T.P. Egg's Benedict Breakfast

[Debbiefromtucson]

I would be willing to move Bloody's to Tuesday.... ............

[Debbiefromtucson]

Actually, I take that back... I think that would be too much on Tuesday.. Pastries etc followed by beer tasting followed by Oysters.....followed by Tropical tuesday...................... I think we'd all be sick by wed...

Ron, you know we LOVE you and we especially LOVE Deb but could you do this in the afternoon after breakfast as Tom suggested???? or how about an early vows like on Monday before things get realy hectic??? or Sunday???

[lalagay]

Right, I'm up for this 
Pastries + eggs benedict + whatever people fancy cooking for breakfast = one big happy TP morning 
I don't know how we're going to work out a date, I arrive on Monday, hopefully not too jet lagged  and I'm not sure at what time as my initial ride from Grand Junction has fallen through (I've posted on the hitch a ride section again, if you're coming that way keep in touch  )
I don't know how operational I'll be by tuesday morning (I'm having to turn my body clock back 6 hours plus get my head around mountain air), and you do need a fair amount of energy for pastry preparation, so I'm more of a wednesday taker, I bet that doesn't help!!!!   
Whatever happens, I'm just looking forward to enjoying the morning with you all and I'm sure we'll find a way to make it happen

Ok Fine
I give up
Well just do our own Eggs Beni on Tuesday morning
and yall can do the group feed on Wed, I just wont be able to help
But the Jailhouse boys have access to the WanderIn Kitchen

That's the spirit.
Besides, if we do it Wednesday we may still have enough food in our belly to be able to handle the rum balls a lot better.

Travelling west is relatively easy.  You'll be ready to passout by 6 in the evening, so take that into consideration getting into TP.  On the plus side, you'll be wide awake by 5am.  You can sleep more to adjust to time, which will also help w/ getting used to the altitude.

The tough part is travelling East, especially when combined with after-festival withdrawls.

Hippie Jerry suggested a "progressive breakfast".  That's a very good idea.  Maybe 2 or 3 camps involved.
Run-A-Muck always has coffee on for folks who want to hang-out at our camp and watch the tarp-run each morning of the festival.  If other camps or other people want to use the Run-A-Muck kitchen to cook breakfast for the festivarians who view the "running of the tarps"  from our campsite, you'd be more than welcome.  Every morning of the festival there's always  a lot of folks visiting our camp... why not cook them eggs benny?

P.S.  Ron - you know you can't make it to every party in Town Park... but I know you're gonna try!

Thanks for the advice AnythingAtAll, it's more or less my plan to stay awake during my flight over, and then crash out in GJ on the sunday night and sleep as much as possible to wear off the jet lag before I get to TBF, but as I've never experienced jet lag before I don't know how I'll take it...

And Ron, I'm sorry you got overruled on that one  , but I'm sure there'll be plenty of other activities you can take part in, I can even make a special pastry for you and Deb for when you get back if you like...

Hey Lala, has it been decided where you are doing the pastries? I would need to know where I am delivering the few pieces of equipment and spices to.
Love your idea of a Ron n Deb anniversary pastry!

  Good morning Useless...

Do ou guys deal with organic vanilla extract or beans?

[UselessJo]

Good morning Hippie, that is a question for Jo (Kim). I'll have her respond soon. I'm the cooking equipment guy.

No sir....

General info.  Most spices (not herbs), including vanilla beans (Madagascar) come from equatorial countries...mostly 3rd world places.  Although I'm sure there is a market out there, most of those growers are just concerned about growing a healthy crop,getting it to market and turning a buck.  Herbs can be grown in temperate climates, ie; grown in the good ol US of A where the farmers may be more inclined to take the time, and investment to produce an organic product.  If someone is touting that their vanilla is organic, I would be very suspicious as even in Mexico, they don't have an organization overseeing the production and labeling processes like we do here.

Capiche?

Totally Capiche friend.
I am a reformed backyard organic gardener. Had a market garden with 1/4 acre of non psychadelic herbs and veggies in the early 80s. It was really hard to market since we were all doing the same thing back in those days.

I now only grow a few crops that are completely suited to my microclimate, strictly for personal consumption only.

I'm still looking for organic vanilla beans/extract 

How many more days was that again?

Thought we were adding a mast feed breakfast to the Town Park early campers. I was going to go "easy and quick", but if it all needs to be organic, I'm okay with that and will make the menu adjustments. Just let me know where we all, Muck and WI, want to that this. Great idea, Let's get on the same sheet music and go forward. I know I'm not going to be running and tossing a tarp on Wednesday! Muck does way too much, so maybWander-In on the main path is the place for a buffet breakfast?
Carolyn, Tom, Hippie, Carlos, Stevie (no..scratch that one!), Ellen, Evil James...How do we want to make this happen, and like we have do this for TP for years?!
Should be fun, and I think a great addition to the prefest activities. I know, with all the excitement of the TBF, there are alot of folks that will love, and need. a good breakfast after Tuesday night!
Thoughts? Them's mine!
