For no good reason at all, I'm trying to write the story of my morning in Lojban.  All was going well until I got to breakfast.  You see, I had bread and butter (or buttered bread, take your pick) and a doughnut, and I'm having trouble expressing "bread with butter, and a doughnut" without it sounding like I ate bread, butter, and a doughnut.  I tried using gunma (with internal sumti for bread and butter), but that just sounds long and horribly complicated, and also makes it hard to figure out just which terminators I need before I can start talking about the doughnut.  Any ideas on how to express "bread and butter" concisely?

Thanks,
