Really high heat, a generous amount of oil (or butter) underneath so they don’t stick – they basically almost float as they cook. Coconut oil doesn’t exist here, so no, haven’t used it.

We’re reserving judgment on brunch. We did have a good time, no question, but whether it’s a financially and mentally viable alternative remains to be seen – it basically means giving up the Saturday night beforehand if I want to get any sleep – and getting up early so that I can be cooking by about 8 a.m.

Since Thesis has a built in comment subscription, didn’t see any reason to add an additional plugin. I use Bad Behavior as my spam catcher, I tried Askimet, but this seems to work better.

I’ve been using Atahualpa but the Thesis gets lots of good feedback, too. I also use “Comment Luv” and “Subscribe to Comments” plug-ins if you are interested. Found those through my RealFoodMedia group. Also Askimet, of course! Great spam catcher.

Can you tell me how you fry your eggs so they come out like that? I can get the crispy bottom, but then the tops are too done. They look yellow and runny on top, but cooked almost all the way through.

Also, we have been using unrefined coconut oil to cook — it is so good! Do you use that ever? (I don’t always read the recipes… sometimes I just look at the pictures and dream, lol!)

I’d still have a conversation with her over a plate of huevos rancheros….
