sunday morning meat


toasted poppyseed bagel with herby unscrambled egg patty, topped with sauteed sausage and red pepper

sinfully good

with mandy away at a conference in edmonton, this morning i settled down to my favourite activity when the vegetarian/piscatarian leaves the house: eating meat

i combined two eggs with a couple tablespoons of milk and a dash of dried herbs, beat them until well combined and threw the mixture into a small buttered saucepan, which I covered with its lid. when the patty began to make impression of john hurt in alien, as a hot air bubble expanded from its underside, i gently flipped it over to cook on the other side. in the meantime i sauteed up some chopped breakfast sausages until cooked, then threw in some red pepper with the sausage bits to fry in their fat. i drained the sausage/red pepper mix on a kitchen towel, topped a toasted bagel with my then ready egg patty, and scattered the sausage/red pepper over top

it may not be pretty, but so simple, quick, and delicious

screw you, new year's resolutions

a new year, a new fry up
waistline and resolutions be damned

a fry up fit for the visiting family

a mound of eggs over easy, a hill of perogies fried with onion and mushroom, a mountain of bacon, and an escarpment of fried tomato, served with a towering spire of intensely flavourful homemade oatmeal molasses bread

i think we need a hike to burn off this breakfasty goodness

fave cryptic clue of the week:
they are barely visible to each other (7)

june 24's answer (wow, it's been a while): omega

the soundtrack for this sunday morning breakfast:

keb' mo'
keep it simple


happy new year to all, and to all a good breakfast
