What's for breakfast? (2025)

And that’s why we love them

Btw, when my PIC and I were at the supermarket yesterday and he seemed to be heading to the cereal aisle, I asked him if he was out of geezer buds. He almost lost his ish laughing.

I’ve grown to really like the geezer buds, can’t eat overly sweet cereal anymore and I can add whatever I want to enhance the flavour . I tried their “twigs and sticks “ flavour, but they were pretty gross

I’ve not had cereal (frosted flakes for the most part) since childhood

And my PIC can have all the geezer buds in the house

Overnight oatmeal, sliced banana, oolong tea.

Pecan waffles with gifted WI maple syrup. A friend taps his 40 maple trees on his WI vacation land each spring and boils the sap down for syrup. Only rarely does he yield enough to gift some, and I was honored to get a small jug of vintage 2024. Waffles used my husband’s family pancake mix recipe (below). They owned a grain mill in Iowa and packaged and sold the mix as well as flours, locally.

Needs moar syrup!!

The pancakes are merely a vessel for the maple syrup

As they should be

Needed to use up some bananas and at 1 a.m. when I couldnt fall asleep, I looked up banana pancakes. Made them this morning.

Not bad. Is there enough syrup, @PedroPero ?
