I know what you mean. I have never been a milk and cereal type, either. For some reason I prefer lunch for breakfast, breakfast for dinner, and salad for lunch
Ah, now the explanation comes out. They always do, these little clues to an alien's identity. Like that scene where the movie camera catches the alien putting on a glove-like device that hides the fact that he has only three fingers and they're all exactly the same length.

Perfectly shaped for probing curmudgeons, I'm sure.
Collar is perfect.I won't hear anything different.
You should plug your ears.
What?!
How do you know about this alien ritual of..
Oh, you're talking to Elle.
Ah.
Ahem
Nevermind!
Thanks.
The great thing about soup is its easier for non breakfast people to come to terms with too. When 'learning' to cope with breakfast I had miso or bouillon a fair bit, not cooking, but making sure I had 'something' in the morning. Although its nice to have fruit and treats like pancakes or French toast I never got the idea of chocolate cereal as a great morning thing: it seems to be a poor way to set taste buds to me. I love my porridge, or eggs or fish. I like yoghurt or a little cheese and fruit. But its taken me decades to learn to eat breakfast. And light soups were a great step on the path there. I should do that more again.
Pickling is very, very easy. You can get away with quick pickles, so you don't have to actually can/jar things. Just make a brine and cover the veggies in a jar (without the whole sterilization bit) and put them in the fridge to pickle. The difference between pickles and quick pickles is that quick pickles only last 2 to 3 weeks instead of months or years. Here is a pretty typical recipe: Quick Pickles. The brine is extremely versatile, change up the flavour profile however you like. Don't forget to make it spicy
thanks for the link. I'm planning to make some miso brined pickles and some vinegar/salt pickles as well. As for the one veggie thing, that's how I cook. Sometimes I only use half a veggie depending on what I'm making.As to the soup, it's any kind of broth with any kind of left over meat, shredded, with any kind of veggie, and a hard boiled egg added into the bowl when served. I also add either rice or noodles quite often, though I can't remember if that was part of the original recipe. I think rice was. I too it with green onions sometimes. As Elle says, soup is a great way to get your system kick started in the morning, but gently, when you want something subtle. The thing about this recipe is that it really keeps you going for hours and hours. It's just the right combination of carbs and protein and fat that you can keep going pretty strong on it without feeling too full. If you want, I'll see if I can dig up the original recipe sometime and post it
If we could afford to have it more I would eat natto a lot.

I'm pretty excited about the sanma (Pacific Saury) we picked up. I want to make bone crackers after we've eaten them.
What the heck are bone crackers?
They sound like fable monsters
Ok, and while I'm at it. Natto?
That link was a good break down and recipe. The sanma will make slightly different bone crackers.
Bone crackers are bone crackers.
As for natto, it's fermented soy beans. At first, I wasn't quite a fan. But it's completely grown on me and I crave the taste and texture now.
You think we should eat G?
You'll be relieved to know G and I both make passable
