While that looks great...this thread is a major league tease.  Where's the pic of that beautifully fried bacon sitting next to a fluffy mound of scrambled eggs and toast that's got pads of butter still melting on it?

You can't leave us hanging like this!

Wow that's some beautiful pork belly.  I'm going to need to find a better source for mine, they never look that good.  :)
