365 True Things: 103/Breakfast

I start my breakfast first thing with a cup of coffee. Then another. Maybe another—until eventually my stomach reminds me that some food would be nice.

Usually, I have one of two things for breakfast: Dave's Killer Bread toasted in the toaster oven with white cheddar cheese melted on top; or Dorset Cereals Cherries & Berries Muesli with nonfat plain yogurt. I keep meaning to have a nutritious spinach-fruit smoothie for breakfast, but—I guess I'm a woman of habit. And habits are hard to break. Or in this case, start.

The only time my habits are happily ruptured is in summer when peaches come on the scene. Because my most favorite breakfast of all is original-size shredded wheat with fresh ripe peaches. And for a special treat, blueberries as well. With nonfat milk.

That is my idea of heaven. I might even go for the food after only one cup of coffee, when I've got peaches and shredded wheat stocked.

This comes to mind because today at the market, I bought my first peaches of the season. Which of course necessitated a trip to the cereal aisle. I am so ready for tomorrow morning.
