What is it with cold frosty mornings? You think you ‘have’ to have porridge for breakfast! I dont particularily like porridge – as I dont really like milk, so when I do have it, it is disguised beneath honey or golden syrup and banana!
I think my dislike of milk comes from school-days, those pretty little glass bottles of milk, sitting in the crate waiting for break time, cream on the top and a little straw to poke through the silver foil lid. All sounded lovely, until you put your hand up at the end of the day, for the few ‘spare’ bottles of milk, that were still sitting in the crate, getting warm. Whatever possesed me to put up my hand to be chosen for that spare milk, I will never know. Maybe as a 5 year old, you felt special if you were chosen – a bit like getting a present!
Those presents often made me feel a bit sick and put me off drinking milk for life!
I do still like the thought of those little glass bottles though, and times gone by.
As for the frost, it looks pretty with the sun on it – will take some photographs for future painting reference as the morning winter skies are delicious! (unlike warm milk!)
