Bacon from a local farm, 2 eggs over easy, sourdough toast, half eaten
with the eggs, half with strawberry preserves and the rest of my tea.

Today's breakfast was two sausage patties on very lightly toasted white
bread with a couple of squirts of spicy brown mustard. One more piece of
buttered toast smeared with Welch's strawberry jam and all were pushed
down my gullet with coffee.

Probably very good, but why eggbeaters? Doesn't the cheese and butter
sort of nullify the egg substitute?

I do wish I could get good pumpernickel.

I had a big bowl of old fashioned oats after french press coffee.

My son came by and, thinking he is going to help me develop a healthier
diet, cut up some fruit and topped it with yogurt and granola. That is
closer to my regular breakfast than the bacon and eggs we usually cook
when he comes. However, we also had a sticky bun with our healthy
breakfast.

I had a pretty good brunch yesterday. My wife and I went to a town about
30 miles away so she could deliver some flowers to a 101 year old women.
I killed some time waiting for her and then we went to a funky old
dinner in the main street. I was just going to have a coffee and one of
their huge and delicious looking date squares, but I changed my mind and
had bacon and eggs.


I have a mixed review of the meal. The bacon was over cooked and the
home fries were under cooked. They were mostly just warmed up leftover
potatoes that had not been on the grill long enough and there had not
been enough oil to get a nice brown crust. The beans were a little under
done and needed salt. However, the eggs were poached to perfection. The
highlight of the meal was the toast. They bake their bread in house.
It was thick sliced, thick enough to make Texas toast look like Rhode
Island, and it was incredible. That delicious toast made up for the
shortcomings of the other items.

Agreed! I always have muesli and skimmed milk with some blueberries with
(occasionally) a dollop of yoghurt.

The Cuppa sounds right up my alley.

So, on average it was perfectly cooked.

Yeah. The toast was so big and so good that I didn't really need the
home fries. Bacon tends to be finicky. I have only recently been
converted to baked beans because I found out how good they can be, so if
the beans are not spectacular they are only what I am used to and don't
expect to be impressed.

But.... holy cow that toast was good.

Does that get you stoned? Does CBD oil have any effect like that?

Â* There are 2 major active compounds in pot , CBD doesn't get you high
, THC does that . Many medicinal varieties have up to 20%/80% CBD/THC
ratios ... so while they do reduce pain for instance , if you still hurt
you don't care . BTW , most CBD oil comes from plants grown for the hemp
fibers . So little THC in those that you couldn't get high on it if you
smoked a boxcar full . If not for the other legal ramifications (sched 1
drug , 2nd amendment issues - that law needs to be changed) I'd probably
apply for a card to help with my chronic back pain . As it is I rely on
ibuprofen , alcohol , and an occasional prescription opioidÂ* for really
bad days .

Kahlua in coffee for breakfast... maybe he thinks it's the CBD oil that
is adding the little kick.

I don't eat breakfast every day and generally it's late enough it should
rightly be called brunch. I don't think two eggs with a couple of
strips of bacon and a piece of toast is a *lot* of food.

That's nice! My dad's older sister will be 99 this year.
Unfortunately, she finally succumbed to dementia and doesn't know who I
am anymore. We used to talk on the phone several times a year.

I do have an elderly aunt with all her faculties. She's related by
marriage; she married mom's older brother. She loves to cook!
Unfortunately at 96 she's slowing down. Used to be her kids and
grandkids would come over every Sunday and she'd cook dinner. Now
they're oh so busy. One of her sons has been staying with her. She and
I keep in touch by phone and exchange the occasional card with a written
note.

I was going to say, like Texas toast? Sounds like a nice piece of
bread! I still can't wrap my mind around beans (on toast or not) for
breakfast.

She is the Goodwill Convener for an association of retired teachers and
part of that job involves sending birthday cards to older members, and
flowers to those over 100. This old girl had been MIA for a while and
it turned out she is in a hospital pending an opening for a spot in an
assisted living home.

My aunt down in Florida is 94 and seems to be doing well. I try to call
about once a month to see how she is doing. I think it was a year ago
January that I was going to call my uncle, but it was 9 am and I thought
it was too early to phone. About 10 minutes later she called here to
tell me that my uncle had died the night before. He would have turned
100 that August.

It was thicker than any Texas toast I have seen, but also longer and
wider. I don't usually go for Texas toast because it is usually just
thick cut commercial blah bread and only toasted part way through, but
this stuff was amazing.

As for the beans...... I guess it is part of the full English breakfast.
If my son comes by for breakfast he likes to have beans with it. I
took a friend to a breakfast grill around the corner from my son's place
one day last week. He declined the beans at first but tried some of
mine and ended up getting an order for himself. He had said that beans
with breakfast didn't really appeal, but he was quickly converted. Of
course, they have to be good house cooked beans, not the canned version.

It didn't sound good to me the first time my son did the closest he
could to a full English breakfast.

Actually, the first time I saw beans served with breakfast was back in
the 60s when I was in the reserves and we were doing field exercises.
When I went for breakfast on the first morning I was surprised to see
beans in the mess hall breakfast. Each morning they seemed to have the
same pan of beans, just a little bit less of them each day, but with
ever widening craters in the surface as they aged. Come to think of it,
that may be what turned me off baked beans for a long time.

The Kahlua is just for a taste. Not enough to feel the miniscule alcohol in it.

The mix really works well, and I think I may have a fourth Cuppa Plus before dinner!

And no CBD oil is NOT psychoactive in any way, but has definite soothing comforting effect.

Thanks. These weren't sweet, though, they were savoury. Red beans is
quite possible, maybe adzuki beans. They're red.

Try Googling "manju." It's popular on this rock. When people come over from Maui, they bring manju as gifts.

The Second Amendment in its entirety:

State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be
infringed."

What the hell does the above have to do with pot? Oh, Wait! The BATF,
which may or may not be Constitutional, enforces that law.
The Constitution and Bill of Rights allow that which is not expressly
forbidden, but the Second Amendment has absolutely nothing to do with
the current thread.
Laws, not forbidden by the Constitution or Bill of Rights, do.
