There are some aspects of my life that are staunchly defined. I have definite "creature of habit" tendencies about certain things. Namely.. food. There are some foods that I enjoy a certain way, have for decades, and really.. don't want to mess with them. Other foods, I love changing up and trying new things, but some.. just don't mess with. This is difficult at times, since the Bub's favorite style of cooking is finding the 10 most random things in the cabinet and pulling off a fantastic meal. But I can't really complain about that, can I.
One of my set meals is breakfast. I really enjoy a bowl of Cheerios and a big glass of cold milk with Carnation Instant Breakfast. I add the milk at the last possible moment to the Cheerios and try to eat them as quickly as possible so they don't get soggy. (wow, this is a really exciting post, eh?) It just makes me happy, and I know that if I am too busy to eat for the rest of the day, at least I started things off right.
Today, however, there was trouble in paradise. After our utterly fantastic bbq last night (post and pics to come), I was a bit tired this morning. Going through my normal routine, I scooped my Instant Breakfast.. directly on to the Cheerios. Now.. this would totally warrant me tossing them (I am bad, I know), but trying to learn from Trent's open mindedness, I poured the milk right on. And result... awesome. And quick! It is the best of both breakfasts in one!
So moral of the story.. try something new! You may just like it! But do not be ashamed of your requisite traditions.. if it makes you happy, go for it.
You and Wendy have the instant breakfast in common. I didn't know you liked that stuff!
ReplyDeletethat is really funny! im like you with wanting the same thing everyday, and the no-soggy cereal, i ate mine without milk until like high school or something. i still miss cheerios :( for some reason they sell the honey nut kind but not the plain kind here.
ReplyDeleteYou are SO funny. This post makes me happy...hehehe. Didn't I send some instant breakfast to Costa Rica? (Along with some other must haves- ahahah)
ReplyDeleteYou did!! It was one of the best care packages I have ever received.. instant breakfast, shampoo, benedryl, it was awesome. I was one lucky, and stinky, gal!
