Breakfast or Bust

Some days Mom wakes up in a stern and austere mood. I soon realize that nothing I do for her today is going to go over well. 

If that wicked scowl didn’t send me the message of her mood, her tone of voice certainly did, leaving the hairs on the back of my neck standing on end. It seems she woke up from the curse of Maleficent, and if that were not enough, she projects the deepest commando man voice I ever heard. A bass voice that literally shakes me to my core. How could this earth-shattering voice possibly come out of this 5 foot 2 inch little woman's body? 

Breakfast is usually served by 10:00 AM. This particular day, the clock strikes 10:01 AM, I hear Mom snatch open her bedroom door and scurry toward the kitchen, where I am cooking and preparing her tray. Ignoring the obvious she says, "Am I going to have breakfast today?" with that all too familiar commando tone.
