That sounds delicious.

I'm craving a bagel and veg. garden cream cheese. I got some bagels at Safeway this morning and I think I will have that for lunch.
thank you! i'll see how it tastes shortly, when i make it.
 
So funny, me too - I was craving an asiago bagel from Panera and since it's a few doors down from the pet store I couldn't resist.
ooooooo!!! i love asiago cheese! 
   and now i'm craving a bialy from wegmans, the kind that has asiago in the center of it's top.

That's exactly the kind I got, with the asiago cheese in the center, golden brown color on the edges.

Scallops!  And a good antipasto salad and a calzone from a local Italian restaurant.  I'm not sure if i want a broccoli and cheese one or a spinnach.  Or a pepperoni.  The sauce they serve with it is AMAZING.

It's just hot cereal.. I personally hate it and prefer cocoa wheats. And cocoa wheats are not really good for you because I add milk, sugar and syrup to my bowl.
They're basically the same thing just chocolate flavored. I find plain cream of wheat to be bland.

I have never in my life eaten Cream of Wheat. Is it nutritional?
Yes. It's great when it's cold out. We ate it for breakfast often as kids. I always preferred Wheatena though. It seems much harder to find in stores these days. Anyone remember this stuff?

It's heartier than Cream of Wheat- nutty tasting and quite good. It's very good for you too. I think it's more nutritious than Cream of Wheat but I think that a lot of people prefer the taste of Cream of Wheat.

Great. I eat oatmeal frequently, but will try both of these. If I can find Wheatena. Seems very nutritious.

I really want some Asian shrimp chips / crackers
And what we call "wonton cookies" It's just a wonton wrapper filled with a mixture of sugar, sesame seeds, and shredded coconut and fried until golden brown. Sometimes Mom includes finely crushed up peanuts but I don't really care for the peanuts.

ohhhh!!! i love Asian shrimp chips! we had those sometimes when i was a kid.

i really need the iron that cream of wheat has in it, i have low blood iron.  i also love cream of wheat, usually adding a little sugar and whole milk to it. a single serving contains 45% of the recommended daily amount of iron for women. i usually have a double serving of it, so i get 90%.

today, i'm craving pancakes with real maple syrup!

They're really easy to make, too, assuming you have a local Asian grocery store that sells boxes of the chips. The box cost way too much online, even on Amazon.

Now I want some HK egg waffles, too.


Mom said she might buy some on the way to visit my great aunt today.

even though my family lived in a rural area, the little town where my mom shopped did have an Asian market -- actually a really good one. so we bought the boxes of the chips -- pretty multi-colored flat discs, there.

i'm craving that Hershey's chocolate cake with the whipped peanut butter frosting that @Winchester has mentioned -- only i'd replace the cocoa powder with carob powder.

I was raised on Cream of Wheat.  I love it but haven't had any in a long time.  

Pancakes... you're making me hungry.  Think I'm going to go make myself an Eggo waffle with a fried egg and maple syrup on top.
