You're kids don't know how good they have it. Will you come make breakfast at our house? My poor kids think it's a treat when we have granola in the house rather than the regular cold cereals...

I tell my kids: "this is what I made for breakfast. You can eat this or wait until the next meal is served." We usually made our own breakfast as kids. Sometimes, on the weekends, my mom would make french toast. But, we knew better than to complain. Actually, I think we were afraid to complain. Why can't my kids have that same fear???

I make mine homemade too, but sometimes it's nice to switch it up to keep them on their toes. And perhaps you should send your husband in every morning.. Share that great recipe, Mel.

His hotcakes were to die for --I can't quit calling them 'hotcakes' because my parents were New Englanders and that's what I grew up hearing, ha! But we lived in a small town where we had an hour for lunch every day and could come home. My mom made up for sleeping in by giving us GREAT hot lunches she'd have ready for us as soon as we walked in the door. We'd gobble it down, then be back at school for half an hour of recess before it was time to go back to the books. Good grief, I hadn't thought about THAT memory in years! :-O My mom used to sleep in every morning and my dad was the one to fix breakfast for my 3 brothers and me before school.

That is so funny! For a week I made all sorts of great, new homemade meals. Friday night my hubby was working so I did mac and cheese and hot dogs. My kids screamed "Yea! Finally our favorite dinner!" :) Ha! That is so funny! For a week I made all sorts of great, new homemade meals. Friday night my hubby was working so I did mac and cheese and hot dogs.
