Yep, just an average American breakfast... |
Ah, this brings back such fond memories of my childhood in the United States. I'd climb out of bed, put my pajamas in the hamper, throw on some clothes, and rush downstairs, heady with the smells of a home-cooked typical American breakfast:
- 3 scrambled or fried eggs
- poultry sausage
- potato pancakes
- bacon or smoked salmon
- baked beans
- coleslaw
- french toast
- BBQ sauce
- fresh fruit salad
- two pancakes with chocolate syrup and pancake syrup
- fresh orange juice
- a choice of hot drinks
Really? This is what French people think we eat for breakfast?? I know some of us are heavy, but sheesh.
Okay, a "real" American breakfast is more along the lines of two eggs and some sausage or bacon. (On the weekends we might have pancakes or french toast). Of course, by Parisian standards that's still a LOT, as a breakfast in France is usually:
- a plain croissant
- a cup of coffee
- a cigarette
