Let's Take This Outside!

One recent summer Sunday morning, the backyard looked so inviting that we decided to head outdoors for breakfast. Nothing beats bacon and eggs cooked over a fire - or, in this case, in a big skillet on a vintage plaid grill!

On the left is a Skotch grill and on the right, we have a Grillryte. The Skotch grill has seen quite a bit of action on picnic-y outings, but this was the maiden voyage of the Grillryte. Don't you think plaid makes everything more fun?

Of course, coffee is a must for Sunday morning breakfast! Since we haven't yet acquired a swell campfire coffee pot, the Sunbeam vacuum pot will have to do.



Now, once we get some good coals, we'll start cookin'!
Careful, dearest, don't burn yourself - I don't think we have any Unguentine...


The bacon's sizzling and the bread is toasting - won't be long now....


Finally we're ready to fry some eggs - hope I don't break a yolk! Connncentraaate...


And before long
, we've got a mighty fine backyard Sunday breakfast. Don't be shy, just grab a plate and dig in!


Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but nobody said it couldn't be the most fun too!

Here's to breakfast in the great outdoors...
