There was no mistake about a hearty breakfast to these early settlers. The breakfast included ham and eggs, buckwheat cakes and sausage, fried mush dripping with maple syrup, country-fried potatoes, gingerbread hot from the oven, and always a Shoofly pie (and other kinds of pies), doughnuts or crullers, and just to round things off, some hot biscuit, sticky buns, or muffins or waffles, not to mention the fresh-churned butter and the array of jams and jellies.

Because of the day of milking the cows, feeding the chickens and other livestock, working the fields, baking, housework, cooking, and even barn raising, they were ready for the day’s activity.
