Breakfast
I love breakfast. I'd go out for breakfast every weekend if I could, or at least linger a while in the kitchen preparing something yummy like Belgian waffles, muffins, or German apple pancakes. Without much time in the mornings before work, though, a bagel with cream cheese (organic, naturally), a cup of tea (or coffee if Huz happens to be up and has made some - I always steal a cup because I'm too lazy to make on my own), and a bowl of cereal or oatmeal have to do.But this morning? This morning! I had a wonderful breakfast that was both pleasing to my tastebuds and to the clock. I had one fried egg (cage free and grain-fed, naturally), two pieces of toasted whole-grain, whole-wheat bread (the chunkier the bread is with oats and nuts and seeds, the better) with raw honey on one and black raspberry jam on the other, and a sliced and salted homegrown tomato. Ahhhh. So good. I don't know if my tomatoes are heirlooms or what (I bought it as a small plant at Home Depot and it didn't have a label), but it was mottled red and green inside and had a fresh, almost citrus quality to it. It was fantastic!
