Today is the start of week two with my boycott on cereal. So far so good. We have had toast, pancakes, french toast a.k.a. the special toast per Gaige, and Quiche. The Quiche was not a hit, Gaige and I loved it, sadly, Rach and Elijah were basically force-fed. As we speak/read/type our breakfast for Wednesday morning is in the oven, banana muffins! I have really enjoyed making breakfast special for the kids, they seem to really be enjoying this trend as well. I am needing some more ideas to help bring variety. The boys don’t like oatmeal or scrambled/fried eggs, maybe cream of wheat will be a go for Thursday. Being the good little blogger I am I will keep you posted.
Oh yeah, the only thing I have bought special thus far for this endeavor is the sour cream for the muffins. And the constant hunger pains felt by the Crutchfield clan seems to be at bay. Who knew a hearty breakfast would solve the never ending whines?

What about a Crutchfield Mcmuffin? English muffin, egg (or no egg) cheese and ham or sausage? They have these metal rings at Bed Bath and Beyond that will let you make the round cooked egg. You could make your own granola? Granola and yogurt? Cinnamon rolls? Wiener wraps (as my mom would call them, otherwise known as pigs in a blanket) with breakfast sausage not hot dogs of course? Just a few thoughts…

Uncle Chad says ‘egg tacos’ every morning ;0)… microwave two eggs in a mug (spray mug with olive oil), melt chz and either turkey bacon or lunch meat on a flour tortilla…wha-la! The boys do much better at focusing at the school table when they eat a more substantial breakfast… so I think you are onto something!
