Away too long

So, contrary to less than popular thought, I survived the holidays.  Had a career change at the end of the year by choice and have been trying to get the new business up and running (which is an ongoing project).  I have also had the time to putter about with all sorts of projects in the kitchen.  The holidays made two fabulous additions to the kitchen - a 4 qt. covered saucepan (Tramontina Tri-Ply clad, an affordable All-Clad clone) and an 8" chefs knife from IKEA (very sharp and extremely affordable). 

Of late I've been on an English-style breakfast kick of late (not certain why, but it is somewhat more tasty than the US version).  I've been trying to clone the UK Heinz beans to some success but not close enough.  I am starting another batch this week and will post a recipe later.  I also have put some English-style bacon in cure today (and will follow up with a recipe soon).
