differences.

Have you ever noticed [or thought about] how each family has

little differences about them?  There are 'little' things that make our

own families so different from others'.  The way you talk, the way you

tease or relate to each other, the way you work, the way you... eat?

Perfect example:

This morning my dad didn't have to go in to work early,

so we were cooking a big, homemade breakfast-

For us, this included some homemade

hash browns (dad's specialty), and bacon...

-

While we were cooking, Peli's friend who lives next door comes

over and tells us that he had cereal for breakfast.  I asked him what

his favorite cereal was (you know, expecting "Fruit Loops" or
"Cookie Crisp")...  He said, "Our cereal is always granola."

I said, "Oh, was it yummy?" and he excitedly replied,

"Oh yeah, and today I got extra dates in mine."

-

I'm 33.  I don't think I've ever eaten a date in my life.

Or had granola for breakfast.
