Breakfast Time - Introduction

My favourite meal of the day is breakfast, and my favourite breakfast if oatmeal. I could eat oatmeal every day and not tire of it. I've been known to have it for breakfast and for a bedtime snack. However, my children  are not quite as enthusiastic as I am about oatmeal. So every once in a while we take a break from oatmeal (sigh) and do something different. I thought it would be fun to do a series featuring all different kinds of breakfast foods.  If nothing else, my children will have some variety in their breakfasts for a while as we try out other kinds of breakfast meals.

 

We'll have posts on cereals - hot and cold, pancakes, muffins, coffee cakes, eggs, etc. We'll also have a voting tournament to come up with an "ideal" breakfast, and one day we'll have a guest posting. It's going to be a lot of fun including a giveaway. So get ready for a few days of yummy breakfast ideas.

While you're waiting for these posts, you can check out Wikipedia's article on the "History of Breakfast" - very interesting. Breakfast has gone up and down in popularity. I totally agree with the current thinking that breakfast is a meal not to be skipped. I don't function well until I have mine. Of course, some of that may have to do with the fact that I still have a baby who nurses several times a night so I generally wake up hungry. ☺

You could also check out my Pinterest board "Food - Breakfast" for more ideas on what to make for breakfast including some you can make the night before or put in the freezer for busy mornings.

What's your favourite breakfast?
