Saturday Morning Breakfast
What then to do on a lazy Saturday at home but have a great breakfast while catching up on some of the week’s Daily Show and Colbert Report episodes? I can hardly think of anything better. Except for, of course, taking pictures of said breakfast and then blogging about it.
Anyway, as most people who actually know me have found out, I have a very mean appetite:
-
- Before
-
- After
The above is actually a regular breakfast for me. It consists of: 2 bagels (with cream cheese and sprinkled grated cheese), a good-sized slice of cheese (here represented by some hard cheddar), some slices of meat on the side (here represented by some turkey), 2 soft-boiled eggs (here being large brown eggs), some cottage cheese (mmm… protein and fat), and, naturally, a nice cup of milk (here being some good ole’ fattening whole milk). Yum.
Anyway, that pretty much wraps up this post. Except, one final thought: its only been about 1 hour and 15 min since I ate… and I’m already kind of hungry again. I guess I need to find some denser bagel.
I hope this has been an enlightening experience for everyone

Turned on some music to start my day

I closed my eyes and I slipped away.

Hunger Pains
Everyone always asks me what Bulgarian food is. I’ve always answered in very bland and generic terms such as “delicious”, “diverse”, and the like. I apologize. I’m a terrible cook, and a worse describer-of-food. I specialize in eating instead!
Anyway, here’s a good-faith attempt to remedy the situation somewhat. This winter, when I was visiting family in Bulgaria for the holidays, I took some (very few) pictures of the feasts. I’ve included a few here. [Note: not pictured is the entire whole pig that was cooked and eaten. Yum.]
Enjoy:
