Laura Leighton’s Simple Thrills

My favorite holiday ritual: On Christmas morning, we always make breakfast and everyone eats before we open any presents. I makemuffins and homemade applesauce, which I don’t think anyone likes
as much as I do … I just love the way it makes the house smell!

When I need an energy boost, nothing beats … an apple with peanut butter. Has to be natural peanut butter, though … I just can’t do that peanut butter with all the extra sugar.

When I hit an exercise rut, I … call a friend to meet me for a walk. It always helps to make exercising a social opportunity!

The thing that surprises me about myself: I’m not as good at multitasking as I think I used to be, and I’m starting to sound like such an oldlady (“Turn that music down,” “Ow, my back”)!

My favorite natural beauty trick: Drink lots of water!
And sleep ….wish I had time to get more of that, but at least drink water. Oh, and sunscreen—is that natural?

The secret to a happy marriage is … separate bathrooms—and closets.

My best advice for juggling work and family is … separate bathrooms—andclosets!

My happy-life mantra: Make time for friends and family. Giggle, eat good food.

Doug and I would never … use Cool Whip instead of real whipped cream.

    These are great tips, and they made me laugh! I could not agree with the separate bathroom and closet tip more :) I do drink a lot of water (and sleep, but not enough, of course) but I’ve found that paying attention to my nutrition through healthy foods and a few choice supplements (I love probiotics and vitamin D3) has really helped the way I feel. I cannot encourage this enough, it has saved my energy level!
