Rice cake and peanut butter and a couple of clementines.
Up early to make egg bake for my Valentine. This one layered ham, diced potatoes, pepper/onion mix, spinach, with egg mixture poured over, topped with cheddar. A second 8x8 pan had cubed bread instead of potato. Almond croissants baked earlier this week will be a sweet treat for mid-morning coffee.

Breakfast this morning was a couple of clementines and scrambled eggs with Marie Sharpe’s hot sauce.
Avocado? Cucumber? Nopales? Lime sorbet?
I had breakfast today for the first time in… I dunno how long. Couple of years, maybe.
I wanted to finish the last of the wheat I’d milled yesterday so I made my wife whole wheat & chia seed pancakes. Her nearly always breakfast is yog with chia seeds.
They tasted good but didn’t get as much lift as I wanted, because I used half baking powder and half soda, then absent mindedly decided to acidify the milk-cream mixture so I lost a lot of leavening power as soon as I stirred it together.
Still, they were good and the chia seeds provided a nice bit of crispiness in each bite.
I really need to get a new griddle; CI preferably. These were cooked on a no-longer-nonstick Calphalon underweight aluminum griddle.
Smoked salmon, cream cheese with finely minced scallion and capers, black pepper, warmed bialy…ummm!
If I hadn’t slept late and wasn’t going out for lunch, this would be my breakfast choice today!
And those home-baked bialys ![]()
I can attest to the fact that it was delicious!![]()
And there’s always tomorrow!
If ever you want to save some money, you can do these at home for cheaper. There is a time when I had a child he used to like them for breakfast so I would buy the Pillsberry grands biscuits as well as Jimmy Dean bulk pork sausage by the pound. I would hand shape 8 patties and fry them and bake the biscuits and split them then I’d assemble and freeze and have a freezer bag always where the kid could just pull one out and microwave it in a damp paper towel. the 1 pound of meat and a can of biscuits would make eight not too big sandwiches that were perfect for his breakfast.
Crepe trifecta …raspberry, peach, plum jam; a slick of homemade ricotta on each crepe prior to the jam. Raspberries and Greek yogurt for some extra goodness.
