That sounds like “toad-in-the-hole”, but of course there are variations. In a movie Cher starred in, where she slaps the guy and says, “snap out of it”—I forgot the title—she’s in the kitchen frying bread in a skillet and presses the center in to drop and fry an egg— I believe she says “toad-in-the-hole”, but I have a British cookbook that makes it look like sausage, egg, and cheese is baked in a scone, called, “toad in the hole”, as well.
Haven’t seen this for a little while. I’ll start: So, this morning I made a “Breakfast Club”. Grilled some bacon, poached two eggs, sliced both Swiss and Irish Cheddar ( hello Dino..), sliced small tomato, cut lettuce and finely diced quarter of onion. Toasted three slices Rye. Tossed lettuce with onion and dab of mayonnaise, put sandwich together— lettuce/onion, bacon, Swiss, egg, toast, lettuce/onion, cheddar, egg, tomatoes, top toast, cut, chow. It was great. Dinner will be lemon- dill-garlic salmon steak, Brussels sprouts and feta in puff pastry, green salad. Dessert will be a hot buttered brandy...
Supercalifragilistic way to start the day ( it’s morning here..) I can’t think of a better way for nearly any goals— getting obstacles out of the way. You rock, lovie...thanks a zillion for this timely adage.
Just got up for a minute (it’s 1a.m. Here) and decided to check this— thank you for kind words, and Dino, and others. It helps— perhaps I’m a little sensitive at the moment. I’m cool with taking a break. I’d rather do that than have any sore feelings with friends, and I consider folks on CS to be friends. Glad you like The Carpenters, Dino...thanks for the encouragement, Tiger moth...I do have Skedaddle, little booger is warm and purring beside me. You know something funny? When I move around in bed, even a little, he gets a little grouchy for a second or two, like, how dare you disturb me...then, back to purrrrring.
Hey— off topic, but I’m being very frank with my question: I’ve taken some heat lately, and want to know what you, and others, really think— am I a piece of crap?? Do I need to stop participating in forums? I’m getting creamed from time to time. Just be honest, please...thx
Listening to “Carpenters” right now. Always soothing...and Karen has such an unusually rich, perfect singing voice for a lady. “ Top Of The World” is great...
Oh stop it already. I was not trying to stone you. And I’m not on “ a high horse” any more than you are. It’s perfectly reasonable for me to try to explain something that I DO believe should have been “ understood”, but I did give you the benefit of the doubt, after all. If you read other threads I’ve participated on, you’d see that I DON’T always think I’m right. In fact, I’ve changed my view a number of times. I did not “throw you under the bus” simply because I wanted to clarify. I meant it when I said you’ve always been one of my favorite people, and this misunderstanding doesn’t change that. I’m not fragile with my feelings or thoughts of others. I get it that you don’t want to respond, but your reaction does not change the fact that, again, you’re one of my favorite people on here. For the record, I realize I come across as authoritative, at least at times. I’m working on it...I give you respect for your reaction, but I also do not believe I deserved your hateful words. I yet wish you blessings and peace...
(Karlorado). Yes! This same guy from India called me! I’m to give him all of my bank numbers and pins, social security numbers and drivers license number, and then he’ll make sure my arrest warrant with an APB will be expunged from the Paris office. WOW! I can’t believe someone out there cares about me SO MUCH! My highest hopes have been reached— my prayers have been answered! Bless him...I just sent the check— it was only $3,000.00. Dirt cheap for all he did for me..my hero...
Thanks for brevity in understanding. Do you think these prose-in-computer- script misinterpretations are perhaps regional? I don’t find myself being misunderstood much out here in the West/ Southwest.
See #25. I guess I see where you could have read that incorrectly— where I said, “ except for one bite”. That meant it’s generally ALLOWED to take one bite, and then decide it isn’t good, and therefore one should not have to p ay. But can I be honest? I think it is reasonable for me to believe that you should have understood it as such..please read more carefully. Just saying...
Now I’m confused. No, I don’t think you should have paid for it. Read my comments again, please. I think you misunderstood ME. Thank you. ( feel free to quote where you believe I thought you should pay for it after just one taste/ bite. I did not say that.)
My understanding, (at least in Oregon..) is that if you “taste” any restaurant dish and don’t like it, (notwithstanding leaving just one tiny bite and then saying it wasn’t good..) in other words, leaving ALMOST ALL of the food, you are NOT required to pay for it. This is commonly called, “you ate the steak; you didn’t eat the steak”. Whether or not you “thought” it would be good is inmaterial. Comparatively, say you buy a pair of shoes. You walk around the shop, they feel great. Next day, they don’t. You tried them, they don’t work. You get to take them back for a refund.
12 oz Clamato Juice, 2 oz Vodka, tsp fresh lime juice, pinch celery salt. Dump all in shaker with ice, shake and pour into big glass. Drop in a stick of celery, dill pickle spear, or pickled green bean. (Your region might call this drink Clam Digger)

I had dessert first, btw...
RE: Negative thoughts
Ive posted this before, but for anyone who missed it:“ Flowers cannot bloom without the rain
Nor can rivers run without the snow
Cold and stormy Arctic winds
Make Southern breezes blow
So when life before you seems weary
And everything’s just going wrong
Remember, it’s the stones in the water
That give the brook it’s song”
