Good morning!
I’m a little bit behind on my magazine reading, but the other day, I read a Katie Couric interview with Ellen DeGeneres in Glamour (March 2010). Reading Ellen’s interview made me like her even more– and I’m already pretty obsessed. She’s definitely my life role model. Ellen is so positive, upbeat, and such a kind person. My goal for 2011 is to see her show live!
Here are a few things that Ellen said in the interview that I especially loved:
KC: What advice she would give to young women?
ED: Find out who you are and be that person. That’s what your soul was put on this earth to be. Find that truth, live that truth, and everything else will come.
KC: Does it bother you that women are so obsessed with their bodies?
ED: Yeah. We put the wrong emphasis on what beauty is and what health is. Heath is being vibrant and having energy and being happy.
That Ellen is a wise woman!! Do you see why I love her so much? I can only imagine how fun it would be to hang out with her! Maybe my goal for 2011 should be to meet her in person?!? 😉
I also love Michelle Obama. She’s so strong, yet classy, and, of course, so intelligent! She’s already had a wonderful impact on our country.
Breakfast
Yuuuummm! I had a really tasty breakfast this morning: an egg white omelet with pesto, asparagus, and mozzarella. Doesn’t that just sound delicious!?
Key ingredients: Mezzetta Napa Valley Bistro Pesto + steamed asparagus.
I added my omelet to a bed of spring mix, which made breakfast seem sort of fancy!
I also enjoyed a glass of iced coffee with vanilla soy milk.
Busy Friday ahead! Better get crackin’!
