The other morning after Christmas, mom/dad went out for a true Southern breakfast. Mom/dad said they had to get this out of their system to start the year off right. Shaking piggy head – I don’t get it. Mom/dad wouldn’t tell me where some of this food came from… they said it was best that I didn’t know. Snorts – we *all* know what that means huh? So, let me give you a breakdown of a southern breakfast:
Of course, buttered biscuits, eggs (scrambled and over easy), sausage, streak o’ lean (a southern delicacy – look it up – gulps), pancake, southern gravy and real grits with shredded cheese. Now tell me my friends – which item do you want to try first?

Uhoh………..well, this is hardly “diet food” BUTTTTTT, the day after Christmas we all should be spoiled right? My Mom made Sausage gravy and biscuits for Christmas morning breakfast……I had a lick of the white sauce – it was darn good!

I know! But mom said that day was okay because today was the big get.your.big.butt.back.on.your.new.way.of.eating.day – snorts that was a snoutful. And gravy – yum! I love it when mom fixes homemade southern grits with cheese. One of my all time favorites. Have you tried that? XOXO – Bacon

My Dad has grits frequently but don’t think either of them have had them with cheese…..I’ll have to “SUGGEST” that! 🙂

OMP Cousin. They have not LIVED! Add some shredded cheese to the mix and it’s a party waiting to happen! XOXO – Bacon
P.S. Mom even adds crumbled up bacon to hers with the cheese. She says it delicious!

On a related note, I got back too late to have this ready yesterday but I soaked my black-eye peas last night and can’t wait to get cooking my collards & peas today!!!

Snorts!! That sounds like a grand dinner my friend. I had me some black eyed peas too with homemade cornbread. One can never have too much good luck for the new year, right? XOXO – Bacon

That’s one of dad’s favorites. Mom said that breakfast was it for him. He said he enjoyed every bite. XOXO – Bacon

haha…definitely don’t want to try *streak of lean* first…no way. Actually grits sound good with some chicky boobs or beef in them. Kali agrees…grits are for us.

Hand over the biscuit and nobody gets hurt. Since it’s someone else’s biscuit, there are no calories.

I love it… and this kind of breakfast is the best… we all sit a little longer together and talk about this and that instead to grab just a cup of coffee and to disappear within a minute…

This is so true. But back to reality now and the real world…sigh. XOXO – Bacon
