Will you have spaghetti for breakfast?

Early in the morning, we ran out of gas for the stove. So, I wasn't able to cook warm meals that my husband and kids can bring to work and school. We do have an electric stove but it's too heavy and too big to set up in the kitchen when you're doing the morning rush. I ended up opening a can of tuna so my daughter can have lunch in school. I made steamed rice with the help of a trusty rice cooker and prepared some cheese sandwiches. After dropping off my kids at school, I felt a pang of hunger. I realized I hadn't had a proper meal since last night. I skipped dinner because I didn't feel hungry. And there's just no time to eat breakfast while I was prepping my girls for school. So I ended up buying a plate of spaghetti at a neighborhood eatery. Noodles and pasta are common breakfast fare here in the Philippines. It may seem odd for other people, but here it's normal to have egg or rice noodles and spaghetti or macaroni first thing in the morning. I got spaghetti because it was the only food I could get at the eatery! It was filling but it was too salty for me. Some days you just gotta make do with whatever's there. * Image by PublicDomainPictures from Pixabay
