pistachio pudding pie
OH I TOTALLY remember Surge! It came out when I was in middle school and I remember going on a youth trip and my friends and I each got like 2-3 cans out of the vending machine. We were SO hyper that night! LOL!

- falafel.
- crepes w/ tons of fruit, usually strawberries and kiwis.

- tuna & hummus sandwiches.
1. fried bologna on white bread (my fav!)
2. grilled cheese & bologna made with velveeta cheese
3. hot dogs w/mayo
4. fried potatoes
5. potato chips ("Bell" brand)
#1-5 all still sound good to me..wish I could still eat that way!

#6 I remember because I hated this meal & spent many evenings alone at the table crying because my parents wouldn't let me get up until I ate some...& I couldn't get it down without gagging so I refused to eat it. I think it scarred me for life! LOL ;-)

My grandmother only ever has cheerios, special k, or rice krispies. She never bought the good, fun cereal. She always cooked a southern breakfast- eggs, grits, and maybe sausage or bacon. In fact, I went to her house this past weekend and all she had were stale Cheerios and Rice Krispies. I guess I'm lucky she even had cereal seeing as how she never eats it!
