I always ate with them. My fridge top held a bunch of boxes for them to choose from; NutriGrain, Cornflakes, Weetbix, Rice Bubbles. Cocoa Pops were a school holiday treat. One box only per holiday. We were up at 7am too, but most of the morning was pre-organised the night before, so we had plenty of time. School bags prepacked, clothes laid out, forms signed etc.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1495198733430494988.post-76510944564352987462011-07-08T17:10:32.758+10:002011-07-08T17:10:32.758+10:00We always have breakfast.

Homeschooling helps A LOT. Our earliest activity next term is at 11am. I'd probably be a malnourished crazy person if I had to be organised enough to manage a school run five days a week.tinsenpuphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11955496156384131307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1495198733430494988.post-59774225996166564862011-07-08T14:10:38.565+10:002011-07-08T14:10:38.565+10:00Porridge every moring in winter.

I know, I know, lucky me - awesome breakfast hubby!

I used to skip it to save calories, but it just doesn't work. So now I enjoy breakfast AND I'm still losing weight. During the school year, it's cereal bar/milk or cereal. If I have something warm, then it's a lite, frozen breakfast sandwich. All I have time for. And, I don't even allow myself time to have it at home! I rush out the door with it and eat it when I get to work!Kristy @Loveandblasphemyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02634987114195614214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1495198733430494988.post-6710158294392934842011-07-08T02:23:22.148+10:002011-07-08T02:23:22.148+10:00Coffee first, then porridge with syrup.

Our coffee machine broke a number of months ago and it has been a right pain to have to buy a coffee on the run.<br /><br />On days when we have to get out the door I have Carmen's muesli with yoghurt (Vaalia Passionfruit or Forme Blueberry/Strawberry etc). I'm not much of a milk person and I find that it can sit while I'm doing other tasks and come back to it every couple of mins and it doesn't get soggy. Also, if I'm really in a hurry I'll have a Carmen's Muesli bar while I'm driving (the kids are now eating them too for snacks). <br /><br />When time is not an issue/the weekend, we might have soft boiled eggs, stove cooked porridge, pancakes or sourdough with vegemite. <br /><br />dxxDoloreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05752310782630552117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1495198733430494988.post-62573951604918823422011-07-07T23:29:37.507+10:002011-07-07T23:29:37.507+10:00I may just faint if I skip breakfast!
