I don’t have this a lot but I am going to have bacon and scrambled eggs, with parley and bazil and some fresh tomato.

Poured milk on cornflakes, discovered milk wasn’t good, cornflakes and milk went down disposer. Breakfast = granola bar.

The usual - a bowl of Special K with 2%. I’ll lose these last 20 lbs. if it kills…somebody else.

I went to The Hungry Fox today and ordered a Vegan California Omelette.

And by Vegan California Omelette, I mean an omelette of **eggs** , with veggies (including avocado since it’s Californian), and a healthy serving of **cheese**. 🙂

With it came hash browns, and two heavily buttered pieces of wheat toast and a pumpkin spread/jelly.

I also washed it down with 2.5 cups of black coffee. No chocolate milk for me!

Usually it’s a handful of nuts or piece of string cheese with some fruit and loads of coffee. Today it was a toasted peanut butter sandwich (bread was cinnamon/raisin swirl) and some coffee. I got all wild and crazy.

Something I ‘never’ make: pancakes.

I’ll also make fried eggs, ‘medium-up’, and bacon.

During the week, it’s plain yogurt with mixed berries, walnuts, and honey. The frozen berries keep everything cold until I get to work - I’m not hungry when I leave the house at 7:45 a.m.

On the weekend it’s usually a bit more elaborate. Today we have some really strong coffee, and some toasted cranberry/walnut sourdough bread. This will likely be followed by the remains of the blueberry crisp I made last night.

The kid and I had to be in town most of the day yesterday, so we ended up having lunch at a steak house that we like. I ordered a ribeye steak and a baked sweet potato. This morning’s breakfast was the rest of that. Mmmmm. I love a good piece of beef in the morning!

Today it was chicken soup w/matzo balls. I love soup for breakfast.

Other things I enjoy for breakfast:  
banana bread  
oatmeal  
wheat chex  
leftover rice  
toast with peanut butter  
eggs benedict  
BLT  
chocolate cake  
McD’s sausage egg and cheese biscuit with a side of hash browns  
fettuccini alfredo  
big bowl of melon and berries

Just about anything really–I can’t think of anything I wouldn’t eat for breakfast.

But soup is the best.

A hardboiled egg (I made up a few this week) and 4 slices of Hickory Smoked Bacon. 4 cups of strong coffee with half and half. Working up an appetite for a late lunch out with friends at Gwennies which I will have King Crab!

</div>

Two eggs scrambled with diced onion, ham, Spanish chorizo sausage and salsa (blend of boiled tomatoes, serrano chilis, and a little salt). A little refried beans on the side, and two flour tortillas. And some coffee with milk. Actually a pretty quick breakfast to make, if you’ve already made the refried beans previously.

Yummy! Although I am annoyed that I have yet to have a decent flour tortilla from Trader Joe’s. I don’t know where that disconnect is coming from. The uncooked ones from Costco are pretty good.

a bit of bagel with my butter and honey, or a bowl of cheerios on the weekends.  
a quaker oats bar during the workweek.
