Cold Weather, Hot Cereal

I know people around the world do different things for breakfast. We are having chilly mornings here in Kansas, and my mind turns to oatmeal.
No, I did not say I have mush brain, I said I want hot cereal for breakfast.
In the US we tend to eat sweetened hot grains for breakfast if it is cold. I know other countries tend to have savory dishes, often with rice meat and veggies at breakfast.
On a day hubby is not working I might make eggs, meat, potatoes and bread of some kind, like pancakes, biscuits or waffles.
Of course there are other things as well, but this morning I had whole grain oats, with milk and butter, topped with just a little very sweet granola. It was so good, not too sweet, but warm and yummy for my tummy.
I have had two cups of coffee already as well.
Are you having breakfast?

I dont eat breakfast, if I do I might eat something at around 11am.
I am up early, but just never have the taste for it.
Oats are a healthy meal for sure.

I hate oatmeal, but I do like cream of wheat for some reason.

It is probably a texture thing. I like them both.

Sometimes I have brunch for dinner. But I did have breakfast of Carnation Breakfast Essentials dark chocolate and a bowl of Honey Bunches of Oats. The only hot breakfast I do is Pop-Tarts, waffles and instant oatmeal like Cream Of Wheat with tea.

@GardenGerty Pretty much. I like to shake things up from the monotony of the same meal.

@GardenGerty Oh sorry if you lived here then you would more than likely eat that daily.We don't have cold morning for oatmeal on the islands so anytime is a good time for oatmeal here.

My favorite breakfast is stir fried noodles with sunny side up egg on top or some porridge, or hot and spicy noodle soup would make me happy under the cold weather.

I often have oatmeal for breakfast. I microwave it in water than add some milk. It seems to fill me up until lunch time and is especially good in cold weather. The other thing I like for breakfast is raw tomato slices on toast.
