Christmas Brekkie

Its alread midday Christmas Day here in Eastern Australia.
I was listening to the medieval religious music of Hildegard von Bingen this morning as I ate my Chrissy Breakfast of:

cold mango and cherry and passionfruit salad
with freshly ground flaxseed with a touch of cardamom

The cardamom is the secret of so many things dessert.

Tell us about your breakfast.

My daughter who cooks, upon learning that I had no special Christmas breakfast planned, made chocolate chip scones.

Yep, we've got dough rising in the fridge for sticky buns. It's a yeast dough heavy with butter, and the goo is butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and pecans. I can't wait, either.

Oatmeal--actual oats, not instant--and tea.

It's my favorite meal.

My husband always makes us Christmas breakfast...Gingerbread waffles with real maple syrup (mega-yum!), vegetarian sausage, coffee for us grownups and eggnog (non alcoholic, of course) for our wild child.

Its funny how the Cs have it for Christmas! I mean C for Christmas and C for coffee, cinnamon, cardamom, chocolate chip .....
Everyone had a C in their menu except for poor Peggioh!
Maybe Peggy might put a pinch of clove in her oatmeal?

Peggy checked the freezer twice, but was unable to find the cardamom or the cloves. She did, however, find TWO jars of cinnamon. :roll:

Cinnamon it will be.

Frosted flakes. :roll:

And I belatedly realised that having had breakfast meant I shouldn't play my new harmonica right away, hehe

Actually I didn't know Christmas breakfast was supposed to be a special one.

Edit - Frosted Flakes is Cereal - I didn't think I had to spell it out.

Well all I had was a small bowl of muesli with soy milk and a cup of tea. But I got up very late and Christmas dinner was only a couple of hours away.

Putting the "cup" in your post is cheating. The C has to be in one of the items that you consumed. Otherwise your breakfast is a failure. See?

For me a vast, steaming mug of Lyon's Original w/milk and sweetener.
