Jeffrey, Robins DaD,

Tai Chi and a bran muffin.........:)

The Amer. Rose

: You do I am all ears to hear this fascinating tale, what can it be?

: Jeffrey

: : Dearest Jeffrey,

: : We do something else to start the "rested engines of our anatomy." If you like, sometime, at your convenience, I will demonstrate.

: : Your American Rose

: : ****
: : :
: : : Dearest Mary

: : : My you trouble me gratly with those curt comments.

: : : In this Fair Isle breakfast has been and still is the main meal of the day to restart the rested engines of our anatomy.

: : : How can you account for history, Victorian Edwardian and the rest when breakfast ie coming from Break the Fast of the night, built a mighty country and Empire towit.

: : : Any day and every day boffins come up with ideas about this and that and that we are killing ourselves when in fact we are not.

: : : A balance of activity and less worry, and live for you only have this one chance .... is my motto and I am fit and will only leave this planet when I am ninety seven.

: : : Why, because I believe it already and Mary if you believe you have ninety percent of the problem solved.................

: : : Jeffrey

: : : : Hi guys......I can hear your arteries hardening

: : : : Mary (who gained 10 pounds from reading the menu)

: : :
: : : :
: : : : : Good Heavens,

: : : : : How could I have forgotten that punget taste that hits the palate as the tomatoe mixes in.

: : : : : So right Robin and not so long until I shall serve you same, but I am damned if I have to serve it in bed, to you, and I know you well.

: : : : : Love DaDD

: : : : : PS Of course should Vally demand so then I will be in beside her like a flash,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

: : : : : : : An Englishmans Breakfast

: : : : : : : Can there be more of a gastronomic delight than the sight of a well laden plate set well, and with the contrasting rich yolks of two well fried eggs, English breakfast sausage, fried bread done to a turn, the finest of smoked rashers of bacon, and to contrast this pallet of mouth watering colours, just a few fried mushrooms, picked earlier from the due covered fields.

: : : : : : : English mustard and HP sauce along with ground pepper and sea salt, sitting, waiting patiently for their turn to be used in the silver cruet.

: : : : : : : Piping hot breakfast coffee, for tea has long been taken, to finally rub into the taste buds all the excellence of such a meal.

: : : : : : : After which one can walk tall with the inner satisfaction of a settled mind and stomach for a while..........

: : : : : : I believe there is no more delight than an English Breakfast...
: : : : : : Nothing more satisfying... Indeed nothing quite as greasy...
: : : : : : but as I sat here drooling... Imagining every tender morsel... I couldn't help feeling
: : : : : : unsatisfied... There was something missing... and then I saw it...
: : : : : : right next to the slightly charred sausage on the plate at 11 oclock...North East of the sunny eggs..
: : : : : : towering above the delicate shriveled mushrooms...
: : : : : : A large, succulent grilled tomatoe charred slightly in its own right...
: : : : : : spewing some of it's juices over the sausage and giving the plate a shimmer as the early morning
: : : : : : sun hit the groove in the plate...
: : : : : : I imagined placing the tomatoe on the fried bread and delicately mushing the pulpy red meat into
: : : : : : the spongey mass...the bread sucking up all the juices so as to create a fat culinary masterpiece..
: : : : : : There is a strategy in eating an english breakfast
: : : : : : It takes years of experience to learn your own process... It cannot be taught...
: : : : : : As a child most parents will try and sway you toward their way of thinking...
: : : : : : Bester tried to tell me to poach the eggs on one occasion...
: : : : : : Sacrilidge...As were his other words of wisdom...
: : : : : : No... not even the Psi Corp can stop me from saving the tomatoe/bread pie for the last.. to mop up the residue of brown fruity HP and
: : : : : : unmistakeble hue of the English Mustard...
: : : : : : I Imagine my plate again...
: : : : : : clean... as if lapped by a dog...perhaps a faint streak of grease that survived the path
: : : : : : of the fried bread and tomatoe...
: : : : : : Perhaps :)
