Oh, my God! You just rescued me! I’ve gone without bacon (on its own and in favorite US recipes) for FOUR YEARS now! My French husband just has never been able to help me find the word for what I keep trying to describe to him. His closest rendition was “lard”… that proved disastrous at the boucherie! I had almost given up until I finally found this article. I’m off to the shops to ask for de la barde right away! If I’m lucky, we’ll be having Pacific-Northwest Clam Chowder the way mom used to make it, TONIGHT! Thanks again!

Southern Fried Eggs "Benedict" Fried egg, sausage, biscut and country gravy. I challenge you to find a flaw.

hi rowena! actually, those bottles are filled with different flavored limonade sounds like lemonade but it’s not at all that. they’re carbonated, more like italian sodas!

i think i’ll make pancakes tomorrow. do you know how to make portuguese sausage??

First of all, what are those pretty colored bottles up top? Bubble bath? Or syrup for snow cones?! I like coming here and getting a surprise everytime!

American breakfasts…hmmmm, I’m afraid I’ve lost the taste for them and just do the ‘italian thing’ with a quick shot of espresso and maybe a biscotto or brioche. But what I’d give for some hawaiian portuguese sausage, fried rice, 2 eggs sunny-side up and a HUGE cup of american dirty water coffee!

Your sentiment on cassoulet had me laughing so hard. I actually LOVE that stuff but would NEVER attempt eating it at 10pm! Better for breakfast..

kat, it was always worth the wait at eggs n things, tho. i loved the coconut syrup there and the portuguese (my mom calls it poe CHEE ghee) sausage and rice. hopefully, i’ll get back over there sometime soon. thanks for the tip, too.

angry, you should come visit and i’ll make you a manly breakfast, very unfrench style.
