Breakfast: Cheating at 7am
The picture really says it all. You know of my love affair with Nutella. But did you also know that it is insanely healthy? Ok, maybe not for those of us who have stopped growing. But for little ones, a few tablespoons of Nutella packs a nutritional punch. That is good news because Pops (as in child #4) is nowhere near the weight chart. We take him in for routine weight checks (his doctor is worried) and whenever we succeed, we chalk it up to Pops' daily allowance of Nutella. For breakfast in a hurry, I shmear nutella on an eggo waffle, then add fresh strawberries. The kiddies love it, and I love watching them eat it.

Ooooh, thanks for the great tip! I am gonna try this one for my little guy who has a hard time growing. I say that now, but the problem is that the rest of us (meaning me) would want to eat it too! I am trying to shrink, not grow!
Amen, Becky. The other day I did something really horrible. I dipped a spoon in Peanut Butter, and THEN Nutella. And instead of handing it to Pops, I ate it myself...while he watched. What kind of mother am I?
Shmear, that MUST be a technical term for sure!
Sadly, I do not keep the lauded Nutella in my house for fear of personal devouring...am I depriving Theo of future foodie cravings or just nutritional advantage?
That picture of Peter is a delight! Have you ever made hot chocolate with Nutella? Especially if you get the kind mixed with white it's wonderful!
Weird, he almost looks like Mikk in that picture! I can't wait to squeeze those cute, little, skinny legs of his.
