Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It stands as a prelude of sorts for the day’s following meals, influences one’s tastes until the next day when breakfast would be served again. In that way, Noel thought, the mouth and stomach were like newborns---their first impressions of food began anew with breakfast. If breakfast went poorly, who could say how lunch and dinner would prevail?
Perhaps that was why Noel opted to treat Gilbert to waffles---gingerbread waffles, warm and malleable. The fruit that accompanied them (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries) were generously plump; fresh. ❛ My father doesn’t quite understand the importance of breakfast. ❜
A rant. A Noel rant. ❛ Ah, to each his own, I suppose. The syrup is to your left---be as frivolous with it as you please. ❜
