The Most Important Meal of the Day

Your breakfast is really so important
for it starts you off on every single day
many say its the day's most essential food
without it, you're not the same so some say

My usual breakfast for each day
40g of special k in my special bowl
mixed with a banana cut in slices
add some raisins and milk, let's roll!

Of course a nice cup of tea
with milk no sugar to top it off
then you feel ready to face the day
now that's splendid don't you agree?

But on holiday bI like a change
like croissant with butter to spread
along with my favourite raspberry jam
nice and flaky with coffee the right blend

So that's what makes my fab breakfast
enjoying that lovely early morning meal
setting you up for the rest of the day
profiting much to know it's the real deal

Nice one Gordon, and I agree with you 100%, but I should practice what I speak! I make a quick ham roll with cheese and a glass of milk, or two muffins with a cup of coffee, then go to the office across the corridor, we work from home! My husband is a good boy, but his eggs are his fave, 2 eggs, toast tea,oh and a banger Great write, Hugs and blessings, Jennifer. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
