    The illustration on page 3 looks like Marlene and Ira have been looking at a lot of Saul Steinberg illustrations.

    My ideal diner breakfast is two eggs, over medium, with hash browns that are well done, dry rye or wheat toast (that I can put jam on) and some turkey bacon.

    My ideal home breakfast is as many family recipe pancakes (which is mostly Aunt Jemima) fried in butter as I can eat, served with real maple syrup and a glass of milk.

    It just now occurs to me that a bowl of cut strawberries on the side would be really good with both of those meals.

    When I was a kid, I ate Rice Crispies. I liked to read the cereal box and I sent in boxtops and one thin dime to join the Batman fan club. In the 60s, I switched to granola. I did it for the Revolution. In the 70s, I switched to muesli. And I ground my cofee beans. Lately, I’ve been on an oatmeal kick. With salt, not sugar. I am contemplating another breakfast shift. I’m considering challah French toast, thickly sliced, with orange and vanilla in the batter. Fresh raspberries and a sprig of mint. And cappuccino. With music. On the veranda. In springtime.

    last night I dreamt that I was looking for the perfect carton of eggs. I was in a supermarket, leaning into a walk-in refrigerator full of eggs. I would open cartons, one at a time, to find eggs that were leaking, broken, or see-through and pulsing. I was horrified. Does this answer both questions?
