Back in Action

Hey Everyone, I'm back and ready to tell you more about my life of being a foodie!

As Easter comes closer my mind is focused on food more than usual.  Something about Easter just makes me so excited that I can't wait until I can indulge in the ham, broccoli puff, and all of the other great foods that my family makes.  On the note of keeping it in the family, recently I have been going out to eat a lot more, ultimately making me believe that the only way you are guaranteed a good meal is if you make it yourself!  When I was on Spring break I went to one of my favorite breakfast places, only to find myself leaving very disappointed.

When you think omelet you think 3 eggs, 2-3 toppings, and cheese.  Well this is exactly what I got, but in a gigantic form.  Usually I love being helpings, but this breakfast just over did it.  Not only did my omelet have about 3 pounds of cheddar cheese in it, but the veggies that I asked for to be included were exploding out of the omelet making it very difficult to eat as well as filling.  Now, when I eat my omelets I like to make them into omelet sandwiches, so I will take a big piece of my omelet and place it on top of my toast, fold it and there you have it.  For this dining experience it was very hard to make my omelet sandwich.  The omelet was so stuffed that it was hard to get all ingredients into one bite and the toast itself was drenched in butter, making the toast almost make the flavor of the omelet itself.  I can't forget to mention the insanely over sized home fries that came with my omelet.  They were so thick I could barely eat a third of what was on my plate.  The home fries themselves tasted more like a potato that you would serve with a dinner rather than a breakfast potato.

When it comes to breakfast I am very picky because you are starting off your day with this meal, so it has to be satisfying.  As I walked out of the restaurant I found myself missing something that I was hoping to get and that was satisfaction.  This dining experience is not to discourage those who love to eat out, but it is to inform them that sometimes home cooking is the only cooking that one should surround themselves with.

home is where the heart is, and the heart knows good food.
