Then repeat until you are full.

Were there any other types of dishes in the box? One might use a saucer or some such smaller dish as a scooping tool.

I find that fingers work well once the milk has been drunk, and they also add a novel and even exotic flavor of faint saltiness.

You’re right, though, cereal is a challenge in such situations. But you seem to have conquered it pretty well. Keeping that brain agile, an’ all that.
