Yesterday was a crazy-busy work day for me, and consequently lunch didn’t happen until 3:30pm. On top of that, my husband had to work late, so it was another dinner for one night for me. I don’t mind at all, in fact since my lunch was so late a regular dinner wouldn’t have worked anyway. So, the stars were aligned…or something like that.
As 9pm approached, I started to get hungry, but not hungry enough to make an actual dinner for myself like some nights when I’m flying solo. So what did I end up having? Cereal!
I’ve loved breakfast for dinner ever since I was little, and I’m not sure there’s a kid out there who doesn’t. Whether it’s pancakes, waffles, crepes, omelets, fried eggs, or just…plain…cereal, sometimes there’s nothing better than breakfast for dinner. What a treat, especially as a child when having something like eggs after 10am seems almost, well, bad! But really, it’s oh-so-good. Mmmmm….
What’s your favorite breakfast for dinner memory?
I loved breakfast for dinner growing up. My mother made cornmeal waffles, or French Toast. I remember letting butter melt into the crevices of the waffle, then sprinkling with powdered sugar, and watching it morph into almost buttercream frosting.
That sounds heavenly! No wonder kids are infatuated with breakfast for dinner.
