I'm ashamed to say I lack in the breakfast dept. I get the girls breakfast and by the time I steer hurricanes Kid 1 and Kid 2 out the door, into the van, and to their respective schools, I've usually managed to forget me. But sometimes I don't. Like last Friday I had a tuna salad sandwich on toast. It was terrific. Saturday on the way to dance class, I treated the girls to spam McGriddles and I had the pair of breakfast burritos.
Daily I drop into Starbucks for my venti-nonfat-peppermint-mocha-with-whipped and ussually pair it with a granola bar from a package bought at Costco. Why? Because I buy something "healthy" for the kids and they turn up their noses. Someone has to eat it!
Both kids love cinnamon toast. Kid one likes scrambled eggs. Both love Eggos as long as I draw pretty pictures on top with whipped cream.
If I'm good or have time, I like vanilla nonfat yogurt mixed with a chopped up granola bar, or better yet, wirh home made vanilla granola mixed with dried cranberries. I also like those pink grapefruit sections from Costco. Another favorite is a piece of the LaBrea bread. It has to be a day or two old with cold butter on top, French, Ciabata, or rosemary olive (in that order).

Lavagal, surely you don't give those two hurricanes a breakfast laden with sugar in it right? If so, that's probably half the reason they turn into hurricanes!
If you're on the go, try out Helen's TWIK, half of a TWIX. Only half the calories, sugar and carbs as a whole bar. Maybe chase it with a Diet Coke.
Today's Ouaker Instant Oatmeal Maple & Brown Sugar. Easy, just add hot water. Perfect for the desk. Hot Lipton Tea (caffeinated).
I don't usually eat breakfast. Maybe once or twice a month, I'll stop in McD's and have the hotcakes (no sausage) and a pint of milk. But usually, I just wait and have an early lunch.
My mistake in typing Twik instead of Twix and I did eat both bars on Friday morning.
Ssshhhh, quiet. Don't tell Lavagal that. Way too much sugar.
Today's Quaker Instant Oatmeal Maple n' Brown Sugar flavor with sliced Banana added in. Tastes like an apple-bannana pie! Can o' H.S. Lite Passio-Guava juice n' a Cup-o-joe.

Reason: Sugar rush ruined my typing
