Make your mind up fella!

I stand by my comments in that thread... black pudding is acceptable (as is haggis in Scotland), tinned plum tomatoes not grilled tomatoes, and definitely No Chips!!

Nobody should be eating pudding for breakfast unless you're in the 1969 film Kes. A proper full English is two basted eggs, two pork sausages, two or three rashers of bacon, beans, a fried tomato, mushrooms, chips, a fried slice, two of toast and a mug of tea. End of. That's just how proper breakfasts are. They're immutable.

Maybe I am living in Kes-world c1969? ... Or am I a nobody?

My son won't wake up for another hour so I'm fantasizing about my brekki
A good quality cheese on toast with a nice slice of tomato and a bit of bacon...it's going to be yum...

I've not had breakfast at all recently. I read an article about intermittent fasting and realised that most of the time I had breakfast only out of habit. So now I have my dinner sometime between 7pm and 8pm, then have nothing to eat until lunch the next day. I don't feel hungry at all, and I've lost about 7lbs in as many weeks.

I had 3 beef tacos, just the way I like them; onions, garlic, sea salt, pepper, cilantro, chili, cumin, diced moo and condimented with chunky salsa and a line of salsa verde.

Can I come and live in your house Caretaker... I really love the sound of your breakfasts...years ago when I was single and worked in very late night bars for extra money I would buy a Donner Kebab or a Curry on the way home and have them for breakfast when I woke in the morning...bliss.
This morning was great... I hit on some really nice thick streaky bacon and made bacon sarnies in a 12 grain bread...a classic BLT with mustard...
Today was good...

I've been busy; made guacamole, fried the marinated chicken wings I didn't cook the other day then de-boned and diced them, finished in the skillet with cilantro and white onions. Took the sour cream out of the fridge and diced up some little cocktail bocconcini cheeses, got the salsas ready.... I'm just waiting for the pan to get hot so I can do the tortillas. The coffee is all gone so I think I'll have a Big Rock Traditional brown ale while I wait for that. I was thinking of kippers (far less work) but knowing the avocado wouldn't last, the chicken should be cooked, etc made it a matter of home economy. Also chicken tacos with guacamole is a nice celebratory sort of breakfast, just because Saturday. I opted not to make refried beans, too much.
