Breakfast on Christmas Day 2009 圣诞节早餐

Morning on Christmas Day started late. Breakfast seems realy enjoyable after a good night sleep.  This year I made breakfast first before I opened the gift from Santa Clause. If I would do the opposite way, it would be something different. I'll tell you why. So, first of all here is the breakfast we had. Nice and Simple...... That's the idea.

Christmas Day Breakfast Menu:
Homemade Scones (fry bread) with maple syrup
Homemade sausage patties
Fried eggs
Blueberry smoothie
Coffee
圣诞节的一天开始得比较晚, 早饭比较有胃口,今年我是先做的早餐,后拆礼物,如果先拆礼物后做早餐,吃的早餐就不会是象下面了,一会儿再说, 首先,来看看我做的早餐, 宗旨是简单又美味
圣诞节早餐菜单
家做的Scones (美式炸油饼) 配枫树糖浆
家做的香肠饼
煎鸡蛋
蓝莓冰沙
咖啡



Homemade Scones are made of basic sweet dough and fry in the oil. I posted before. 家做的Scones(美式炸油饼) 是用加了糖的发面做的,以前说过多次,这里不唠叨了


Here is another picture.再看一次, 油炸的东西不常做, 偶而做一次, 很好吃的.


Homemade sausage patties and fried eggs: 家做的香肠饼和煎鸡蛋
Homemade sausage is made of ground pork with salt, herbs, wine and sugar.家做的香肠饼主要是原料是猪肉馅,盐,香料,酒,和一点糖.


In my plate: 我的盘子里的东东


Another one: 再看一眼.
 

After breakfast, it is the time to open the gifts from Santa Clause. He asked me if I got tied of Christmas. Usually I ran down stairs to open the gift first before breakfast. This year, I had patient and waited after breakfast. Any way, there were so many gifts that can't hide under the tree... from designer clothing, electronics, books, money, etc., too many. I know I was spoiled rotten....
早餐过后该开礼物了,他问我是不是对圣诞节的新鲜感过去了,我问他为什么这样说, 他说通常我都是早餐前自己先跑到楼下开礼物, 今年我一直等到早餐后才开礼物... 哈,我只是不好意思让别人饿肚子而已... 太多礼物了, 我知道我被宠坏了......


Too many gifs I had. Here just couple.... New Year comes with new laws. We are not allowed to hold a cel phone any more while driving. I refuse to ware an ear plug/blue tooth thing. It makes people look like Aliens. I hate it. Well, I found this on our Christmas tree....
从我喜欢的designer 衣物,手提包, electronics,书,到现金,太多了, 就看这两样吧.
新年到, 新法律也开始实施了,如今开车禁止用手提电话,必须用耳机/blue tooth ,我最恨的就是移动耳机/blue tooth ,戴上去象外星人,丑死了. 今年圣诞节我从圣诞树上摘到了这个...


It is an adaptor for my SUV. It is a nice one to fit our "complicated life" nowadays. So, I don't have to look like an Alien. ha....
这个可以安装在我的SUV上, 我就不用戴耳机象外星人了.... 说来我们现代人的"繁忙生活节奏", 挺可怜的...


Here is a tool that relates with the cooking. I like waffles for breakfast once a while in the restaurant. They are good. But for some reason, I never thought about to buy a waffle maker. I don't know why. Until the Christmas day... 
This 4-slice waffle maker from All-clad is heavy duty model. I got hard time to guess what was in the box with Christmas wrapping paper. It will add to my All clad collection in my kitchen. Now you understand why we would have something else for the breakfast if I would open the gifts first before making the breakfast.... :-) What a Christmas! I surely had a wonderful Christmas!
这个和我的圣地厨房有关. 我喜欢吃waffles, 我也不知道为什么一直都没有个机器,大概没看好的, 直到今年的圣诞节....
这个4块waffles机器是 ALL CLAD 做的,经久耐用型的, 很重,拆包装纸之前怎么也没想到是这个东西, 这个可以加入我的ALL CLAD 的收藏系列中. 这就是为什么我说如果先拆礼物后做早餐, 圣诞节节的早餐就不是上面的样子了. 我的圣诞节过的特别愉快, 和往常一样!
 

At last, let's have some homemade eggnog. He made it with COGNAC and bourbon . I can't stop licking it.
最后,让我们品尝一杯咱家那位做的 eggnog. 加了COGNAC不得和 bourbon. 很不错, 很有味道, 就是喝多了会飘起来...


Christmas doesn't have eggnog is not real Christmas!
真的, 没有eggnog 的圣诞节不是真正的圣诞节!
