Poor Marge. She tries so hard to make homemaking seem like a fulfilling career path…until she realizes she has to deal with the likes of Homer and Bart. One must wonder exactly how many Creative Homemaking Breakfast plates she has made over the years that have been completely disregarded and eaten without comment. Much like that dead cat from an inspirational poster, this post is becoming depressing. Hang in there baby!
Ingredients
- 2 Eggs
- 1 Slices of Bacon
- 1 Piece of Toast
- Parsley (or something leafy and green for the nose)
Directions
Place toast in the toaster and begin frying eggs and bacon. Cook eggs sunny side up and arrange on a plate with eggs for “eyes” and bacon for “mouth”. Cut toast across and place on plate as “ears”. Complete dish by using parsley (or something leafy and green) for “nose”. Serve to oblivious family and secretly hate your life a little.
Based on the Creative Homemaking Breakfast screen shot ,it would appear that Marge uses parsley for the “nose” on the breakfast face. I didn’t feel like buying parsley only to use a single sprig to use in this recipe. Instead I used what I had on hand, a pea shot, which I feel is close enough. Overall, this breakfast dish is pretty underwhelming. Two eggs but only ONE piece of bacon? Come on Marge. Maybe if you stepped up your bacon portion sizes – with a bacon man living in a bacon house – things might not be so bleak around the Simpson household.
