Aloha Friday - #3

Aloha Everyone! Can you believe we made it to Friday? We survived the week, so to celebrate let's sit back and relax. No heavy mental lifting today... just one simple little question...

What is your typical breakfast?

Yeah, I guess as it nears 1 am here, I have breakfast on the brain! My typical breakfast is oatmeal. I add a little handful of almonds and a few dried cranberries to it. This is quick and healthy and tides me over till I can squeeze in lunch. With two kids I am very busy in the morning preparing bottles, changing diapers and getting food and snacks all set up. Is my breakfast glamorous? No. But, I can make it one handed and in my sleep.

So tell me, are you a skip it sort, or do you go for a Grand Slam? Give me some new ideas on the hope that someday I will be able to spend time on breakfast again in the future. Thanks for your comments. I love reading them.

If you want more Aloha Friday fun, go to An Island Life and check out the other posts on the Linky.

  8. It depends on my mood, I suppose.
    I either grab some cereal, oatmeal or waffles with poached eggs.

  9. Oh I usually skip breakfast! When I do eat breakfast though, it's usually when I am out on vacation up in Big Bear. I usually will get The Gunny which is eggs with ham, cheese, & onions hashbrowns, and english muffin. If I am at home and I have breakfast, it is usually just cereal.

  13. Lately, it's been the Atkins diet items.
    Breakfast is the best part about the diet.

  15. I usually feed Lizzie a bowl of cereal and I skip. I might drink a glass of juice, but cereal is not a big meal here.

  16. Visiting from Friday Follow. Great blog- I love food. :) I love a huge breakfast, though sometimes I do end up skipping. I notice that when I do eat a substantial breakfast I eat less the rest of the day.

  17. Eggs or leftovers from the night before. If I'm really desperate than cereal. Following you from friday follow.

  18. I love breakfast! I eat bagels with cream cheese, I do like oatmeal too, I will eat eggs, pancakes, waffles, english muffins, etc. I guess there isn't any breakfast food I won't eat - lol.

    I did Aloha Friday too, and Friday Follow. I'm following you now! Hope you have a great weekend :)

  19. Here from FF. Hope you'll have time to come by and see our blog/vlog. We're often silly and sometimes serious. Depending on the day! And...yeah...I'm a coffee only girl in the morning until 11am. Then it might be breakfast or dinner...depending on the mood. Holly:)

  20. I love oatmeal with "stuff" in it, of course my breakfast depends on how much time I have in the AM. Getting two kids out the door and to work on time sometimes leaves me with only coffee! I tend to eat a lot of small meals in the day so.... breakfast sometimes happens at 10am....

  21. I like oatmeal, but the points were really high. I switched lately to Light English Muffins with a small amount of preserves on them.

  22. I love breakfast. Pancakes are my fave, but that is normally just weekends. I also like cereal and yogurt. Normally what I eat during the week, or sometimes Eggs with toast.

  23. I used to love to grab a bagel but OH the calories!!! Now, I usually skip it (and I know that's bad), grab a granola bar or what I really love is a bowl of Special K with bluberries, strawberries and soy milk. On occasion, I love when my hubby makes pancakes on the weekends! ~mymiracles77 (http://myordinarymiraclesblog.com)

  24. I don't usually eat breakfast. Sometimes I make muffins and when I do I will have one for breakfast.

  25. We're a big "protein for breakfast" family, so eggs, oatmeal, bacon are commonplace on our tables! Following you through FF!

  27. I live for Breakfast! I love almost everything. I hate Runny eggs. I love cereal, eggs, english muffins, pancakes and many many more. Of course for me, the more unhealthy, the more I LOVE it! SO, Coffee cakes, Sticky Buns, Doughnuts, and the like are my kryptonite! I'm sooo hungry now.
    Steak for dinner, but I'm already planning a dangerous breakfast!
    Happy Friday Follow! I'm following you now!
    Hope to see you my way soon!
