it was breakfast, but then pretty soon we realized it had also been lunch It was 2:45 when I started to write this post (my computer then acted up, delaying its completion). I’d finished washing the dishes and was sitting with my first coffee of the day. While at first we had been thinking of this as a breakfast meal, …

lunch of consequence
After last week’s detour through a one-stop condiment arrangement involving some homemade Zhug, today I went back to assembling a lot of separate things in little bowls for our traditional Sunday bacon and eggs early afternoon meal. It was a lunch of consequence. It included, not necessarily in any order: 6 fresh eggs from pastured chickens, John Stoltzfoos’ …
breakfast, basically composed of only fresh ingredients
The only thing even slightly exceptional about this version of our regular Sunday bacon and eggs breakfasts that I can think to mention is the fact that everything on the plate was fresh, with the exception of the salt, pepper, and capers (they arrived after the photo was taken). There were no other dry spices, …
Strammer Max: a breakfast not so different, just ‘whiter’
Yesterday I had come across a particularly fetching photograph of a Strammer Max (if you’re fond of eggs, there are actually many fetching photographs), so today I decided to essay this German breakfast classic for the first time, substituting its ham and eggs approach for our usual Sunday bacon and eggs (which always boasts a …
sunday breakfast, later than usual, but still a breakfast
More than bacon and eggs. There were eggs and bacon from Millport Dairy Farm, the eggs dusted with a little dried dark habanada pepper, chopped thin stems of wild garlic from Lani’s Farm, Maldon salt, Tellicherry pepper, and a bit of red wasabi micro radish from two Guys from Woodbridge; there were 3 Backyard Farms Maine …
breakfast kit, easily assmbled
I’ve been serving these early-day (Sunday and holiday) meals for so long and posting about them for almost as long, that I don’t think I really have to describe how they are put together. I mean, it’s just bacon and eggs! Also, each of these breakfasts normally relates pretty closely to the other, their ingredients don’t really vary …
spaghetti pan-fried with ramps, mint, parmesan, micro beet
I’ve always gone pretty easy on the amount of ramps I use in a meal, because it hasn’t occurred to me that I could but more than one bunch at a time; because I always improvise both the occasions and the amounts when I incorporate ramps into a meal; and because I’ve assumed that if a little …
breakfast with less was a little more
It was good. Although it was a little simpler than many of these mid afternoon ‘fast breakers’, so I had at least metaphorically brought fewer things to the table. There were still a lot of containers however but fortunately I actually enjoy washing up afterward, and have never had a dishwasher, or even wanted one. …
labor day lunch, no picnic
Labor Day lunch. The September date on which the U.S. and Canada celebrate Labour day (Labour Day) was chosen to avoid the putatively un-American leftist, socialist, communist (and, not incidentally, Haymarket massacre*) associations of May 1, the day on which the rest of the world still honors labor, laborers, “..the class demands of the proletariat, and..universal peace”, …
breakfast, the sunday before decoration day, with no graves
It looks like a holiday celebration. Of course I’m thinking of something that used to be called ‘Decoration Day‘, something beyond the morbid, more modern American celebration of soldiers fallen in the name of our national military fetish. I would prefer to think of this late spring weekend as an occasion when people gather, put …
