Thanks! It does seem to get the engine started very well without inordinately raising the blood sugar...and it has the variety of many nutrient sources, and yet the satisfaction of the more familiar cereals I grew up with, but which my body can’t easily handle in normal amounts.

I never got into the habit of cereal for breakfast. Other than an occasional bowl of malt o meal, cream of wheat, or oatmeal.

My idea of breakfast when I was young was a piece of bacon, and a homemade biscuit with homemade black berry jelly, and a cup of milk from the cows-that’s down on granny’s farm.

The other granny had a restaurant, and there we had eggs and bacon, sausage, or ham, hash browns, and biscuits and gravy.

At home, we had the cereals, and so I either skipped breakfast or just drank some juice. School didn’t start till 9am and lunch was at 11 am, so it wasn’t a big deal to just wait to eat lunch.

So I had lots of plans for this weekend. However, late Friday evening, I started getting a sore throat and fever.

Yesterday, I made up lots of liguidy stuff to eat. Chicken noodle soup with extra garlic and onions and stuff. Beef barly veggie soup with lots of extra garlic and onions.

Spiced tea made with orange and lemon peels, cinnamon and nutmeg, hibiccus, rose hips, and euchinacea. Add fresh lemon juice(from my homegrown lemon tree) and honey.

I actually did go out and forage a bit. Got some persimmons, hickory nuts, and sassafrass leaves. I am getting better at knowing the persimmons that are just right to eat.LOL

Getting a bit better, but I won’t be able to get all the stuff done this weekend I had planned on.
