How NOT to make breakfast when you’re sick

This is the story of my Saturday morning, which is a perfect guide on how NOT to make breakfast when you’re sick (I have tonsillitis and a cold).

 

 

Firstly neither of us had done the dishes Friday night (we don’t keep many dishes on purpose, so we have to wash up a lot, but were lazy).

 

Then I nearly poured my hot water into my cereal bowl instead of my tea cup.

 

Ran to lounge room for tissue emergency. Washed hands.

 

Then I realised we had no milk and I was too lazy to clean the container and make more (we’ve been using powdered milk to save money for most of this year).

 

I wondered what we had that was quick food. Remembered we had cheese and crackers.

 

Sure, that’s a balanced breakfast.

 

Grabbed carrots out of the fridge by mistake.

 

Ran to lounge room for tissue emergency. Washed hands.

 

Only noticed they were carrots and not cheese when I started to put them onto the crackers.

 

Swore.

 

Ran to lounge room for tissue emergency. Washed hands.

 

Tried to find cheese.

 

Couldn’t work out where knife was.

 

Ran to lounge room for tissue emergency. Washed hands.

 

Cut the cheese.

 

Remembered I was making tea and took the teabag out of the cup.

 

Carried tea and cheese successfully into living room and collapsed on couch.

 

Thought – wow, that really shouldn’t have been hard.

 

What’s your go-to lazy food for when you’re sick and a bit dumb?
