A HEARTy Breakfast

Happy Valentines Day everyone.

For breakfast I tried to make everything heart-shaped.
The bacon was the hardest.
Next year I think I'll cook actual heart meat. 
That way, it won't matter what shape it's in.

  1. I actually shuddered and heaved at the thought of waking up Valentine Morn to lovingly cooked heart meat...
    I could write something witty and clever but instead I choose to be boring and practical...why not ham cut in the shape of a heart? It would be less revolting...

  2. But would you EAT the heart meat? Because THAT would be love, man. (Or....something else entirely.)

    I put you on my blog list, you are great!

  28. Couldn't you do canadian bacon cut out like a heart?!?

    ReplyDelete
  29. Please don’t serve heart next year, it’s supposed to look like a coronary, not give one! Lol. Besides, I think the true question at hand is this: how do you get your bacon so deliciously crispy? Seriously, do tell!

    ReplyDelete
  30. Off topic, but have you tried Dirty Lickins chicken in Aiea? It's in the Aiea mall or whatever, by the bowling alley. We left the island last year and all I can think about is this chicken!

    ReplyDelete
  31. How about cutting some SPAM into a heart shape? Course it is not actually 'good' for your heart but...

    Aloha and good morning Jorge.

    ReplyDelete
  32. If you want to cook some heart these little suckers are right tasty. Marinated meat on a skewer? There's no way to go wrong.

  33. we accidentally ate only pink food: steak, beet salad, and blueberry crisp. soooo romantic.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Oh Jorge! Nice try anyway....

    I own a bakery and we did some neat things: caramel drizzle hearts on the pumpkin scones, pink cream cheese icing for the cinnamon buns, chocolate hearts on the chocolate hearts, etc... Twas a hit with all! Please drop by if yr ever in Canadaland, I've seen Evie come in before...

  35. What a sweet and romantic gesture!! I'm sure Bethany appreciated it.

    (I, too, found your blog through Cake Wrecks. I just read every single post - yeah, I'm a loser! - and I'll be adding you to my blog list. I heart LOST, and I totally heart Hurley ;-) )

    ReplyDelete
  36. Very sweet! Hope you two had a great Valentine's Day!

  37. G'day,
    Just spent a chunk of the morning reading your blog - so delightful to read about gingerbread houses, pumpkin carving and Paris.
    You can get silicon egg rings in heart shapes, but I'll bet someone's already told you that.
    See ya
    Pauline
    Also got here through Cake Wrecks.
    Now, what was I SUPPOSED to be doing today?

  39. jajajajaja, muy buena foto.

    "Full stomach, happy heart"
    o
    "panza llena, corazón contento" jajaja

    primera vez que paso a firmar, pero visito el blog seguido.
    I post for first time. I usually visit your blog.

    sorry for my english. I'm argetinian.

  40. Have you considered the options of a heart based organ-meat breakfast?

    You could get a beef heart and stuff it with chicken hearts...mmm, heart surprise!

    Turducken Heart... a chicken heart in a duck heart in a turkey heart.

    My personal favorite would be serving a bowl of deep fried chicken hearts, crisp and puffy like Heart Crispies. Just add milk.

  41. Jorge,
    Do you think you could give my husband some pointers in the romance department? Hee Hee.

    The cutesy hearts are so much more desirable than the real thing. I'm thinking about the cardiac exam I took last week in nursing school. Blech!

    ReplyDelete
  42. That was great, Jorge! Not long ago, I accidentally made a chicken breast in the shape of Texas (which is where I'm from originally.) My mom, who lives in Texas, always jokes that nothing is made in the shape of Illinois (where my husband is from.)

    It wasn't as cool as having a tortilla with a picture of the Virgin Mary on it, but it really did look like Texas! :)

    ReplyDelete
  43. Yes, the bacon is the heartest to do.

    ReplyDelete
  44. I have just found out about your blog and I'm totally addicted! I can't wait to see more of your posts and to keep updated with the real hurley.

    When I was in middle school a friend of ours would let us hang out at her house behind the neighborhood pool every morning before the pool opened. We would play various board games and such but what I remember most, was she would put food coloring in our pancakes and make fun shapes out of them. This made me think of that.

    I made my wife a hot chocolate tonight with our newly used espresso machine and put a heart in the froth using some of the chocolate from the milk. It's fun to make shapes out of food and drinks.

    ReplyDelete
  45. That's adorable.

    I think heart meat would be rather tough and gamy, but hey, people do eat it. See also: haggis.

    Happy belated Valentine's Day!

    ReplyDelete
  46. Aw, that was so sweet! Maybe you should give my hubby some tips, although I won't eat eggs no matter what shape they are in!

    ReplyDelete
  47. Very cute. Next year I think you should do sausage in the shape of a heart (jimmy dean style of course) along with pancakes in the shape of a heart (use a cookie cutter to shape)
    and the hashbrowns someone else mentioned - easy to heart shape.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Oh my gosh, that's cuteness overload for me!!

    ReplyDelete
  49. You are my new hero. I'm so excited to discover your blog. Happy Valentine's day.

    ReplyDelete
  50. That breadstick (a breadstick?) looks obscene, man. But it's the thought that counts. ;)

    Happy Belated Valentines Day!

    ReplyDelete
  51. now, if you could just make that all up into a heart-croissanwich. You'd give BK a run for their money!

  52. Hey jorge, if you want to cook perfectly heart-shaped eggs, use this :

  53. The link to the egg ring was good. I was going to suggest you find a large heart-shaped cookie cutter for the same purpose.

    ReplyDelete
  54. Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm... Breakfast
    delicious!!! Kissesssssssssss =)

    ReplyDelete
  55. your heart shaped eggs cracked me up! cracked...ahahahahah!

  56. Awwww. Now that's what I call a heartfelt breakfast! Heart meat, however, sounds a bit frightening...

  57. In spite of the fact that many critics comment on ed hardy clothing as nothing but tattoo pattrens, being full of unnecessary and useless things, ed hardy clothes is widely acknowledged that ed hardy shirts draws the most attention of both common young people as well as many Hollywood welcomed stars for its punk rock styles. In fact, in today’s world, many ed hardy t-shirtsdesigns are more or less the same with each othre, and ed hardy mens and ed hardy womens , absolutely, brings a totally new shock in the fashion world for its design being out of ordinary ed hardy sunglasses.

  58. In 1981, ed hardy and his wife formed Hardy Marks Publications. In 2004, Christian Bale licensed the rights to produce the high-end Ed Hardy UK line, which is based on Hardy's imagery. Prior to the ed hardy clothing line, Bale was the Head Designer at Von Dutch Originals, which marketed the imagery of Kenny Howard. Don ed hardy, commented, As demand for my artwork continues to skyrocket, I felt it was ed hardy clothing time to take on a partner that could help me manage the demand and opportunities for the ed hardy T-shirts name. Iconix is at the forefront of brand management and clearly has the capabilities to dramatically grow the Ed Hardy UK business. I'm thrilled to have them as a partner. Cheap Ed Hardy are located in everywhere. We also believe that by owning the brand alongside ed hardy clothing, the founder, there will be opportunities to further leverage his iconic name along with his new artwork.
