I just had to laugh when I saw socialbtrfly’s post from a little while ago, because I *also* had a variation of “Green Eggs & Ham” for breakfast today!
My usual breakfast place had it on their ‘specials’ board for the first time this weekend, and will admit: I originally ordered them expecting something that would look “greener”, plus I thought it would make for an interesting breakfast post (yes, I ordered them mainly so I could post about it… a sure sign I’ve been here far too long!).
My variation was 3 eggs, scrambled with Baby Spinach, Scallions, diced Ham & Swiss Cheese. - It was really delicious, but I didn’t end up posting it earlier because of my disappointment over it not looking “cooler” visually… that was until I saw her post, and thought it was funny to see that I wasn’t the only one who decided to try Green Eggs & Ham for the first time today!

January 22nd, 2012 [Part 1]: After missing out both last weekend and yesterday, I did finally make it to my favorite breakfast spot, Nita’s, today!  

Here’s a lesson that I know thedeependofthepool will appreciate: *Always* be nice to your waitress! (and of course, “Don’t move your cup!”) …Because I go here ALL the time, and have built a great relationship with the waitresses, and the owners (-who also do all of the cooking), I was given an awesome, special breakfast this morning.  

My favorite omelet, the Tuscan, (Bacon, Basil, Tomato, & Fresh Mozzarella), wasn’t listed on the ‘Specials’ board this morning, so I began looking at the other specials on the board, and their new “Reese’s” pancakes (which was *STUFFED* with Chocolate & Peanut Butter Chips) caught my eye.  At the same time, when the owners saw me waiting to be seated, they told my waitress to let me know that even though my omelet wasn’t listed, that they still had the ingredients for it, and had saved enough in case I came in.

-All of this lead to the following conversation with my waitress when I was seated: [For full-effect, you should read her parts in a heavy Eastern-European accent, which she has…]
Her: Did you want your Tuscan?
Me: Oh, I didn’t think you had that today.
Her: Well, they told me they have enough for you, but it’s not up on the board.
Me: Hmm… When I didn’t see it I started looking at the new pancakes, the Reese’s ones… Hmm, now I’m not sure which one to get.
Her: Oooh! How about this, you could get the omelet, and instead of the toast and home fries, we can add the pancakes instead.
Me: [Dumbfounded] Wait, YOU CAN DO THAT?!!!   

…It was my most awesome breakfast EVER! - And, I made sure to give my waitress an even larger tip than usual! (- and I’m always very generous with my tips!)

[I tried uploading this via the Tumblr app over an hour ago, but it was being “difficult”…]
It’s been a while since I’ve posted any Breakfast “Food Porn”, so here’s the final one for 2011… They were all out of my usual favorite omelet, so today I tried a new one from the ‘specials’ board: a Turkey, Broccoli & Cheddar Omelet.
…And since I’m now posting this late (thanks to the App failure) and have already finished it, I can tell you all that it was absolutely delicious! :D

*Current Status*: Eggnog French Toast made with slices of French Bread & covered with candied pecans… and they’re absolutely delicious!  

Plus, it’s always nice when you’re such a good regular at a restaurant that they actually bring you over extra food on the side… This doesn’t usually come with home fries, but the cook (who’s also one of the owners) just brought over a plate of them because he made too much. - I love this place!

I haven’t ordered these in a while, but since it’s my Pre-Birthday weekend, and I have to work on my actual birthday Monday, and won’t be able to get a good breakfast that day:  it’s time for the Black Forest Crepes [stuffed with Nutella & covered with Sour Cherries] again! 

Now if you’ll excuse me, it’s time for a Food-GASM!!  YUM!!!

It’s been a while since I last posted any Breakfast “Food Porn”, mostly because I haven’t tried any new dishes lately, but here’s a new item on the specials menu:  Pumpkin Pancakes with Cranberry topping!  Yum!!!

Current Status: My usual breakfast place is closed this week for their annual vacation, so I had to go a different place… It’s okay, but not as great as my usual spot.
Next Up: Fighting off the crowds at Walmart, to hopefully pick up some storm supplies, since Irene will be hitting directly here in CT early tomorrow morning… Ugh!  (…I’m hoping to find some battery-based chargers for my phone, so I won’t be completely cut-off when the power goes out tomorrow.)
And if this day wasn’t crazy enough, I also have to go to a birthday party this afternoon for my six- (oops!) *five*-year-old great-nephew… Not sure which I’m dreading more: WalMart, the Hurricane, or the birthday party! :P

I couldn’t post my Breakfast ‘Food-Porn’ live today, because I went with my Dad, and didn’t want to be rudely typing the entire time -*but* I did manage to snap a photo for Tumblr before I devoured it!
This was the first time I’ve seen “Homemade Banana Bread French Toast” on their specials board, so of course I had to try it… It was absolutely incredible!
[NOTE: I also had a side of bacon, but by the time I realized I forgot to include it in the photo, it was already too late for the French Toast… My apologies for “failing you”, Tumblr! :P ]

Time for another late breakfast, and since it’s been awhile, here’s some new breakfast ‘food porn’ for you!

Currently enjoying the Baked Potato Omelet, which is stuffed with: Bacon, Broccoli, Scallions, Cheddar Cheese, Home Fries (on the *inside*!), and a dollop of Sour Cream on top… It also comes with a bowl of fresh fruit on the side (since the home fries are in the omelet)!

…Damn, I’m getting stuffed already!
