Breakfast..

Nearly every morning the Kiddo has a bowl of cereal for breakfast. Usually it's cheerios, or frosted mini wheats, this week it's trix (I felt nice so let HIM pick). And on the rare occasion he will ask if he can have a "mommie" breakfast, and get some cottage cheese with fruit.

I have always had a slightly glowly happy feeling that at least for breakfast I was feeding him something healthy and good for him.

Then the other day I was browsing a forum and came across a thread of people ranting against cereal as a good thing to eat for breakfast. How in the commercials you MUST notice it says "as part of a complete breakfast" NOT "eat it by itself and be healthy". They were very adamant about how you'd be better off eating toast and ham and eggs and orange juice.

I thought what? I mean obviously cereal doesn't give you all the nutrients you need in a day but jeez people get a grip! If you google it there really are quite a few articles that say cereal is GOOD for breakfast, of course probably not if you eat coco pebbles every day...

I eat either cheerios with milk, or cottage cheese (sometimes with pineapple, or a banana, or apple).

It's not like I'm throwing a handful of cookies down with a big glass of sugary chocolate milk and some icecream yeesh
Speaking of cookies... did you know they make Heath Toffee chocolate chips??!! I did NOT know that until my last grocery store trip when my eyes tripped over them in the baking isle. I may just have to buy a bag and see how they do in a chocolate chip cookie recipe *drool*
