Smirking he set a plate before her, "Welcome back, Scully." 

Her first bite cartoonishly rounded her eyes.

"Mulder, this tastes just like my mom's!"

The Lord is My Shepherd A song of David.

1 The Lord is my shepherd. I have everything I need. 2 He gives me rest in green pastures. He leads me to calm water. 3 He gives me new strength. For the good of his name, he leads me on paths that are right. 4 Even if I walk through a very dark valley, I will not be afraid because you are with me. Your rod and your shepherd’s staff comfort me.

5 You prepare a meal for me in front of my enemies. You pour oil of blessing on my head. You give me more than I can hold. 6 Surely your goodness and love will be with me all my life. And I will live in the house of the Lord forever. — Psalm 23 | International Children’s Bible (ICB) The Holy Bible, International Children’s Bible® Copyright© 1986, 1988, 1999, 2015 by Tommy Nelson™, a division of Thomas Nelson.

The contents of a WWII breakfast ration box offer a glimpse into the resilience and resourcefulness of people living through one of the most challenging times in history.

Between 1939-1945, soldiers and civilians alike had to make do with carefully rationed provisions that were designed to provide essential nutrition while also being compact and easy to transport.

The breakfast ration box, typically issued to British soldiers, contained a variety of items that were intended to sustain them through the demanding days of wartime.

A typical breakfast box might include a portion of porridge oats, condensed milk, or sometimes powdered eggs — items that could be easily prepared with minimal resources.

The ration was designed not only to meet caloric needs but also to maintain the energy required for long hours on the front lines or in factory work.

Along with these staples, the box might also contain small amounts of sugar, tea, or coffee to give a sense of normalcy and comfort in an otherwise harsh environment.

Despite the hardships, these rations represented a form of survival and endurance, highlighting the ingenuity required to create functional meals in wartime.

In many ways, the humble breakfast box became a symbol of the unity and determination of a generation, bringing a moment of stability and nutrition to individuals who faced uncertainty every day.

The meals, while basic and often repetitive, were crucial in sustaining morale during a period where even the smallest comforts were hard to come by.
