My Breakfast Dairy

25th Oct 2024

Breakfast is a meal I have been strictly advised not to skip, no matter what. Growing up, my grandma never let anyone leave the house without a meal. Back then, it never used to be fancy, not even until 2021. From 2021, breakfast has become our WE time as a couple. After our not-so-little one leaves for school, we decide to explore options, be it cooking at home, ordering, or eating out breakfast has now become a special meal for us. There is no fixed pattern we follow, but twice a week I do not cook breakfast. This ritual has helped us explore each other's choices better. We both are not fussy or picky eaters, we are ready to experiment, but that comes with a basic term of the place being hygienic. We had breakfast at a roadside stall run by a family to gourmet places in between my X-ray appointments, that is the range of our experiments!
I started mentoring school children in creative writing a year and a half ago. So, on the days I have classes, on my way back home, I go alone to the place of my choice, order food of my choice, and have it all alone. It has been such a liberating feeling; It left me feeling empowered for the first time after I embraced motherhood. I know this would sound like a very silly thing to do, but it has served as the cheapest therapy for me! Hence, I go on solo breakfast dates whenever I feel like it. So, if next time you find me chilling at any cafe, don't be surprised, instead join me!



I have been advocating solo breakfast dates by posting pictures from my solo adventures on Instagram stories, my followers first found it weird. But a couple of them tried it and thanked me! So you should try it too if you haven't already.
Never skip or miss breakfast. Happy eating!
