Oh this all sounds so good--I'm starving (thus reinforcing the claim that when I’m on Barbelith I am often hungry…). About all I've for breakfast food is cold cereal or hot oats--hmm...

Since I'm Canadian and not American I can't speak for "the Yanks," but I for one am on the "ine" breakfast of champions: caffeine & nicotine.

Oh yes, the "ine"s rock.

Grant: Just lift the glass out of a scanner or xerox machine, wrap the bread in tin foil, and run a few copies. About 20 for a light brown, 50 for dry, dark toast.

Were you just being flippant or does that actually work? Cos I may have to try that one of the many nights I get fucked off with the photocopiers at work while simultaneously being hungry. PLEASE tell me it's true. (Only if it is, mind. I don't wanna die just yet.)

Oh, I'd also add fluoxetine to the rocking "ines". And depending on how the previous night went, codeine.

fluoxetine? is that another name for Turkish toast? (God, there's so much of this thread I can't understand. It's only about breakfasts... surely it shouldn't be above my head?)

1 pint of water followed by 1 glass of whatever juice I have in the fridge at the time.

Then it's onto the sustenance which consists of one coffe the consistency of sugared road tar and some toast with newly rediscovered Marmite. The bread fluctuates between granary and carribean loaf from Blessed Bakery (accept no substututes).

Sustenance is accompanied by rapid scanning of newsfeeds during the week and cartoons atthe weekend.

It's then in the shower, get dressed and out the door so that I can reach town in time for my next coffee.

This is usually acheived before most of you have the faintest inkling that the day has started.

"still haven't tried beer for breakfast but there's always tomorrow..."

Ah, ya' gotta' do this at least once. You gotta' get outta' bed and start humming songs by The Doors to yourself--and you need to be certain there's a beer in the fridge. Then, as you get into the spirit of old dead Jim, ya' make your way over to the fridge, and, as you yank the door open you belt out,

"I got up this morning and I got myself a beer!"

Then ya' grab the beer, crack it, and have a big swig: voila, instant “I’m a crazy rock star” start to your day.

Always liked the Blue Oyster Cult versoin/s of that song. They genrally include a long, rambling explanation of how, for example, the singer popped out to the offie last night, and bought some beer, and took the beer back to the hotel, and got a big bucket of ice, and put the beer in the bucket, and then went to bed, and then D'YOU KNOW WHAT HE DID IN THE MORNING?

Smoothie maker novelty still not worn off, so a glass of whatever blended concoction's on tap. This morning, blended strawberries, raspberries, nectaries and bananas in apple and cranberry juice. Mmmm...


about three weeks ago i got one of those...


and dan, you night be interested to know that it is a pice of piss to clean. comes apart into lotsa bits, but even if you just blend it half full of water, it's clean enough for you to go to work.

alcoholic smoothies, much?
are you a fan of a white russian, ganesh?
my friend recommended the recipe to me, but try making a white russian with ice cream in the blender.

and then try it with rum instead of vodka.


DUDE.

Oooh. Okay, I'll grab one with the next pay cheque.

It will follow, however, that I will become a complete lush. Starting each working day with a white Russian, or some smoothie-mojito-thing or something. And deluding myself that the fruit juice is good for me.
