What was breakfast around your house like when you were in elementary school?

Did you usually have one particular thing, especially during the school year? I specify elementary school because at that age you usually don’t have much choice, because usually someone else makes it for you.

They didn’t serve breakfast at school in the 60’s. Mom usually fed us oatmeal every morning, sometimes pancakes. Pancakes were more of a summer break breakfast though.

She always fixed bacon and eggs for my dad, though. They had a signal…as he was getting ready to put on his tie he’d holler “Tie Time!” down the stairs. That was Mom’s cue to start his eggs (over easy.)
