I'm the brunch kinda gal too.
I just can't take food when I wake up for maybe 3-4 hours later.
I owe this to my mother! Us kids had to be up, dressed and out the door by 530am, which meant that Mom insisted that we have breakfast at like 430-5am -

that didn't work for me! I begged to just have a piece of toast to take with me on the school bus, NOPE!
And then the stuff she gave us

cold leftover white rice drowning in cold milk and sugar

or what I come to find out now is Milk Toast

While I was growing up, milk was a big deal. Everyone made sure that we all got at least 3 servings a day - I think looking back as an adult, I'm lactose intolerant, that's why that much milk it wouldn't stay down.
There's was a time when milk was not available in Hawaii, so Mom got POWDERED MILK ___ ACK!!!

So today, I eat what I want, when I want, I don't care that my husband thinks that I'm weird and eat strange things for what he calls breakfast... it's a meal, period.
