THEY'RE GREAT !! EVEN IN KOREA
One of my grandmothers loved Wheaties. I remember the Bob Richards' boxes. I didn't know who he was till years later, but he seemed to be on the boxes for ages. My other grandmother was a lover of Quaker Oats. That guy on their box hasn't changed in half a century.
I still like both breakfast entrees. Along with an egg McMuffin--the second best sandwich ever invented. (The hamburger is number one and the hot dog three.)
Of course, bacon and eggs and buttered toast and orange juice and coffee are welcomed sites around the breakfast table. And actually, I'm drinking a small glass of clementine juice right now. Clementines are an offshoot of tangerines. They're not fresh squeezed, but hey.
Still, Frosted Flakes are number 1 with me. Caroline eats some healthy cereal from Trader Joes or Wild Oats, but I'll stick to Keloggs for the taste. Don't forget the toys. She never gets a toy with her bran and wheat germ stuff.
Frosted Flakes started having Chicken Little figures. Three boxes netted three figures--all the same. Having three grandchildren, I preferred to have three different ones, but no luck. Before I could eat enough cereal to acquire more figures, they switched to Ice Age II. Six different figures this time. They must have run longer or I ate more, because I accumulated 5 figures. All different. Wow! Talk about Deal or No Deal. But wouldn' t you know it, they switched promotions again, so I couldn't go for the double trifecta.
Cars is now the movie and I got my first one today. I mean I got my first one for the grandkids today. Something called Lightning McQueen. It looks like a good one, since he's featured on the front side of the box. Only 5 more and I'll have the complete set. I want the police car next.
I mean for my grandchildren, of course. That McQueen car does take curves pretty well, though. At least around the cereal bowl.
