Childhood Memories

I think some of my most fond childhood memories are having breakfast on a Saturday morning with my Grandfather and my mother.  My Mom made the BEST Cream of Wheat and I remember enjoying those Saturday mornings with her and my Grandfather, laughing about what happened during the week, planning school stuff for the next week, etc.  True to be told, she used to put a TON of both white and brown sugar in it, as well as heaping amounts of butter.  My Mom never really does anything small - it's either go huge (as in calories) or go home.  I can't fault her for it, though, because that Cream of Wheat was amazing :-).

Today I am sitting here, enjoying a bowl of Cream of Wheat (this time with a bit of "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" and a few teaspoons of Splenda), remembering times past, and having a big smile on my face :)

Happy Tuesday everyone!
