proverbs for mommas

in memory of dr. suess and his "green eggs and ham", i taught the b how to make an omelette.

"give a man an omelette and he will eat for a day. teach a man to make an omelette and he will eat for the rest of his life." proverb--adjusted to fit--or at least until we are out of eggs....again.


Would you eat them
in a box?
Would you eat them
with a fox?
--dr. suess

he will eat them with a fork.
he would eat them with a spork.

he will eat them with a cat.
he will eat them sportin' a hat.

he will eat them with his brother.
he will make one for his mother.....well, i'm still waiting. ;)

breakfast of champions

i did not invent that title. i borrowed it. illegally. i'm such a gangsta'(as my boys would say....like when i sneak la croix grapefruit sparkling water into the movie theater) ::ahem:: back to what i really want to talk about....

i'm not interested in re-inventing the wheel. or re-inventing anything. i am interested in recognizing what is working and what isn't.

what has worked for me--for feeling good and losing weight. eating breakfast.

i stopped eating breakfast regularly in high school. i know.

when i was really most successful in my weight loss, i was eating breakfast every morning, within 2 hours of getting out of bed. nothing i have to think about. the same thing every morning.

my breakfast of choice?
oatmeal with lots of cinnamon (much more than a dash), blueberries and a splash of milk.

it is warm and creamy and fruity--a little nutty and delicious. it's not pie. but, it's almost a cobbler. yum-meeeee:)

what are you eating for breakfast? you are eating breakfast, aren't you? you know it's the most important meal of the day, right? oh, right. sorry. went a little *momma* on you. my apologies.


best
