Thoughts That Come to Me Over Breakfast

"A street-cart recipe goes like this: beat an egg. Finely chop whatever vegetables you like — carrot, cabbage, and so on — and mix them into the egg. (...) Sprinkle on some sugar (lol) and finish with ketchup." (#thoughtsthatcomeoverbreakfast, p.66) "The moment I've thought through tomorrow's breakfast before bed, peeked in the fridge, finished my simple prep, washed up, and lain down in bed — that's when I finally feel the day is truly over, and it makes me happy. I hope tomorrow morning I can start the day just as lightly, in the very same mood. Good night, so it can be a good morning." (#thoughtsthatcomeoverbreakfast, p.187) For office workers and students racing against the clock, I think #streettoast counts as #morningcomfort. Standing steadfastly on the way to work, it always delivers the carbs (bread) and protein (egg) you need to get through the day. And of course, what really completes the flavor of street toast is the sugar and ketchup. *From time to time I'd like to talk about breakfast I come across in books, films, or elsewhere — not just the breakfast I make every morning.
