  1. even though your not done yet. I think you could be a little bit more specific with the granola part. Maybe say what your going to put in it like nuts and raisins.

  2. What would you really eat for breakfast? I wouldn't eat granola and a banana but maybe if you explained what was in the food that we should be eating, we can understand why we should eat that!
