Big Breakfast Sundays


Usually breakfasts are the lightest meals for us. Cereals, a sandwich, some yogurt or tomatoes, milk, juices or coffee. Sometimes we will indulge and go to Coffee Bean for a breakfast before he goes to work. We have not done the noodle breakfast in a while now, or the economical bee hoon. That one isn't the healthiest thing to eat, but sometimes you just need some comforting, albeit a little trashy and greasy.

On Sundays, we take our first meal of the day a little more serious. We will talk about what to eat the day or the week before. Most times, it is to motivate us to get up a little earlier on Sundays so the day will last that little bit longer for us. It is the only day in the week that we indulge in a full English breakfast fry up. We used to do it once or twice at home, but it was a little too greasy to clean up after that. Besides, it is nice to be out, especially when it is nice and sunny on a Sunday morning. There are few things in life that is as enjoyable as such.



We were in District 10 this week. The place is in the old Monk's Hill Secondary School campus where The Husband was a student. I suggested visiting the campus one night while we were doing one of our random cruise-abouts. He got pretty excited when we got there, pointing out his classrooms, and the places to me. The restaurant was where the canteen was, so, wouldn't it be nice to be able to dine in there once again? I had the same feeling when I visited Old School in Mt Sophia last year. I was pointing out my classrooms, pointing out where the stuff were and where my friends and I would be standing and chatting and the nonsense we were up to. It certainly brings back a lot of nice memories. After so many years, we tend to remember the good things and forget the not so good ones.
