Shabbat Morning
Shabbat dawns softly with the weakened Autumn sun, but the landscape is still green here, and the lemon-yellow sunlight mixes with the greenery in a lush texture that makes us forget that winter is at the stoop. But it is too cool to wander out on the porch with my coffee unless I bundled up, so I’ll just appreciate it from the warmth of the studio.
Sacred music is playing on the puck, but the bird doesn’t seem to mind the change, and burbles and chirps with happy glee. Shared my morning cookies with the mooches, but sneakily added one more than usual just for them. We don’t just spoil our mutts, we ruin them for anyone else.
Kosher eggs benedict for breakfast again today. I had to try out the turkey Canadian bacon that was in the bacon section of the store. It wasn’t bad at all. Some of the other ham/bacon/sausage substitutes had been disappointing over the years, but this one might be a keeper for those special brunches. I think this may be my first attempt at egg poaching in a pan. I really like creamy poached eggs but resorted to using an egg cooker to make them.
So goes this peaceful moment of coffee sippin’ and music.
Good morning!

My husband loves poached eggs, would eat them for every meal if he could…. but never liked the Benedict. Kosher or otherwise!

I am sniffing around for a sous vide heater. They make the perfect egg and are almost in my price range now. Eggs benedict are an acquired taste, I think. But with enough fats in the hollandaise …

I don’t regard others eating pork as offensive, no apology needed. I suspect that it will be very tasty!
