Some weekend mornings, I actually am able to be a bit lazy. I might have a bit of a lie-in and stay in bed for an extra hour. Then comes the coffee, rich and dark and smelling of chickory. And since I woke late, I usually figure it is time for a breakfast-brunch of sorts, with all the fixings.
I don't eat like this every day, nor every weekend. But when I do, I like to make it a bit fancy-schmancy pants. Homemade biscuits from scratch, the double smoked Amish bacon I covet, a couple of fresh eggs from the ladies, and perhaps some homemade, chunky breakfast potatoes. Cooked in a bit of the rendered duck fat that my friend gifted me for my birthday, and tossed with red and yellow onion and a bit of freshly minced garlic, they are out of this world good. Flavorful without being greasy, it is my breakfast potato cookery of choice.
In the middle of a busy work week, having something like this to look forward to on a lazy weekend morning is simply wonderful.
That bacon looks delicious.
