Its alread midday Christmas Day here in Eastern Australia.
I was listening to the medieval religious music of Hildegard von Bingen this morning as I ate my Chrissy Breakfast of:
cold mango and cherry and passionfruit salad
with freshly ground flaxseed with a touch of cardamom
The cardamom is the secret of so many things dessert.
My daughter who cooks, upon learning that I had no special Christmas breakfast planned, made chocolate chip scones.
(she’s the one on my right…left side of pic)
Yep, we’ve got dough rising in the fridge for sticky buns. It’s a yeast dough heavy with butter, and the goo is butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and pecans. I can’t wait, either.
My husband always makes us Christmas breakfast…Gingerbread waffles with real maple syrup (mega-yum!), vegetarian sausage, coffee for us grownups and eggnog (non alcoholic, of course) for our wild child.
Its funny how the Cs have it for Christmas! I mean C for Christmas and C for coffee, cinnamon, cardamom, chocolate chip …
Everyone had a C in their menu except for poor Peggioh!
Maybe Peggy might put a pinch of clove in her oatmeal?
Oh Gee Wizz Joseph and Avanutria! :roll:
You really dont get it do you? You havent got the secret of this topic!
You jest dont belong in our little C for clique!
Good Night to you all. Tis nearly 2 in the morning here.
Tomorrow its
BOXING DAY BREKKIE!!!
I wasn’t sure what I was going to make this morning, but since I got up pretty much before anyone else did, I decided to make bananas foster. It turned out pretty good
(edited to add something with a C..hmm..what as it…oh yeah, cereal)
Ohhhhhhh! (whacks head) NOW I ‘C’…heh. OK, lemme try this again…I had a vast, steaming mug of Lyon’s Original w/milk and sweetener…
…
…along with a crispy, crunchy, chocolate chip Christmas cookie.
Breakfast this morning was Eggs Benedict and Tampico “juice.” It used to be Christmas Crunch Cereal, but that sort of went away when family members started reacting to the sugar and artificial color overdoses.
