Pet Peeve #842: People that complain about my stuff.
Ok.... rules to live by: If I invite you over for breakfast...
Do not complain about the way I cook my bacon. Unlike my steak, I actually cook my bacon all the way through, but I like it to be chewy. Not break my teeth. You are eating my food, please deal with it.
Do not stand over my shoulder and tell me how to cook. I have been cooking bacon since I was four, I'm sure I can figure it out.
Do not complain about the amount of grease in the pan.... there are papertowels for you to use on your bacon if you feel like it. Grease makes it taste better.
Do not complain about the eggs. I love eggs scrambled in bacon grease, and I will fry or scrable yours as you want them... but don't complain abut mine.
Do not complain about the fat content of breakfast. I seldome eat a real breakfast, and therefore, I want to make mine good. Fat is good.
Do not complain about the lack of beverage choices. This is not Waffle House. I have milk, and water.
Never, ever, under any circumstances, use soap to take the grease off of my cast iron skillet. Soap is for plates, and forks, and glasses.... and should only be used on cast iron sparingly.... like to take spagetti sauce out. Not to take grease out. Grease is what makes cast iron work.
*sigh* Ok, I feel better.
