Breakfast 2020!

[liuzhou]

Had a porkburger patty and trimmings leftover from last night's dinner, so breakfast burger!

A "Bombolone" from a coffee bar/bakery in Siena. It's basically just a donut, filled with pastry cream.

This is something worth breaking a diet for.

At the office today...Philly soft pretzel with spicy mustard, and fruit. To be healthy.

Yesterday:

Egg on toast and banana with honey and Grape-Nuts. 

 

Today was too many doughnuts.  We are taking care of this little girl for the next couple of days:

and her mommies brought us a box of doughnuts from our favorite place.  No pictures.  We seem to have misplaced the doughnuts.

Thank you for the Grape Nuts flashback. Have you used them as the crunch in other applications?

I have.  They are great on green salads and one time (many, many years ago) I even used them as a coating on oven "fried" chicken.  That was not a good idea.  Those things are crunchy enough with being baked for an additional 30 minutes😂.  But they are nice in quick breads, muffins, etc. I found that if you are going to apply heat, they need to be encased in something moist.

I just restocked my Grape Nuts, I use them to add crunch to yogurt and when I make overnight oats/muesli I sometimes add some just before eating so I get a little crunch with the mush.

Menemen. With feta, chives (eggs loves chives, tomatoes with cheese loves chives, and chives loves them back).

Store bought mild-sourdough, rye with wheat. Not my first choice of bread for this dish, but that's what we had on hand.

Local cantaloupe with some blackberries drizzled with some key lime yoghurt.

This was one of a local farms last of the season sweet petite fruits.  I let it sit out for a few days and the scent was intoxicating.  Finally cut it up for breakfast the last two days.

 

Getting chillier now - guess it's time for the oatmeal to come out.

I baked the Tourtiere on Sunday and we had leftover Tourtiere

with homemade fries for a late breakfast on Tuesday.

I flocked groats for breakfast yesterday.  But then I do so about once a week.

As the shepherd said to the sheep....."Let's get the flock out of here".

 

 

Sorry.....my grandfather's favorite line.

@Ann_T – your Tourtiere has haunted me here and on FB.  Seriously one of the most delicious looking things I’ve ever seen.

 

This morning:

“Biscuit Muffins” and a ham, cheese, and egg scramble.  I found a bag of the muffins in the freezer and had no memory of making them.  I looked at my website and nothing.  Finally, I searched “muffins” on my Kitchen Journal and found that they were from a mix someone had given us for Xmas.  We didn’t really care for them, but they dramatically improved by being frozen🤔.  Turns out that they are sold at Publix.  I’ll look for them next time we go there.

Not a gravy or meat pie girl - but one year a nerdy Canadian across the street - engineer/patent developer took me through his steps knowing I was a food person. It. was. really good. Not something I would make but I appreciated the intro

Grilled cheese and tomato sandwich. Burnt my mouth on that first bite.

So last night I was working on another sourdough (baking it often to try to improve it) and it was looking good, and in final proof, when I heard hair-raising screams outside and my youngest came through the front door yelling "dad come quick!"... So, daughter #2 fell off a little ledge, about 4 feet, into a big nasty patch of cactus, hitting it with sufficient force to drop her onto her bottom and then forward onto her arms... And of course in summer kids are never dressed appropriately to handle stuff like this.

 

I had to cut her clothes off and carry her back to the house, and it took 3 of us 2 hours to get the 'big' needles out. A long soak and ministrations from mom-meshugana and she's doing much better today, thankfully. Parts of her looked like she had fur they were so thick.

 

Needless to say, the sourdough proof was forgotten about, and it collapsed. But after the drama I rediscovered it and tossed it in the oven anyway, and it turned into a ridiculously good french toast in my wife's hands. She paired it with a spinach omelette, and blueberry syrup that the (formerly poky) daughter made a couple days ago.

Oh, NO!!!!  I am so sorry that happened to your daughter.  What a trooper to have to endure all of that.  If it helps at all please tell her how sorry I am (or not if it would embarrass her to know others know about it) and that I think she's had to be very brave and I admire her!

@pastameshugana Good save on your wife's watch with the French Toast. What we do as cooks (and parents) - adapt! My sister at age 4 did that in Yugoslavia (Tito time) - She has completely blocked it from her memory now at age 56. All relatives present, doctorates and engineering degrees up the wazoo but no medical peeps. Never a dull moment.

If that doesn't describe parenting then I don't know what does.

 

I always tell people "Who needs TV when you've got kids?"

[kayb]

Lord. I remember those days. After having had two of the three in ER getting stitches within a week's time, I told the remaining one, "Can you please go to bed and just stay there?"

 

Glad you salvaged both the kid and the bread.
