Steak & eggs with a slice of buttered toast. I haven't figured out yet
whether or not I want to scramble the eggs with some grated cheddar or
cook the eggs over medium simply seasoned with S&P.

Beverage: a tall glass of cold milk.

No coffee. I'm not a teenager living in the Seattle area.

Isn't it true that you couldn't find milk in your local supermarket? I
think I missed your detailed post on that.

Sounds good. I had Cream of Wheat, a piece of sour dough whole wheat
toast with honey, and a latte.

Cheap shot. Must you always pick on her constantly? It does not portray
you in such a good light.

As far as the steak and eggs... That's another worthless meal combo to
me, just like surf and turf. Why combine two delicious meals into one?
I know both are popular and I've tried both. Bad combos, to me. And just
to me too, since I'll get bitched at for stating my preferences here.
sheez.

G'day to all in RFC. :-D

What else does she have to occupy herself with. Think about it. It's what
self obsessed old biddies need do to try to look look clever

Watch though, she likes to give it out but she doesn't like to take it)

yes, we all know it is best to combine some delicious food with crap.

Pshaw. I thought it was funny, and it is even funnier because she did
not have to mention any names. Even you figured out who she was
referring to.

I used to think it was silly until I tried it one day. I told my wide
how good it was but, as much as she likes beef, she was hesitant. She
finally tried it about a year ago and loved it.

I've never had steak and eggs, but it doesn't appeal, either. Steak OR
eggs, but not both. And not steak for breakfast.

Then again, I had some wisdom teeth out on Friday, and I haven't
had solid food since Thursday. I'm getting mighty tired of the taste
of those chocolate-flavored, meal-replacement shakes. Pretty soon
I'll be ramming a cucumber through a blender, just so I can taste
something that isn't cheap chocolate flavor.

Um, because I had 6 oz of strip steak left and wanted steak & eggs for
breakfast. Hang up and go to McDonald's.

Whatever. I'd rather have steak or lobster, not both at the same time.
You're talking like bacon doesn't go with eggs. Nothing wring with a
nice tender steak & eggs.

I made coffee... it's a complicated task, but I managed... and I mixed
a copious amount of sugar and heavy cream into it. That was going to
be the extent of breakfast until my husband told me he was making
bacon & eggs and asked if I wanted some too. I'll eat breakfast as
long as somebody else does the cooking!

You can't eat oatmeal, cream of wheat, or soft cooked scrambled
eggs for a change? But I know what you mean about getting tired
of liquids after dental surgery.

Just toast for me. Is cool today. Will bake rolls later. Will be using up
the last of my bread for the toast.

Angela couldn't eat anything at all after hers for quite a few days. She had
so much swelling that she simply could not open her mouth enough even to get
soft food in or do anything even slightly resembling chewing. Later, it was
discovered that she suffered nerve damage from the shots she was given.
Don't know if that played into this or not. Mostly her calories came from
milkshakes but she couldn't even finish a small one of those. I think it was
about two weeks before she could get to soft foods.

I guess I was lucky. I do remember swelling and soreness but I don't recall
any trouble eating beyond the first day.

My DD had a couple of days drinking through a straw after wisdom teeth
removal, but I think it was to give the cuts time to heal. Aspirin
took care of any pain, if she needed it.

That is peculiar. I have had dental surgery and remember the
instructions saying to avoid the use of straws for several days because
it can loosen the blood clot.

What? I was told not to use a straw and so was Angela. Could dislodge the
blood clots. No aspirin either as it thins the blood. She was given
prescription stuff but it made her very ill.

If it's okay to chew, I don't see why a straw would be a problem. My
husband and I still have our wisdom teeth, so I'm not talking from
personal experience.

Well, several people, including myself, have told you you aren't
supposed to use a straw. It can cause the clot to dislodge. That can
lead to a dry socket. So... you can do a little online research and
confirm what we have told you or you can continue to live in denial
while your daughter risks some serious side effects.

My instructions were quite clear on the subject. NO STRAWS.
Something to do with a dreaded condition called dry socket.

Because the motion of sucking can dislodge the clot. No smoking or vaping
either.

Sucking a straw creates a partial vacuum or low pressure in the mouth.
That allows the internal pressure of the internal portions of your body
to expand. Things like blood vessels. On a smaller scale, same as
being in outer space where your internal organs could explode.

Yikes, that draws a picture. But I understand exactly what you're
saying. That would mess up an open wound in your mouth, for sure.

I had a dry socket after a wisdom tooth extraction. Not from using a
straw, but because I was smoking.

That was the most painful thing I have ever experienced. I sat up in
bed crying all night.

I believe it has something to do with the suction pulling the clot loose
that forms in the socket.

The smoking never bothered me, but I know the dry sockets are very painful.

I was not told not to smoke, I did and no problem, maybe just lucky.

I was told not to smoke. That was hard as I often smoked as many as 3 packs
per day. I do remember taking a few very weak puffs but this caused no
problem.

No I don't. She had it done years ago and she was fine.

I still don't understand why no straw, but it's okay to eat and drink.
