Write About Breakfast
I stand in front of my refrigerator for 5 minutes, sometimes 10, wondering what I can cobble together for breakfast.
My stomach rumbles like this_____________.
“What can I make with one egg, some margarine, leftover parm cheese and rice?”
New York 1 news is on in the background. All at once, I’m listening for Weather on the Ones, and for Pat Kiernan to say something snotty about the American Media.
“If I add some water to this orange juice, it will taste less sweet AND be healthier for me.”
I start to wonder what Pat Kiernan would eat for breakfast. Maybe he would make some waffles or french toast. Maybe he would drip syrup all over his plate in tiny dots and cut his cold butter in even rectangles.
(Love that Pat Kiernan.)
Maybe Pat Kiernan hates orange juice, prefers plum juice instead with a little bit of seltzer water. I could see Pat Kiernan standing at this kitchen table, tie tossed over his shoulder, trying not to get syrup on his chin.
Breakfast yesterday:
1 egg, three scoops of rice, a lot of soy sauce, and not enough orange juice
Breakfast today:
2 eggs, toasted raisin nut bread and water
