Accessible Theme is getting an update!

A much needed update.

The layout will mostly be the same, just improving the design and fixing the issues with the code. Here’s what’s changing: 

  • Cleaning up and organizing the code
    • adding a css directory for easier editing
  • Fixing the sidebar
    • Making the sidebar’s layout flow better
    • Adding options to remove the header / get rid of the angle of the header
    • Adding @themehive‘s new icon font
  • Making the theme responsive
  • Adding more color options
  • Adding dashboard captions

I’m not sure when I’ll be able to finish this update, but it is planned and will be the next theme I “release” (it’s just an update, not a separate theme). 

Here is the link to the code!

On repeat because it keeps me calm. 

Not gourmet, BUT here are some low-spoon breakfast tips:

1-Spoon

  • Switch out your cereal for granola. Granola is jam-packed with nuts, seeds, whole grains etc (and it’s also easy to find a gluten-free or nut-free granola). A dense, nutty granola like “Kind Peanut Butter Clusters” (my personal favorite) gives you protein, oils and all the good stuff that cereal just can’t deliver. (NOTE: They just started making single-serve granola in a cup at grocery stores, which even removes the bowl step!)

  • Yogurt is better than milk. Yogurt has a longer shelf life than milk, and it is full of protein. It comes in tons of flavors, mix-ins and fat %, so you can tailor it to your tastes/needs. + you can easily find single-serve cups, so you can eat it with just a spoon.

  • Berries rock. If you want something fresh at breakfast, blackberries, blueberries, and raspberries are easy because they don’t need to be cut/are hard to eat(like bananas or apples). Add them to yogurt, cereal, oatmeal etc (DOWNSIDE: short shelf life.)

  • Smoothies/Protein Drinks are easy and can be bought in bulk. For tough mornings, stock up on smoothies or protein drinks. They come in a ton of flavors and options.

    • “Clinical” drinks are formulas balanced with all the nutrients you need. Try: Ensure, Boost

    • “Protein Shakes” are targeted at athletes, so they’ve got lots of vitamins as well. Often they don’t need to be refrigerated !!! Try: Svelte, Muscle Milk

    • “Smoothies” are usually made of fruits and veggies. They aren’t as well balanced, but can be great alternatives to fresh fruits/veggies on low spoon days. Try: Naked, Suja Juice

2-Spoon

  • Oatmeal! Instant oatmeal isn’t instant, but it’s pretty quick. Usually, you tear a package into a bowl, add water and microwave. Some stores have started selling oatmeal in cardboard bowls, which removes step #1. It’s warm + filling and most find it pretty easy to eat. You can add stuff in to make it extra nutritious without major effort. Try:

  • Try dipping instead of spreading on toast. Even if you’ve got a toaster, making toast can be a lot of work. To save energy, don’t bother spreading your butter, jam, peanut butter etc with a knife. Instead, plop some on your plate and dip your toast into the spread itself. Sounds silly, I know, but it tastes the same and now you don’t have to wield a butter knife. Even easier: find the single packs of spreads so you can skip lifting the heavy jar.

  • Skip the egg. Eggs can be tricky and quickly energy-draining. For a savory breakfast, substitute your egg sliced turkey, chicken or ham. This gives you the protein of an egg for way less effort, and is great in a breakfast sandwich. If you’re feeling up to it, add a slice of cheese and microwave/toaster oven/oven that sucker so it’s all warm+gooey. Yum.

  • Raisins or other dried fruits (LONG shelf life!)

    • Nut Butter (yess protein)

    • Pre-chopped nuts (ditto)

    • Jams and jellies, honey, syrup (yumm)

    • Any fresh fruit you’ve got lying around

    • Brown sugar, cinnamon and other spices

  • How to (correctly) consume a Muffin

    • Buy a muffin at the store, store it in your fridge to keep it longer

    • When the muffin’s death is nigh, place it in a bowl upside down (wrapper side facing the sky)

    • Remove the wrapper, and microwave 20-30 seconds

    • Grab a spoon and eat that warm muffin like a champ. You deserve this.

    • If energy permits, add some yogurt, pb, fruit etc to your bowl o’ muffin.

3-Spoon

  • Yummy apple slices. Slice an apple, and place on a plate with cinnamon and sugar. Microwave for 30-60 sec. It’ll taste like the inside of an apple pie. Great on toast with nut butter (or whateva)

  • Egg in a cup. Crack your egg into a microwave-safe mug. Microwave on HIGH for a min (add more time if you’re egg isn’t cooked!!). Eat directly from mug. Feel free to mix-in cheese, salt+pepper, canned chicken, leftover pasta sauce etc. There are no rules.

  • Make a breakfast banana boat (very fancy). Preheat oven/toaster oven to 350. Slice an unpeeled banana vertically, creating a slit. In your banana pocket, add nut butter, chocolate chips, granola, nuts, raisins, really anything your stomach desires. Wrap your banana boat in tinfoil, and throw it in the oven for 5 min. Pull out, eat out of the peel with a spoon. Best part? No clean up!!

Just a heads up if you make posters, banners, colored tumblr posts, or anything of that nature to be cautious of using red and green together or near by! Red and green color blindness is the most common form (not the only form) therefore text and images using those colors can result in people not seeing your work, having head aches, growing frustrated, as well as other reactions. An always safe solution is black text!

Do you have epilepsy and can’t have gifs on your dash?

There’s are several ways to turn off all gifs on your dashboard.

  1. If you have XKit, you can download the “Disable Gifs” extension.
  2. If you want to (permanently) disable any gifs on the web, follow this handy guide (works for Firefox, Internet Explorer and Opera).
  3. There is a Chrome extension that pauses all gifs until you click to start them.
