I totally shocked my then 5 or 6 year old son by allowing us to eat chocolate cake for breakfast once. He suggested it as a joke, and when I shrugged and said, “Sure, why not?” he looked like this: :eek:
*Four banana, three banana, two banana, one
All bananas playing in the bright warm sun,
Flipping like a pancake, popping like a cork,
Fleagle, Bingo, Drooper and, Snork *

We did have a big glass of milk with the cake, as I recall. “Part of this complete breakfast!”
Of course, y’all are grownups now. You COULD go get your *own *chocolate cake, y’know!
Hmmm…I wonder what time the toddler would go to bed if we had banana splits for dinner…
Hee. When my parents had people over we would have the leftover dessert for breakfast the next day. Or we would have leftover birthday cake the next day. That may be where I got the habit of pouring milk over cake; it would make it more like cereal.
And once I had a pint of Ben & Jerry’s Chunky Monkey for breakfast. Hey, it has banana, just like cereal can.
Sometimes when my sister is visiting my mom will make what we call “junk supper.” Basically you get out all the junk food you can find and have an all-you-can-eat buffet. It’s great fun.
Sorry, Anaamika, I must use my powers where the need is greatest:
[MOM VOICE] David Middlename Simmons! Stop being a darn fool and enjoy the good things in life once in a while! Get your backside to the nearest Premium Ice Creme Parlor and order yourself a banana split and DON’T let me see your pixels in here again without hot fudge smeared on them, young man![/MOM VOICE]
