Of all the blogs I've posted so far...about 60...strangely enough I've received more comments on what I should eat for breakfast than for any other blog. For example:
How about breakfast out. You can call it breakfast (or anything else you want) and the rest of the world can call it brunch, lunch or second breakfast. I will be glad to join you in such a venture when I return in 3 or 4 weeks. Until then, may I suggest 2 Mallomars and a glass of milk....or...
1. BreakfastA. Pop Tarts!B. Oatmeal. Not the kind your grandmother used to make. In the 21st century, futuristic pre-measured packets exist; you just add water or milk, put in the microwave, and there you are. And they have many flavors: maple raisin, apple cinnamon, etc.
or...
I occasionally enjoy a half grapefruit slightly sprinkled with sugar, using one of those spoons with a serated edge just for grapefruit, and then I eat the other half! I then squeeze the leftover juice from them into a glass, and drink it all up!No cereal or oatmeal for me...that's jail food!
or...
since you don't want to cook, how about going to the store and buying some microwaveable breakfast bowls, or hot pockets breakfast things. then all you have to do is microwave them and eat. no mess, and no fuss,except for the fork to eat with.
JR, my son sent the one about pop tarts & pre-measured breakfast packets. I told him those things are for baby boomers and that I'm used to greatest generationist food. So he commented as follows:
If you can only eat Greatest Generation food, then I wish you good luck with your Ovaltine, Cod Liver Oil, and SPAM.
So, I told him that I love that stuff & where can I get it? Anyway, never did I think that so many were worried about so few. Tomorrow I'm having nova and cream cheese on a sesame bagel & a cup of coffee.
I usually sleep to about 10:30 or 11:oo to make up for all the years I had to get up at 6:30 so I could get to Home Room at 8am. But tomorrow is a special day. Rhoda is going in for her cataract surgery, and she has to be at the hospital at 8:15. Therefore, I have to forego my sleep and arise and shine at 7. I know she's going to be nervous about the procedure, but no one can blame her after the events that followed the first cataract removal surgery. No she can only read large print books--so perhaps this time she might be able to go back to the regular small print books. The Lord taketh...but sometimes he also giveth. Who knows?
Today I had to go to the VA for some dental work and Rhoda went to her sister's place for lunch and to see Matthew the 14 month old boy born to Geri's son, Brian and his wife Deanna. Rhoda said the kid looks just like Geri's son, Howard who was killed with his father in an automobile accident years ago. I have no idea how a mother and wife could survive such a catastrophe, but she did. And now she Geri has a grandson remindful (is that a word?..I don't have time to find out) of the son she lost. And so the Lord taketh away...but sometimes he also giveth.
