Every time I see this thread, I think back to my childhood and momma's fine breakfast feasts. Hot grits from local grown and water ground yellow corn, sausages(ham or bacon) made from the hogs we grew, scrambled eggs from the chickens on the yard, milk and home made butter from the milk cows in the pasture, big old hot bisquits made with Southern Mills flour home made butter milk and full of home made lard baked just right.
....then I'd fill the hot grits with salt, pepper and butter.....stir until well mixed, then chop up the eggs and sausages(ham or bacon) and mix it all together. A spoonful of mix, a bite of bisquit and wash it all down with a cold glass of fresh non homogenized, non pasteurized milk. Then topped off with several bisquits filled with home made butter and home made jelly, jam, perserves.
Couldn't gain an ounce back then but I gained three pounds just now just thinking about it.
