What's your favorite meal of the day?
Mine's breakfast. Without a question! I just wake up excited to eat some darn breakfast. I mean, just think about all the fun you have while you're making up your mind: Will it be scrambled eggs, something bacon-y, porridge, coffee and a croissant, pancakes, etc. Are you gonna go out and get it, maybe? Hmm. Decisions, decisions.
In one of my previous blogs, Cooking with Nanna, I talked about all kinds of food made by some adorable grandmas from all over the world. Hence the title. You were kind enough and left your comments. Some of y'all even shared some pictures with me. I remember setareh introduced me to "Abgusht" or something. Sorry, folks. I dunno how to spell it.
Now, How about some breakfast, huh?
Let's do this!
Pancakes, bacon, syrup and blueberries. Told ya!
Sausages, bacon, eggs, grilled tomato, mushrooms, bread, black pudding and baked beans. And you'll wash 'em down with a nice cup of tea.
