Shirred eggs over crisped Serrano ham, in cream, a little thyme, topped with Parmesan. Couldn’t put down the fork in time to take a photo, sorry…
These are a special treat…chocolate croissants from Trader Joes. They arrive as small frozen pastries, then proof overnight for 9 hours during which period they blow up about 3X original size:
Then bake to a golden brown and serve hot with extra butter on top if you are me. Also available in almond and plain.
I should have taken a pic- Eggs benny with serious eats hollandaise, sautéed spinach with onions and garlic instead of ham on toast rounds. Bacon done in the oven on a flat cast iron skillet. Side dish of red grapes.
Road trip breakfast in the car, packed a basket at 6 a.m. San Diego bound.
Italian combo sandwich for the driver.
Tomato salad with shiso (David Chang vinaigrette) in the back seat for me.
A gift from our new neighbors … I let out a bit of a screamed a little when I
first opened the carton … 'twas just a feather
So darn good
I’m in Kuching (Malaysian Borneo) at the mo. Took part in a bamboo raft race an hour outside Kuching and a lovely family gave me some babur cha cha. This is a dessert made from coconut milk and purple yam. Also has tapioca balls and pieces of sweet potato.
Picked up a soursop at a local market. I love soursop drinks and ice cream, never had it as a fresh fruit though. One of my more unusual breakfasts.

We’re meeting friends from back home who are in town for 2 weeks at the Thaipark. The weather is fantastic for it. I foresee noodle soup, mango salad w/roast duck and perhaps a few new dishes to try out
Blueberries were downright cheap at the local grocery store, so it was blueberry cobbler for our Sunday feast. It’s one of my husband’s favorite blueberry preps. Should have added a bit more cornstarch, but it was tasty with a small scoop of vanilla Haagen Dazs on the side.
love plantains cooked different ways.
fried, rolled in brown sugar , skewered, then roasted over charcoal, wrapped in thin spring roll skin, perhaps macapuno between and pan fried, cooked in coconut milk!
Breakfast with Wimbledon called for biscuits (shortbread) and jam. Since the dogs were up at 4:00 a.m. there was plenty of time to bake. We made a quick shortbread and served it with honey peach bourbon jam I made last weekend. The jam has a touch of thyme in it too. It was delicious.
This guy could not keep his head up during breakfast. Gee, maybe sleep past 4.
Lovely!
lol … Eye spy
Those biscuits!!!
Re the early morning wake up calls … and being asleep before the humans have finished washing the dishes, I feel your pain. We recently moved into a house and in less than 2 weeks my domesticated cat has become nothing short of a wild animal … just crazy
pictured here after waking us at the crack of dawn, minutes after finishing her breakfast after a long fruitless night of indoor hunting, what I don’t know and don’t want to?
exhaustion
Simple fried egg over easy with a side of roasted red and yellow beet cubes
