Sound like you are a brunch person Cynthia if you can't eat anything before 11:00. Me I am now absolutley starving now that I have seen your breakfast photos with sausages, etc....and it is 5:22 AM.

Wowour breakfast looks lovely! (OK, ignoring the fact that I don't eat eggs or sausage - well, it STILL looks lovely!)

I would LOVE LOVE LOVE the eggplant recipe? Thanks so much!

2007-11-17T09:18:00.000-04:00

I just wanted to let you all know that while this breakfast looks wildly indulgent, I only have it about twice a year if that many times :) And like I said in the column, someone would have to make it for me :) the only reason I made it myself this time is because I had to take the pics :) and for the record, I had 3/4 of 1 saugage and half an egg and 1 piece of bacon :) So my conscience is clear. (lol)

I want to thank all the people that are firmly in the no-sweet at breakfast camp, acknowledge the breakfast lovers among us - sweet and savoury and to let those that reiterated that breakfast is the most important meal, know that I hear you and thank you for loving me where I'm at :D

I enjoyed your comments and breakfast musings, one day we should plan to get-together and have such musings in person. I mean that. Thank you: Peter, Bindiya, Asha, Seema, Pilar, Amanda, Sra, Meeso, Ady, Zippiknits, Siri, Sandeepa, Andy, Puspha, Kiriel, Latha, Laavanya, Anh, Wendy, Susan, Kelly-Jane, Jeena, Sig, Sylvia, Mallow, Tigerfish, Kristen, Maryann, Kaykat, Raaga, Shanti, Pat, Mahek, Padmaja, Swati, Jennifer, Lissie, Seena, Deborah, Elly, Kevin, Anali, Priar, Linda, Miri, Rachel, Rachna, Shella, SMN, Jenndz, Jaden, Valentina, Happy Cook, Toni, Mansi, EMW, Jenn, WMW, Rosa, Shivapriya, Caff.

Chennette - of course! During Ramadan, it must be difficult. Never thought of that :)

Lilandara - yes, well, I have heard it being called float more than once in TT. I remembered eating once at the Breakfast Shed, asking for a bake and the woman behind the counter saying, "Oh, you want a float?!" ;)

Dhivya - The pics are a work in progress. I'm constantly learning :)

Glamah16 - Sent the recipe right?

Indo - they are on the list of things to try :)

Elle - I bet I'd love those turkey sausages but since I don't like making breakfast for myself, perhaps you can make them and invite me over? :)

Willow Tree - thanks so much for sharing!

Suganya - like you said, perhaps a roasted tomato salsa?

Mohamed, Rahin, Dhanggit, Princess Jibi, & Ruy - a very warm Caribbean welcome to all of you. Thanks for taking the time to stop by and visit. I do hope you come back again when you have the time.

Margot - I wish I was there!

Rasa M - I love the new gear! Thanks for the continued advice and tips. All the best with the cooking classes.

Helen - oh yeah jumping up and down on a full stomach is not a good idea :) Good to see you!

Sia - waiting for your email address.

Sirisha - don't worry about it hon. Focus on your studies. All the best and looking forward to your return.

2007-11-16T23:40:00.000-04:00

Yum! I love eggs and sausage and tomatoes, whether they're for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner.
But, my husband makes steel cut oatmeal every morning with chunks of apple so I, like a good girl, eat my oatmeal...
and dream of sausages. :)

2007-11-16T23:08:00.000-04:00

Great post and article! Your pictures were completely delicious.

I, in no way, agree with you about breakfast for myself, but I defend your right to feel that way. The times I've wanted a fast breakfast, I've found the best one is a combination of a protein and a carbohydrate - a piece of whole wheat bread with a slice of turkey or cheese. When I was a kid, I used to eat a piece of toast with mayonnaise! But curry in any form? How yummy, I'd go for that...

2007-11-16T21:53:00.000-04:00

I love the pictures. I can just taste the food from looking!=)I agree with you though, I'd rather not have breakfast unless it's a breakfast worth waking up early for.
Glad I came across this place.=)

2007-11-16T10:31:00.000-04:00

I totally understand where you are coming from. I have to say that my favorite meal of the day is breakfast but I don't usually like to eat breakfast at breakfast time. The dishes on your post look so yummy, I could eat them anytime. I especially like the bakes and the roti with the eggplant. I wish I could visit and eat all the delicious foods you guys have!

2007-11-15T20:13:00.000-04:00

What a spread, Cynthia!!! I love chilies on my eggs too. I also have it with some sweet soy sauce sometimes.

Hi Cynthia,
I'm not a great breakfast person either, but with this one that you have served....I can eat it happy almost daily.Hash browns and eggs look tempting.

2007-11-15T13:59:00.000-04:00

I can't eat a lot for breakfast as I teach aerobics and Pilates right after and jumping up ad down on a full stomach is not that great but I never skip it. My favorite is always fresh fruit(kiwi/berries) and some yogurt. I love savry breakfasts on sundays like sausages, hashbrowns and egg white omelettes (can't stand the taste of cooked yolks, except in cakes, ahahah!!!). You made a lovely spread!

2007-11-15T10:06:00.000-04:00

OOOh! If only I got to have them every day...a spread like that is only for the weekends for me.

2007-11-14T18:34:00.000-04:00

Hey,

Can you believe that living 3 years now in London I have never had English Breakfast! :)
But we often have fried bakes and omelette's.
I made finally your Dhal Puri, it was delicious. I served it with some coconut-curry chicken and tomato salad.

Have a great day, Margot

2007-11-14T18:04:00.000-04:00

Your breakfast table looks like a hotel breakfast buffet at a Swedish hotel, Cynthia. They serve cheese, ham, sausage, egg, bread, yogurt, granola or cereals, juice, coffee, tea, fruit.... My breakfast only gives me a good start to the day, and I can´t eat that much in the morning.

2007-11-14T17:56:00.000-04:00

Unlike you, I like breakkfast--but usually only have a tall soy cappucin. Those has browns look amazing (so perfectly cubed)--and the roti. Yum!

(I'm a sucker for carbs. Can you tell?)

Oh, I'm with you Cynthia...while I do occasionally...

2007-11-14T16:22:00.000-04:00

Oh, I'm with you Cynthia...while I do occasionally indulge in leftover cake for breakfast (shh...that's a bad habit), I prefer savory dishes. I'm a big fan of the European breakfast of cheese and bread.
