Peanut butter cheesecake

Topped with Reece. I did not make it. It's rich, tastes delicious, causing me to quit after only a few bites and make me think of Eddie Murphy's old Ice Cream song skit:

...You don't have no peanut butter cheescake

You didn't get none! You didn't get none!

Cos you are on the welfare, you can't afford it.

He-who-pays-the-bills wanted one of my monster omelets this morning. Who am I to argue since I traded a stack of empty egg cartons for 18 farm fresh eggs a few days ago??? Now I am FAR from being a morning person but I managed to get everything cut up without losing any fingers.....

I use a 100+ year old bottom gatemarked griddle to do the eggs. Whisk them up & pour them on & put a lid over it & let them cook til they're solid.....

Slide the eggs off onto a plate & top 'em off with all the fillings....

The I toss the whole thing in the microwave just long enough to melt the cheese. And today I decided to do something different & top the whole shebang with a big dollop of guacamole....

We probably won't eat again until supper tonight.... lol!

Cut a napa cabbage for dinner today.

Cabbage was fried in bacon grease and when it was half done I pitched in a handful of little smokies. Had some extra sharp white cheddar sticks, and buttermilk cornbread made from Gourdseed cornmeal to go along with it.

I use a few hot sauces but Texas Pete is a staple.

I really like Texas Pete and Frank's.

Texas Pete is my favorite but I bet I have ten different kinds ranging from mild tapito all the way to full stupid hot that was a gift.

If you've never had napa/Chinese cabbage, it's a little milder and more tender than regular cabbage.

I’ve never had it. If I was to pick some out at grocery store is there any markers as to quality? Is it heavy like regular cabbage or does that matter?

Yes, it should be heavy and firm.

I use one of those flat iron skillets every morning to cook my sausage, old ham or bacon on and when that is finished, I cook my eggs.
It does make a mess sometimes, but I can flip my eggs over easy a lot better with that skillet.
I also have a bigger one that we use when we cook homemade pancakes.

I like em but much prefer Sriracha over any other. It lacks the vinegar taste most hot sauces have. I picked up a bottle of trappeys red devil cayenne pepper sauce the other day and am liking it real well
