getting good at breakfast

so, this past weekend, i decided to make breakfast for the lady. and on all accounts it turned out beautifully delicious. i sliced yukon gold potatoes, marinated them with olive oil, rosemary, salt, pepper and red chili flakes, and then layered them in a skillet. it was a test of patience, but it paid off. i didn't move the potatoes at all. and towards the end added a splash of chicken stock to help steam and cook through all the potato layers. the bottom layer got super crispy and delicious. i also made a cheese omelet that was just cheesy enough and fluffy and not runny at all. i seem to have gotten really good at making omelets recently. before this, my omelets always turned into scrambles. i topped it all off with some crispy bacon. i don't have any pictures this time, but i'll be sure to take some next time.
