Breakfast

Breakfast is the most important part of a day's meal. There are a variety of breakfasts that can be cooked based on the degree of difficulty, time consumption  in preparation, etc. The list came into existence due to a Staturday night incident. Shri said that he didnt want to eat Dosa the following week as he had already eaten it in the previous week (there would have been a 15 days gap if I had made dosa the next week). I was terribly upset and took it as a challenge, without letting him know, to feed him different things for breakfast everyday.

So for the month of March 2010, everyday started with a different breakfast that hadn't been cooked in that month. Being a foodie that he is, I was expecting that he would atleast appreciate what was being done. On the 22nd or 23rd of the month, when I asked Shri, if he had noticed anything different, his response was that he was getting to eat something New everyday. From the next day onwards, he started challenging that the breakfast was repeated; all in vain. He couldn't challenge my memory. So on the 1st of April, he had tasted 32 different breakfasts with another 15 more from the list still to go. Various reasons like visit to Udupi, my mom's stay for 2 months broke the chain.

When I was discussing this with my friends, I got to add more to the list. This is just the list of Possible Breakfast preparation.
