Breakfast
Ok, all hands to the plough here, the challenge is to create an East meets West breakfast.So ................ easiest is to say
(a) what you like for breakfast (not necessarily what you have, but what you would like to have) and
(b) the name or type, or at least whether East or West
These are the only ones I know - probably have variations you know or prefer - and all are West
Full English - bacon, eggs, toast. sausage, grilled mushroom, grilled tomato and sometimes steak
Full Scottish - bacon. eggs, square (Lorne) sausage, potato scones, black pudding and sometimes haggis
(Both of the above often served with baked beans but not when I make them ) (whistle berries)
Continental - fruit, pastries, croissants, cheese, at least one type of charcuterie (usually ham)
American pancake heaven - stack of pancakes with bacon and maple syrup. I have no idea what other breakfasts are popular in the US, for the whole 10 days I was in the US I ate pancakes
I've been out with Jewish friends who had kippers with fried egg (in place of bacon)
Oh and by the way, to keep it topical and related to CS, the difference between being involved and being committed can be demonstrated by bacon and eggs. The hen is involved, but the pig is committed.

Just back after long hiatus.
Sorry again.
And hello to all...my name is Jenny.
Oooh Kal looks FAB
Mimi, ok, I looked it up. Wonton noodles is a Cantonese noodle dish which is popular in Guangzhou, Hong Kong, Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand. The dish is usually served in a hot broth, garnished with leafy vegetables, and wonton dumplings. Correct?
Viking, you remind me, I've probably lost coffee buns for the rest of my life, I only ever saw them in Scotland. They aren't a breakfast thing, but were often the first thing I ate in the day, at about 11, with coffee. Not very sweet, seriously YUM.
Molly, all I can say is I'm glad I didn't give up sleeping until 9 to rush over the Ireland for scrambled eggs on toast which I can have right here from hens next door, too, I just need to nip quietly over the wall and help myself. No carbon footprint for me. Well, no footprints at all, if possible
Diova, oh aye, I can imagine him getting very testy indeed
Hi Jenny, welcome back, find things very different? I've found a blog complaining about the blogs now and the people now and nothing as good as in the old days, and then I noticed it was written in 2012 ...
