Breakfast Saturday 11 February 2023

[irisblue]

Coffee first. I woke up dreaming about a mushroom Swiss burger, so I guess I'll figure out how to make that that.

[Emile]

1. Black coffee ☕ now, later fried eggs 🍳 and bacon 🥓.

[Native]

2. It's reading stuff like this OP that reminds me of my mother...

When she was living with us she always cooked dinner type foods for breakfast. I remember being pregnant and super sensitive to strong smells and waking at 6 a.m. to the smell of a shellfish meal being reheated in the microwave. You couldn't get her to eat breakfast foods unless it was dinner worthy, like a quiche with ham. A mushroom Swiss burger would have been an absolute breakfast treat for her.

3. Coffee, slice of cheese, cause It's 5am in Texas. Waiting

for daughter to pick me up, flying to New Orleans to see Andrea Boccelli.

[niyad]

4. How wonderful!

[moniss]

5. Now you've

got me thinking of a patty melt. That combination of burger, cheese, fried onions and buttered seeded rye toast is my quest of the day!! Maybe I'll go with mushrooms and raw onion. Yes that's the right one. Thank you to whoever bought me valentines.

[irisblue]

6. Onions on burgers are vital. Enjoy.

Patty Melts are good things

[LoveTheDU]

17. Cheeseburger in paradise!

Cheeseburger in paradise
Medium-rare with mustard'd be nice
Heaven on Earth with an onion slice
I'm just a cheeseburger in paradise
I like mine with lettuce and tomato
Heinz 57 and french fried potatoes
Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer
Well, good God almighty which way do I steer

7. Coffee with cream now

Spinach artichoke quiche and a mandarin orange later.

[lark]

13. Sounds very delicious!

Enjoy.

[Callalily]

8. Black coffee right now.

Still nursing a cold, so most likely just having some toast a little later.

But I too like supper for breakfast. Leftovers are the best!

9. Today, it was one of my wife's "light" German breakfasts

First, fresh-squeezed orange juice. A freshly baked (still warm!) baguette from the farmers market. They bring their own oven in a trailer right to the marketplace. Then homemade cherry marmalade and Austrian marillen (Wachau Valley apricots) marmalade and a French Géramont cheese for the bread. A celery-onion-yoghurt chicken salad, and hot Constant Comment tea (brought from the USA last month), sweetened with some of the Austrian apricot marmalade and some thick white honey from a local beekeeper.

There was more, but I had to pack and get to the Düsseldorf airport, where I am now, waiting for my flight to Switzerland, where I have to work today and tomorrow. There is no rest for the weary.

10. Be safe on your work days, best wishes for your woman, kids & grands

[DFW]

22. Thanks!! We have been scattered to the four winds of late

Hoping to get together on some continent or other before too long!

[lark]

14. Oh my, your wife sure has excellent taste, lucky you!

[DFW]

20. I find her taste in men to be questionable at best

But you’ll never hear any complaints from me! We’ve been together for almost 49 years now. I’m not going to point out her error in judgment at THIS point!

1974, when we were both 22:


2022, now at age 70:


Shhh! Don't anybody tell her! I want to keep her around for a few years more.

[lark]

21. She's smart, she knew to look for smarts and heart and brain and she found it in you!

I love a good love story and this qualifies.

[DFW]

23. The opinions are divided

I tend to agree with those who think I got the better part of the bargian, but like I said, I'm the last to complain.

She is somewhat nearsighted, so the obvious answer to "what does she see in him?" is, unless she puts her glasses on: nothing!

[no_hypocrisy]

11. Leftover steamed broccoli and brown rice with butter.

[Yonnie3]

12. Just black coffee so far

I had a wee hours snack of cheese and crackers. I'm almost sure that snack wasn't a dream.

[hippywife]

15. French toast & bacon. nt

[NJCher]

16. hibiscus tea

Omelette with spinach and grated Cheddar.

Yuca fries.

Later on, maybe an orange.

[Phentex]

18. Tuna sandwich. Gave my dogs the water from the can...

I created a bad situation. A while back, they hadn't finished their food so I dumped the tuna juice on top. Now, if they hear the tab go up on a can, they come a runnin'!

This morning I just added it with their breakfast to avoid any panic.

[Polly Hennessey]

19. I do the same thing with tuna juice. Dogs love it.
