mature and as with any artist, we see inspiration in everything around us - always looking up.

Years ago a local dive shop had a photo of a diver who caught a halibut so big he had to throw it over his jeep to take the picture. Our little spoof with our daughter sitting in her toy jeep with dad's halibut on the hood. 1987
