On the way out of THE Big City this morning, heading back to Cowboyville Arizona, my Gal Pal and I stopped at a lovely Bakery and had breakfast Sandwiches, MMM! They make their own Croissants

 

[Windigo]

Yoghurt with grape syrup, grapes, a fresh date in slices and pistachio nuts.

This is what happens when you know the waffle batter is too thin, but you’re too lazy to get the flour and sugar back out.

Light and crispy…yeah…I meant to do that…

Hubby's breakfast: American style biscuits with sausage gravy and "poached" eggs (I cooked his eggs in the gravy). Fresh sage, garlic, and ground black pepper seasoning.

I would love to see the date on that box. I mean, sometimes they are about 5 years out from production date. I am not knocking them by any means. I was a sucker for twinkies when I was a kid. I think it was at a Texas state fair someone deep fried twinkies? And Snickers candy bars? Anyway. I remember some pecan cinnamon rolls that were either Little Debbie or Hostess I think...do you remember those? I liked those a lot, too.

Edited to add:
It was TastyKake. Or Little Debbie. I don't remember which one I liked, it's been over 45 years since I ate one.

I had pancrêkes (not a pancake and not a crêpe) with papaya and honey again. Yum.

One thing I don't understand: if the beans are on the toast, how does one dip the egg yolk? Is there an additional piece of toast on the side?

I don’t dip my toast in an egg like that, only in a soft-boiled egg.

Don't you have a lot of yolk go to waste without having anything to sop it up with?

Did you grow up like that or was it after being in the UK?

No, I nearly always have potatoes with a runny egg, and I like to bust the yolk and eat it with the potatoes. When I try to dip a bit of toast, it always has way too much butter on it and the yolk slides right off.

Growing up, I never ate runny eggs, because that’s not how my mom made them. She considers a runny egg raw and unsafe to eat (same as a rare steak or slightly chewy bacon).

When Mom fried eggs, your choice was an intact yolk, cooked just enough to hold its shape when cut with a fork, or (her preference) a broken yolk cooked through (sort of like a homemade version of the egg that goes on an egg McMuffin).

I started eating runny eggs when I was in the military, because no matter how you ordered your eggs, you got whatever the cook felt like making, and sometimes, that meant runny eggs.
