So........
The wife woke up this morning before me, (I swear she gets up at five) went into the living room to read, then promptly fell asleep again. I got up and moved around a bit, and was bored out of my mind. When she finally woke up, she asked me to make her French Toast. Being the progressive, wonderful man that I am, I said sure. As I'm sitting there making the stuff, it occurred to me that, though I'm good at making a variety of breakfast things, I just don't like breakfast. Or more accurately, I don't like breakfast in the morning.
I just can't seem to get excited about eating first thing in the morning. Bacon, eggs, omelets, sausages, the aforementioned French Toast; These are all things I love, just not first thing in the morning. The only thing I'm interested in at that time of day is coffee. Why is it, that all these wonderful things are morning foods? I'll agree that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, it should just happen around noon is all I'm saying.
Even most restaurants only offer their yummy goodness portions of the menu in the mornings. Why do they not want my money in the afternoon? It's a conspiracy. We as a people should demand that they offer breakfast at all hours of the day like Denny's, only not as crappy. (That's right. I said it. Denny's is crap. I cook better breakfast in my sleep.) So what if I want bacon and hash browns at 3 in the afternoon? To quote one of the great lost bards: "It's my prerogative!"
That is all.
It was damn good toast.
ReplyDeleteEggs in the morning most of the time make me want to yak. So I agree.
ReplyDeleteGosh, you are way more like me than I ever knew.
ReplyDeleteIt's kind of fun making these comments. Every time I do Google wants me to spell out some combination of letters they have provided. Some of them would make great words [like this one "tereces"] (oops, maybe they are already words that I just don't know.)
