skive med pålegg

I moved from having bake and saltfish with orange juice or smoked herring (thoroughly cooked) and fry bake, or just the good ole corn flakes and milk... to having Skive med pålegg. Mind you this is pronounced for us good ole english/ trini folk as shiva meh pohrleg. If you are still unsure.. its just 1 slice of bread with something ontop. Of course why we can't put TWO slices of bread with something inbetween is beyond me... so here i am trying to balance things on ONE slice of bread like smoked trout.... yes ... trout that looks basically raw. I can't really complain about the taste ... i'm just waiting for the great side effects this much fish oils should bring me. Then you have interesting pastes ... cuz who wants to put all the things together from scratch ???

So you have shrimp paste which is like diced up shrimp with mayonaise, you have like a liver paste ... and some other interesting things.... Pancakes are NOT breakfast ... it is a crime to have anything sweet for breakfast ..except orange juice ... and coffee mind u .. is not usually taken with milk or even sugar.

Nope breakfast is not for the sweet tooth ... so all those things we have for continental breakfast like croissants and buns are forbidden.

Lunch by the way is ALSO 1 slice of bread with a topping... Dinner I suppose is where it all happens and its usually done early ..like around 4 pm ... but that's another blog .. because it is serious business!!!

so Whey Yuh Say? .. Skive med pålegg anyone??
