RE: Breakfast of Champions, a freewrite

I have nothing against carbs, @owasco, but if I had a carb breakfast they'd probably have to scrape me off the floor. I need protein or fat with my carbs. I'm not diabetic but I do handle sugar (glucose) oddly.

As for butter...we go through bins of it. I especially load it up in my husband's food because he can use the extra calories, and he doesn't like big meals. So I concentrate those calories as much as possible.

Eggs, also. We eat eggs, mostly scrambled and cooked in...butter!

You're right. The lettuce just doesn't look appetizing as my first meal of the day. Interesting. Maybe because you grow it you have a special relationship :)
