    Pancakes! Made by my own fair hand.

    Weren't great though... tried to make American-style fluffy ones but used plain rather than SR flour. Meh.

    Wholemeal toast and scrambled eggs.

    Okay I'll take the bait. What are 63 Degree eggs? :)

    I had a little home-made granola with milk, and a fried egg on a slice of buttery toast.

    It is an egg that is poached to exactly 63 degrees cooked Sous Vide I think. I am open to correction though.

    Yup pretty much. You poach them in their shells at 63 degrees in a water oven/Sous Vide oven. I did them last night brought them to work and warmed them under the tap for a few mins before chucking them on top of shop bought pancakes that work bought us today (original plan was a bagel but pancakes were a much better option).

    Two boiled eggs (laid this morning!!) and brown toast soldiers and lots of Twining's English Breakfast tea.

    Cavity inducing porridge made with some of my remaining pancake fillings

    Went for brunch with my flatmate this morning. I got smoked crispy streaky bacon, poached eggs and doorstep batch toast. Yum!

    The fridge freezer had suddenly decided to stop working. Just as well I didn't have much in the freezer, we're having fish fingers for breakfast.

    I tried to get artist with the breakfast this morning, bread, ham and egg, stuffed mushrooms and sausages.

    Thank you. I used a rolling pin on some slices of bread to flatten them, then I buttered them and put them in a muffin tin, then I put a slice of ham and broke an egg into them. Popped them into the oven at 180, then sprinkled a bit of parsley on top.

    It was one way of using up left over ham from the school sandwiches:D

    A very rare Irish breakfast (minus the black pudding) which I thoroughly enjoyed :)

    I LOVE the sound of this...how long did you cook them for?

    I always worry cooking eggs as I'm never entirely sure how long to do them for.

    I had them in for about 8-9 mins (for meduim egg) it would depend on the size of the egg and how well done you like them. If you have a glass oven door it would be easy to keep an eye on them.

    Slice of wholemeal soda bread with melted feta cheese and a poached egg this morning :)

    There's a new café around the corner from us that looked really quirky & promising from the outside so we dropped in for breakfast and it turned out to be just awful, which we copped it would be from the minute we set hoof past door saddle but we're too chicken to swivel and leave.

    Think it's one of those places where someone thought 'I like food! I can run a food business, why NOT open a cafe! No reason!' and they have not one single clue of how to do it. So they, for example, didn't realise that the Cuisine de France parbaked frozen Turkish flatbread needed to be finished in the oven resulting in a breakfast 'panini' that crumbled apart. (which I only ordered because they 'couldn't find suitable beans' for their homemade baked beans)

    Also the lady behind the counter was on her first day there and asked could she have some soup on her break and was told no. Not pleasant to listen to someone going 'oh...oh that's ok, not really hungry anyway' while you try to peace together your greasy, crumbly, easi-single-y flatbread. AGH.
