Inspiring images, to say the least. I have always wanted to make some bratwurst. I'll look up some recipes, are there any tips you might add. Also I had occasion recently to eat those dry sausages you find in meat stores over in Switzerland and Germany...I can't think of their name, I sure would like to make them!

The term I've used/seen used is "landjagers" for the dry sausages.

There are lots of recipes on line for sausage. Seasoning Mixes are available in many places. Brats are supposed to be made with veal but one recipe I had suggested using bacon as a substitute. It works great! Bacon makes everything better!!

Greek Easter Bread

The whole house is permeated with the aroma of Tsuoreki. or Greek Easter Bread. My bread machine makes a fantastic loaf of this sweet cake/bread.

Tomato side dish

Nothing super great for dinner tonight, but this side dish is quick, easy and tasty. Perfect for hot days, too. It has an Asian flare, but will probably go well with just about anything.

Slice the tomato and lay the slices out on a plate. Drizzle with vinager (I've used apple cider and on a different occasion rice vinegar; apple cider is better IMO). Then drizzle with soy sauce, then two to three or so drops of sesame oil per slice. Sprinkle with pepper (I used black pepper).

You can serve right away, or let sit for about 15 minutes.

I have also made this with firm avacado added into the mix and marinated for about 30 minutes.

Had me an Everything Bagel with cream cheese, fresh black pepper, and thinly sliced smoked pacific Salmon. And some Macallan 12 year old scotch. Manliest bagel ever, and absolutely delicious.

A full English breakfast

Two rashers of "back bacon", two sausage links, two "over easy" eggs, Heinz baked beans, one grilled tomato, and two slices of buttered toast. Unfortunately, I'm not going to be able to once again enjoy this wonderful dish from my time across the pond in its authentic entirety until I can locate a grocery store or deli that sells "back bacon"... Until then, I'll have to stick with the "streaky" style we have here.
