My mom and dad had eight kids to feed. Most of the time it was biscuits or cornbread. However, at least once a week we had “Store bought light bread”. Since we lived on a farm we always had an old milk cow. Therefore we almost always had “Bread and Milk. Toast the bread in the oven (no toasters back then) cut it into squares of about one-inch, sprinkle a little surar on it in a bowl and pour on the milk……..Wow, homemade cereal!!! By the was, for you young’uns that was before and during WWII.

My husband loves PB&J in hot dog buns. I like a banana (fits perfectly) with a bit of yogurt and a drizzle of caramel syrup for a breakfast banana split. Leftover hamburger buns make great sunrise sammies – scrambled eggs, cheese, ham or turkey.

We are newly addicted to bread cubes dipped in Hidden Valley Ranch dressing. Buns are quite easy to cut into cubes and enjoy this way. Much easier than trying to carve out bread cubes froma round bread bowl.
