I love cereal

No, really. I do. In fact, my whole family loves cereal.

If you won't tell, I'll share a little secret with you.

Promise?

Ok, then.

Sometimes we even eat cereal for dinner.

Go ahead and judge. But there are times when there is nothing better than a bowl of Cookie Crisp or Golden Grahams.

Thanks to Mom Bloggers Club, General Mills sent me a box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch this week. It arrived on Thursday and it's now gone, if that tells you how much we liked it.

Recent studies show that 75% of kids are not getting the recommended daily intake of calcium and vitamin D. General Mills is trying to help. Did you know that their Big Kid cereals offer a good amount of both in each serving? They do! They each also have less than 12 grams of sugar and at least 8g of whole grains in each serving.

Check out their new site, Grow Up Strong for more information on which are Big Kid cereals and the nutritional information for each one. You can also find great coupons for the next time you have a hankering for Cookie Crisp. Mmmm, Cookie Crisp. I think I have some calling me from the pantry.

I love cereal for dinner. For some reason my hubby doesn't think that cereal is enough of a meal to be considered dinner but when he is gone on business you bet I eat cereal for dinner every night.
