Breakfast for Dinner…

This is something I started last year, as April 9th for me is “Breakfast for Dinner” day. So today I made scrambled eggs and toast, and had it for supper instead of breakfast.

There’s a story behind this.

I was a difficult kid growing up, and that’s a complete understatement. My boys were angels compared to how I was as a kid. And one of the biggest and most infamous fights we had back then was about breakfast for dinner. She made it one day and I refused to eat it, and it sparked a huge stand off and another big fight. Today I look back and see a snotty brat that was looking for any excuse to lash out at his parents.

It’s been almost two years since my mom passed away, and I started this last April… to make breakfast for supper on this day, which is my mother’s birthday. It’s something I plan to do every April 9th for the rest of my years.

Despite my lack of mobility from the stroke, I still managed to make the eggs, and the new tradition continues.

Happy birthday, Mom.
