Roger.... all i said was, 2 eggs sunny side up with hot sause on top!! and a cup of black coffee!

Just a small question.
Do you guys actually drink coffee with real Cream in it?.
Like the thick stuff we have here, that comes from the cows milk?.
Being a smoker myself, I can agree with not wantinhg to eat anything when you first get out of bed, but I usually get something into me.
Most important meal of the day I reckon!.

My meal times tend to be all over the place depending upon whether I'm out on a job or working at home that day.

Breakfast is usually light if I'm off out: A couple of pieces of toast with jelly or marmalade and coffee (black, plenty of it!).

If I'm home, then I'll often start with just some coffee, work an hour or so then stop and have a bigger breakfast.

It's nice to go the full 9 yards for Sunday brunch sometimes: Eggs, bacon, hashbrowns, sausage, plenty of bread and butter, orange juice, followed by toast and coffee.

Oh, and did I mention plenty of coffee?

I just did a quick calculation. Total group cholesterol: 262,000.

Cs409, 0hhhh!!!

BTW, speaking of hot sauce what's your favorite? I collect it ranging from a few hundred scolville units to 4 million.

Years ago I was very good in the morning. Cereal, OJ and some fruit. I do not remember when, but about 20 years ago I started drinking coffee. Now my breakfast is like most here... COFFEE PLEASE!!!!! Some days I would not have any food until getting home, which can be anywhere from 7 pm to 11 pm. I do not have that all driving energy I used to have, so I am going to try something different.
Today I started a new routine, of having breakfast with my coffee , and stretching, lets see how long that lasts.

First impression when I saw this thread open was that you were inviting us to breakfast, Trumpy. But, ok, we'll just talk about it.

Next, I figured out that the two blondes were eggs and the brunette was coffee but the redhead was a mystery...bacon, perhaps. But I'm with you on the hot sause/salsa. I like mine hot or medium hot as I prefer my intestines lined per the original installation specifications.

We also tend to go all-out for weekend breakfasts with bacon or sausage, eggs, hashbrowns, toast, coffee and juice. My hubby's a great cook and his breakfasts are better than when I cook.

My cholesterol is 155: HDL=36, LDL=106... probably won't have to kill myself watching it but should exercise more.

I added coffee when I added twins to my life 7 years ago... nothing like knowing you're going to depend on something for 'get-up-'n-go' when it got-up-and-went already. Before that I would've sworn coffee smelled and tasted like something you'd clean toilets or degreased bearings with before you repack them.

During the week-ice tea (NO SUGAR), two peanut butter sandwiches on brown bread and some fruit.
Weekends-Biscuits and gravy, grits, eggs over easy, corn bread, two pork chops or two polish sausage and tea

I just read a study the other day that all that pre packaged low carb stuff (not that anybody here really cares) is actually higher in calories that fresh fruit and veggies.

Wife and I are trying to get on a heatlhier diet since she has diabetes.

I've never been a morning person, & I usually don't get the munchies till about 1pm... If I do happen to get up early,... Egg Mc Muffin & hashbrowns & a big over-priced OJ from Mc D's usually does the job

I get out of bed at about 5:30 and have a couple cigarettes and about 32 ounces of coffee. Lunch at about 10:30.
