Another hot, sleepy day. It was close to 90 and my thinking slows to a crawl. The one interesting thing I remember from my day was at breakfast. I met my freind Ari for a working breakfast at his hotel.. the residence inn. The hotel had a nice breakfast spread.. and I hadn’t eaten.. so I paid for the otherwise free breakfast and dug in..

One thing I love about the Residence Inn breakfasts is that they always have jalapenos… I mean, what’sa breakfast without jalapenos.. Trouble is, I’m not a biig fan of scrambled eggs.. so what to do ?

Well.. they had a big vat of oatmeal next to some packets of ersatz maple syrup (how can you get away with Aunt Jemima’s in Vermont ?!?!? ) ..   So .. I says to myself.. self, I says.. Who says that otameal has got to be sweetened. ? I dollopped a double helping of oatmeal into my bowl and then added a double dose of black olives. jalapenos, slasa and nacho cheese drizzle..

Now .. THATS’s a breakfast.. !

So.. your homework for tonight is to try an unlikely combination of your own and report back to me on what you did and how it tasted.. eg. Chocolate ice cream and A1 sauce.. , macaroni and chocolate sauce.. whatever..   Just tell me what you tried..

Mmmm.. that’s makign me hungry.. better go cook.. what will it be ? hummus and choclate I think.

nite folks, nite sam
