Do your kids get a hot breakfast before school?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
I was talking to a friend with who told me she still cooks a full breakfast for her three children before school every morning. My jaw practically hit the ground thinking about her cooking eggs or pancakes EVERY DAY.
I don’t know about you, but for my kids a hot breakfast means a bagel from the toaster oven.
I wholeheartedly agree that breakfast is an important meal and make sure my kids get something not too sugary in their stomachs to start their day off. Choices usually include bagels or toast, a healthy cereal, fruit or yogurt and orange juice.
I can’t imagine them being awake enough to actually care what they put in their mouths at 7am. I can’t imagine me being awake enough to actually cook something for them at that hour. It’s enough of a rush to get everyone out the door, run the various carpools to schools and for Rich and me to then get off to work without adding a single pan to wash.
What is your morning ritual like? Can you get it together to put an actually hot meal together to start the day?
