It’s December, and cold, and the sun is out, and the kids are barefoot in the backyard. Somehow it’s lunchtime already and I haven’t had breakfast. It doesn’t matter if it’s my morning or midday meal because it will be the same thing regardless. The same old same old cheese toast but with a fresh and crisp locale.
Bread toasted and topped with melty cheese. Extra old cheddar is my go-to. Topped again with cherry tomatoes and sprinkled with black pepper. Served today with a cup of extra strong coffee and a liberal dose of December sunshine.

Why am I so hungry!!? Oh. Right. It’s 2 o’clock and I haven’t had lunch yet. Oh. Wait. I haven’t had breakfast yet either. Let’s fix both problems with breakfast for lunch for breakfast. And maybe dinner as well depending on how much work I try to get done. Homemade nutty granola sprinkled on yogurt. Served with coffee so strong your spoon will stand up, sweetened with maple syrup and lightened with cream.
For homemade granola put 8 cups of your favourite nuts, seeds, grains and spice in a large bowl. In a saucepan combine maple syrup, butter and vanilla (about 2 cups total) and warm it up. Pour over dry ingredients, mix, and bake at 350 until golden. Add dried fruit while it’s cooling. And don’t forget to eat breakfast.
