Cereal Mixin’s

I’m someone who likes to mix their cereals – I rarely eat JUST Corn Flakes or JUST Grape Nuts.  Rice Chex + Grape Nuts + Corn Flakes is one of my favorites.  Pretty much, I’ll combine any 2 or 3 of the following when I eat cereal:

• Grape Nuts / Grape Nuts Flakes
• Corn Flakes
• Rice Chex
• Cheerios
• Total
• Rice Krispies

I can’t mix in the sugary stuff – if I eat sugared cereals, I’ll eat those alone, but indulging in that kind of breakfast is rare for me.  Maybe Cereal Wednesday will have an episode of Cereal Mixin’ someday.

Texture in food is big for me – for example, I like potato chips in my mac-n-cheese just to make it crunchier.  I like hash browns in my breakfast tacos for the same reason. 

Maybe I’m getting better nutrition this way, by combining wheat, corn, rice or whatever the cereal base is.  

Have you ever tried mixing cereals?

Someone sent me Pepsistuff codes!

I can’t tell who it is from the email address, but someone sent me a batch of codes that I plan on entering in as soon as the site goes live.  Thanx, you-know-who-you-are!

As a reminder, you can send me YOUR unused PepsiStuff codes.

Having a bad day – LOLcats style

Someone sent me a “Having a Bad Day” email that had a lot of LOLcat-worthy photos but sans caption, gathered in such a way as to determine if you’ve had a bad day.  I liked it so I decided to share. 

Because I’m so thoughtful, I decided to share in the extended entry, below, so those of you who gag at the sight of cute cat/dog photos won’t sue me or send me your doctor bills.
