What for Father's Day Breakfast?

We're having bacon,eggs,hash browns,english muffins and chocolate milk(dh doesn't drink coffee) :redface: Oh and it won't be in bed either as dh's a grot when he eats in bed :cryinglaugh:

Oh Janie that sounds bliss too! I love a good croque monsieur as does Marc I think he'd love to gatecrash your place too ;)

Fiona - could you/would you post the recipe for your corn fritters? Pretty please? I have been wanting to make some for AGES and don't have a good tried and true recipe. Understand if it's a family secret, but you can kill me after I make them, OK? :lol:

DP's working tomorrow, so no breaky for us. :( He'll have the usual cup of coffee and a cigarette (naughty DP) and I'll have a big glass of activite. Exciting stuff. But I'll do something good for dinner to make up for it.

Cai, it's not a true croque monsieur (shame, I luuurve them!), rather really thick slabs of bread with ham and gruyere stuffed in a pocket, dipped in your egg and milk mixture and cooked a la french toast :) Then popped in the oven quickly so the cheese is really melty ;)

Thats the original Croque Monsieur :) The more elaborate one with bachemal sauce isn't actually as original as people think ;)

ETA: OK I got confuzzled, whilst I have had Croque Monsieur's made this way (and the bachemal way) in the US these are called Monte Cristo's if made with Swiss Cheese, Turkey, Chicken & Ham. Thank you - I love learning new foodie things :lol:

Anytime Cai ;)

I think I outdid myself yesterday LOL! It was quite simple actually, but really lovely. The table looked gorgeous (if I do say so myself) and the ILs were impressed :lol:. I used a beautiful tablecloth, my best glassware and cutlery, and a fair bit of my Wedgewood, Sarah's Garden. We had a nice, long, relaxed brunch, and it was devine :D I've resolved to entertain at breakfast time more often!

Hope everyone else enjoyed their yummies :)
