Weekend Experiences

The decadent breakfast and other stuff

I don't usually eat breakfasts that look like this, I don't often have the time; a coffee with low sugar yoghurt and low carbohydrate granola is what I normally eat, sometimes just a smoothie...but now and then I just have to indulge in something just a little more grandiose than yoghurt and granola.

When I find the time I'll prepare a breakfast like you see above, scrambled eggs, bacon, grilled tomatoes and mushrooms, with chorizo or avocado (or both) on the side sometimes as well. There's something a little decadent about a breakfast like this and a decadent breakfast is exactly what I had this morning...it was glorious and a perfect way to start my Saturday.

The rest of today went well, a mixture chores and enjoymemt, the enjoyment being blasting 300 rounds of 9mm ammunition down range at my gun range in an IPSC handgun match - always a blast, literally - and the chores were a combination of running errands, dropping off and picking up things, a little bartering with a couple mates swapping vegetables for eggs, milk and honey that they produce, and housework...the last sucked just a little bit but I enjoy a clean and tidy environment in my home so it must be done.

Later I made dinner, some legit burgers, beef for me and vegetarian ones for my vegetarian girl, and we watched a few episodes of Altered Carbon on Netflix. Afterwards we both read a little, had coffee and snacks, and soon it'll be bed time and...never you mind what happens next.

It was a good Saturday all things considered, no complaints at all, and I'm looking forward to Sunday.

I hope y'all are having a great weekend so far and have some cool things planned. Drop me a line below if you want to tell me about it.

I usually only have big breakfasts on the weekend. Like you that is the only time that I can actually sit an appreciate it. It's pretty rare that my wife and I go out to eat for breakfast. Usually only if we are already travelling.

That breakfast looks great, I like everything about it, especially how those mushrooms look.

How lucky is your girl that you made veggie burgers for her. I would eat a couple right now, one with meat and one without 🤭

Thinking about so much food I just remembered that I haven't had lunch yet and here it is 18:40 on Saturday. So I'd better make spaghetti with meat and go get a couple of beers while listening to music.

That sounded like an awesome day. Eating good food, doing a lot of the things you like, being responsible, and spending time with your partner. I don't think most would ask for more.

Mine was a bit simpler. I finished some leftover meat that's been in the fridge, drank whisky with family, and had fun playing Scrabble and Catan.

It's a temptation that happens quite often when you are on a strict diet regimen but I guess it's okay to yield to it once in awhile. A delicious meal you must have had @galenkp😊 I have nothing much planned for this weekend except my brother-in-law's birthday bash slated for Sunday and my usual church service. I wish you a great weekend.

Food is meant to be enjoyed. I'm happy for you that you got the time to indulge in this big breakfast. This is probably bad to say but I tend to skip breakfast. I'm mostly eating two meals a day usually one around 10-1 and another around 5-8. I guess this is my secret to not being fat or it's just my metabolism is still good for now hehe.

Now you making me crave some burgers. I will have to get that sometime. I did have a wagyu buger few weeks ago at a restaurant called Black Tap; I don't think they have one in Australia though. It was delicious!

That breakfast looks devine.

It has been my lot to be one of those that never gets up hungry. Normally, no matter how tasty it could be, the thought of a big breakfast early on doesn't appeal to me, however, if someone wants to go out somewhere that serves a big breakfast menu about mid morning, I'm all over that. We have a place called Cracker Barrel here that among other things, will serve breakfast all day. It is not luxury quality food, but decent deep south fixins on the most part. I do enjoy that on rare occasion.

Sounds like you had a decent day overall and that's a wonderful thing.

I am resisting the chores right now ! If I don't look at them, they are not there, right ? I need a maid, I just can't be bothered with cleaning up behind myself all the time. 🤣
@avdesing(80)· 864d
At the moment I am drinking mate with my family, having a snack and chatting, a very pleasant moment.

Then I will go out in the evening. Tomorrow I will enjoy the Sunday walk and family!

Today I also had to do some things around the house, but it's ok, it has to be done hahaha.

You had a very good and productive day!

😂 That breakfast up there brother, is a rich man's food in Nigeria.🤣🤣🤣 Please don't be offended, I'm just being curious. You really spent your Saturday as a responsible young man and a helpful partner at home. I like that. Myself, I was with some group of women in a special ceremony organized only for women. It was a wonderful experience too. Being home now, I trying to put my brain to work to make entries for you two contests. Your stuffs are always brain tasking and good for mental development. That is why I want to try them out regularly, whether I pass or not.
@mfontom(68)· 864d
This a nice recount of your day. You had a great Saturday with really Saturday stuffs. Wishing you a good during the night.
@fieryfootprints(74)· 864d
your breakfast looks great. I especially like how delicious those mushrooms look. My breakfast and dinner normally is just cheese on bread and a cup of coffee. Sometimes I change cheese with bacon or ham.
@duskobgd(74)· 864d

scrambled eggs, bacon, grilled tomatoes and mushrooms, with chorizo or avocado (or both)

Excellent breakfast. That's what I eat every time I'm on a trip, private or business. I have a caloric breakfast and I'm full all day.
@bulliontools(75)· 864d
I'm with you on breakfast. Mine is usually a cup of coffee poured into a shaker bottle, add a cup of milk, a cup of water and a scoop of protein shake mix, and call it good.

When I do take the time to have a proper breakfast, I always make it worth my while. Probably my favorite that I've found recently is Eggs Benedict on a toasted croissant, with crumbled chorizo, Chipotle hollandaise sauce, and a side of cubed potatoes that are toasted to perfection. I'll typically pair it with a huckbleberry sparkling wine. It's spicy, delicious and worth the cost!

My weekend is just starting here. I'll pick up groceries, take care of some laundry, and later this afternoon we'll go over to my wife's aunt and uncle's house to celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary. Sunday will probably involve some light yard work and mowing after church, but the rest of the day should be mellow.

I hope you have a relaxing rest of your weekend, my friend!
