I have a class, Cereal, that Foreign Keys off to another class, Groceries. I want to add an attribute, cereal_name, to the Groceries class by accessing the attribute, name, in the Cereal class. Any Ideas?

The reverse relation is automatically added. You can access all of the cereal pointing to the Groceries model using grocery.cereal_set See following relationships backward docs.
