Hopefully you didn’t miss out on all of the fun of our very spooky Mommy Reality challenge post this last Friday wherein Celeste has challenged us Moms to share what we really eat for breakfast.
Celeste shared she eats noodles for breakfast.
I think it probably looks more like this, doesn’t it Celeste?
Anyway, let me show you what breakfast looks like around the JENerally Informed house.
It looks like this.
And a lot like this……
Just kidding, remember this little tweet from a while back?
Yes indeed I did catch my oven on fire while making a birthday cake for my daughter Samantha. It takes some serious skills to do that, save the cake and not burn down the house I tell you.
So all domesticity aside, here is my mommy reality for breakfast, well at least what happened today…
Plus a few of these on the side.
Cue the music! Feel free to dance along while you eat your breakfast, oh and you’re welcome.
It’s your turn! Come share what you really eat for breakfast.
Stay Happy! Stay Informed!
Love,
Jen

Hell yes to the Poptarts and the Peanut Butter Cups, too. Trust me have been eating my fair share since Halloween now and if they just so happen to find their way into breakfast the more the merrier here, too :)

Haha, thanks Janine! I think Peanut Butter Cups are one of the most perfect foods ever created, they make every meal better :)

We had yogurt this morning. Usually it’s cereal, although lately Eggo’s and bagels have been tempting the kids out of bed. Mind you, I don’t prepare any of this. The kids do it themselves (and help each other out) thank goodness!

My kids sit like slugs on the couch, unless I prod them along they would totally bypass breakfast and show up to school in their jammies. I need to work on some incentives to get them moving, maybe Eggos are the trick!

Pop-tarts and peanut butter cups = perfection!
I had a cheese stick that I forgot to put in my daughter’s lunch box. And some granola. Then that wasn’t enough so I had a leftover pancake too!

Yup, all good things to have for breakfast, now it would have been even better with an added peanut butter cup or two! I saw a chart this morning about how many sit-ups, crunches etc. you would have to do in order to counteract the Halloween candy you ingest. Wow, what a buzzkill, isn’t running around after kids and animals enough for a little chocolate reward or two or maybe three a day?
Haha. I love this! It gives me hope that I can be a good mom even in my imperfection! ;-)

Oh I am the poster “mom” for imperfection, but being perfect wouldn’t be as much fun :)
Jen recently posted…Mommy Reality #22: What’s For Breakfast Mom?
no pop tarts!! lol!

Not the healthiest choice for sure, but it was quick :)
Jen recently posted…Mommy Reality #22: What’s For Breakfast Mom?
In my head breakfast is a perfectly healthy balanced meal every day…but that’s just in my head!
Julie @ Girl on the Move recently posted…Be Inspired: Lexi
I know it should be so easy right and yet I just can’t get that meal balanced!
Jen recently posted…Mommy Reality #22: What’s For Breakfast Mom?
I want to eat breakfast at your house! Pop tarts and peanut butter cups FOR THE WIN!! Even a kitchen fire would not deter me from that breakfast of champions! I like your style! –Lisa
The Dose of Reality recently posted…Forget #30 Days Of Gratitude, We’re Doing #29 Days Of Complaining
Haha, I think this should definitely be the new breakfast of champions!
Jen recently posted…Mommy Reality #22: What’s For Breakfast Mom?
We LOVE Pop Tarts!
We mostly just stick to cereal for breakfast.
I’ll have cookies though.
Amber recently posted…Tom Leaves. Lice Arrives.
I concur, cookies would totally surpass pop tarts in my book!
Jen recently posted…Mommy Reality #22: What’s For Breakfast Mom?
Oh no! Can’t believe that happened, but that is something that would totally happen in my life! Breakfast is always tough in my house. I had dreams of cooking nice breakfast options everyday, but sleep always wins out! ha ha Great post!
Michelle recently posted…Our First Halloween with a Toddler
In my experience I have found that trying to communicate with children in the morning is like trying to talk to zombies. My efforts to make nice breakfasts tend to fail as I watch them slump over asleep in their food face first.
Jen recently posted…Mommy Reality #22: What’s For Breakfast Mom?
Okay… only you can get me to admit that I sneezed up a noodle once. Peanut Butter cups for breakfast for the win! I had no idea timing this theme with Halloween would be so ideal!
Celeste @Leapfrog and Lipgloss recently posted…Mommy Reality Challenge 22 and Link Up
See I knew it! Candy for breakfast is always a win in my book. I just have to sneak it so that my kids don’t see me doing it!
Jen recently posted…Mommy Reality #22: What’s For Breakfast Mom?
Gotta love the Pop Tarts but I usually eat those as a midnight snack and not for breakfast! ( ; However the peanut butter cups just might be added to the Wednesday menu at my house…
I died laughing when I watched the video of the babies with pasta as I totally envisioned Celeste looking more like that.

Isn’t that video a hoot! I love the in and out the nose noodles ones :)

I mix oats with plain, fat free yoghurt and forest berries. And wash it down with a coffee so strong you could stand your spoon in it!

Barefoot Mahala recently posted…What Am I?
Forest berries, that is awesome! All we have around here is cactus fruit and that has to be cooked to death and have sugar added to even taste at all!
Jen recently posted…Pinterest Challenge: Pumpkin Facial Mask
Hilarious! Oh Jen… you make me laugh.
I’m afraid to link up because everyone will HATE me if I shared my mommy breakfast. I eat big and WELL for breakfast. I get up half an hour earlier so I can do so.
Thanks for sharing.
xoxo
Jennifer | The Deliberate Mom recently posted…The Beginning of NaNoWriMo
All right it’s all settled. I’m coming to your house tomorrow for breakfast!!
Jen recently posted…Pinterest Challenge: Pumpkin Facial Mask
LOL – I’m waiting for your arrival!
Thanks for sharing and linking up to the #SHINEbloghop.
Wishing you a lovely week.

Jennifer | The Deliberate Mom recently posted…What’s Your Story?
Hi Jen, I am really not sure what to make of the iced cracker things…The icing looks nice, but the cracker looks like polystyrene! I like the look of the chocolate cup cakes though, not sure I would have them for breakfast though…Sugar rush like no other, I expect…
My breakfast is pretty unexciting most days, but on a Friday anything can happen. Doughnuts, pizza or anything else I fancy I will have on a Friday..So I will take a shot of Fridays breakfast and link up with the #MommyReality…As I don’t think a shot of two Weetabix and a banana or a bowl of porridge is that exciting….I feel like a total let down!
Debbie recently posted…Pleased…
Can’t wait to see what you link up :)
That particular night I had slept about 2 hours and since I don’t drink coffee I figured a little sugar rush would help me make it through getting the children out the door.
Jen recently posted…Pinterest Challenge: Pumpkin Facial Mask
How on earth can a Mum of four not drink coffee? Superhuman abilities maybe? I never drank coffee before having children, but since having the little darlings I like to start my day with a large black coffee. In fact that is the only way I’ll start my day…
Debbie recently posted…Mommy Reality #22 – Mummy Breakfast
Haha! You know it my super hero status is on a need to know basis only, because if I told you who I really was well then I would have to knock you off……
Jen recently posted…Wordless Wednesday Link-up
Love your pictures, Jen! I laughed all the way down through them. I have been going crazy with Halloween candy and lattes for breakfast lately. Halloween is not a good time of year for me :). I just can’t stop. Every year I say I’m going to get rid of it all 2-3 days after Halloween. Never happens…
Candace recently posted…Choosing Thankfulness
Oh my gosh me too! I think I need someone to come and forcibly remove the candy from my house!!
