False experience, then?


I had some 'real' muesli recently, whilst working in Switzerland. It was the most depressing breakfast experience I have ever had.

I like the sort of sweet muesli we get in the UK (Alpen springs to mind) but honestly, this genuine Swiss stuff, I would feel guilty using it to line a gerbils cage..


we used to have a really good brand of muesli that I don't see anymore, it was sweet and full of ground nuts and some dried fruits, had a really good flavor and texture  ..but other muesli I've had does remind me of what one might feed their rodent



forget all that sawdust - just fry up a pound of bacon, then cook the eggs in the grease.

Tasty death!  Embarrassed


Actually, one of my favorite things to do is to par boil some cubed potatoes for about 3-5 minutes. Get a skillet going with a little oil and butter, pat the taters dry and fry them up in the skillet. When you boil first and then fry you get this crusty outer layer and fluffy innards. Once you've got them crispy, whisk some eggs and throw them right in the skillet with the taters and scramble them together.

Brings a tear of joy to my eye.Wink

damn that sounds good - you've inspired me E, I might try that this weekend.  Wink

^^ That does sound yummy. Sounds like it should go with bacon..or maybe include bacon!! Or maybe I'm just obsessed with bacon..

Luckily for me I'm eating breakfast right now, or else I'd be sooooo hungry it's not even funny...

E-Dub's breakfast sounds very nice...

My daughter's favorite: biscuits and gravy. It's so damn rich, however, that I try to limit it to once a month or every other month. I may have posted this in the Prog Chef's thread, but what the heck:

Fry up your favorite sausage (I like sage) in a dutch oven, remove and set aside. Next melt a stick of butter (depending on how much you want to make...I usually get by with a 1/2) and make a roux with equal parts flour until you get like a peanut butter consistency. Next, slowly add milk and whisk, but don't overdo it or else you'll have to thicken milk separately with flour and add. Slowly add the milk until you get it to the consistency you like and add the sausage back in. Pepper and salt and serve over biscuits.

My daughter (who is quite picky) just goes wild for this.

As for my tater scrambled eggs, it's one of my favorites. Hash browns or potatoes for breakfast just rocks anyway. Now that I have to cut back the carbs I have to watch it, but I do treat myself from time to time.

I can't do Biscuits and Gravy




Not in that it's gross, but in that it makes megross.

But good god am I hungry right now.

My roommate came back drunk ( ) and I'm tempted to wake him up and get him to walk with me to go get some milk and cereal.

He deserves it. There is absolutely no food in the dorm now because he thought it'd be a magnificent idea to take it all to some stupid party while I was gone.

I'm furious. I'd love to kick him a few times.

Anyway, point of this post was: I'm hungry.

Time to hit the dining hall. Your roommate does deserve a good thumpin', though.

I was through with roommates my sophomore year and since I was a non-traditional student (started college at 23) I had the option of having a room to myself. Well worth the extra few hundred bucks. Seriously, go hit the dining hall and THEN hit the roommate. LOL

Already done the dining hall

Now to hit the roommate. I like the guy fine (we've been friends for like 8 or 9 years), but goddamn does he make me mad sometimes.

i suppose, since he tolerates my music so much, I'll let this one slide...but if there's a next time...

Plus, I need to go buy milk and cereal at least before Richmond wakes up
