.......to call DP a Disney Dad?

[BertrandRussell]

Children-(grown up and nearly grown up)- foraging for breakfast. "Lots of home made bread and jam" I say.

In comes DP "Breakfast? I hid a batch of pigs in blamkets in the fridge yesterday- and how about some fried up leftoverroast potatoes to go with them?"

Suddenly he's Dad of the Year!

What's wrong with him wanting to have a fun breakfast for a change on Boxing Day? It's annoying if you've made bread especially but maybe they could have a slice too? Lighten up and join in, make the most of it before your kids are proper adults and spending this time with their own families.

yabu [lighthearted] i'm being naughty and eating a furtive chocolate or six and i'm type 2 diabetic.... 'tis the time to do mad things and eat shed loads of stuff !

Well as he is so resourceful I would delegate all the cooking to him today.

He did cook a roast dinner yesterday and is doing beef wellingtons for 12 later......

Would pigs in blankets made into a sandwich with lovely home made bread be a suitable compromise?

Oh my God, that sounds immense.

Don't mind me, I'm just going to go and hunt out a frying pan...

Either your fridge is truly, truly massive, or your kids need to improve their foraging skills.

Bread and Jam is not a breakfast, so YWBU to suggest a snack.
