100 words | cuckoo for cocoa puffs.

When I was a kid, I was in love with cereal. It didn’t matter if it was lucky charms, kix, cheerios, even corn flakes (except grape nuts… that stuff is bleh). I even had a process: I’d pour half a bowl in some milk, let it sit for a while, then pour the rest of the bowl and mix. I guess I was fascinated with the fact that it could be both mushy and crunchy at the same time (yes... life was simpler back then). These days it’s just plain oatmeal that taste like cardboard… where has that magic gone??
