Breakfast of Champions
So Carter and I are at Starbucks one recent morning and he says he'd like a white hot chocolate.
Me: Ok, but how about if you have a little something that's reasonably healthy, too?
Carter: Like what? Why?
Me: Well, I just like you to start off your day with something resembling a healthy breakfast. How about a breakfast sandwich?
Carter: Right. Mom, what do you have for breakfast each and every morning?
I started to come back at him but was at a loss for words, since my standard breakfast for years now has been a nonfat hot chocolate, light on the chocolate. Twenty grams of protein, nonfat, only about 250 calories and very filling.
So I just stood there. Like an idiot.
Carter: Right. I'll stick with the white hot chocolate, then, ok?
