Omelets here. I read about all this fancy cooking and feel terribly inadequate.

Oh, I can do that fancy stuff but I'm basically a country cook. I learned how to make really big full meals that we used to then pack up and haul out to the wheat fields for the men.

We didn't just take sandwiches out to those guys, we made roast beef with mashed potatoes and gravy, fried chicken and potato salad, pork roast with cabbage and carrots, etc. Plus desserts.

I've had a hankering for bierocks though. I might have to break down and make them although even with using frozen bread dough they take the better part of a half-day. We used to make them in the summer and the watermelon would be in season.

Bierocks and watermelon are forever linked together as compatible in my culinary memories, LOL
