Hello.

Russell and I probably made 2 key errors in agreeing to participate in the Nom Nom Nom project:

1. We can't cook.

2. See above.

However, as we're both creative types we thought we'd try and do something interesting; see if we could, at least, get a laugh, without inducing projectile vomiting amongst the judges.

So. Instead of trying to compete on culinary skill, our 'Breakfast In Bed (Incomplete)' concept exists as merely that: a concept. (The reality was that we completely ran out of time and only were only able to cook some eggs and stuff.)

When we discovered that our original cunning plan to do a cooked breakfast was thwarted by the addition of breakfast aficionados Malcom Eggs and Mabel Syrup to the competition, we concluded that we should craft 4 unique 3 course breakfasts in bed, each one for a different person and each consisting of a cereal course, a fruit course and a main cooked course.

Here they are:

1. The 'Monocle'

For the discerning, Monocle reading minimalist, I give you the 'Monocle' breakfast.

Cereal Course: Shot of milk, shot of cereal.

Fruit Course: Dragon fruit.

Drink: Pom Juice.

Cooked Course: Nouvelle Cuisine Fried Breakfast, consisting of mini everything: sausage, fried quails egg, mini bacon, melba fried bread.

Location: To be eaten in a Hulsta bed

Soundtrack: Guitar Wolf

2. The 'Comedown'

For the raver, returning home from a long week of clubbing, here it is...the 'Comedown'

Cereal Course: Pop Tarts, in a toast rack.

Fruit Course: Fruit Pastilles.

Drink: Powerade.

Cooked Course: Two eggs, ketchup, arranged to make a smiley face on the plate

Location: Living room floor

Soundtrack: Groove Armada

3. The 'High Net Worth'

Millions in the bank, no time for dilly dally - here's the power brekkie that is...'High Net Worth'

Cereal Course: Oats. Because lunch is for wimps

Fruit Course: Grapefruit, sectioned by the butler

Drink: Champagne, freshly squeezed orange juice, Yakult

Cooked Course: Soft boiled eggs, soldiers, gentlemen's relish

Location: Daybed in the 'war room' of the office

Soundtrack: Miles Davis' Sketches of Spain

4. The 'Full Middle English'

2.4 children, the Daily Mail, doilies. Meet the 'Full Middle English'

Cereal Course: Cornflakes, ice cold milk

Fruit Course: Summer fruits

Drink: Earl Grey

Cooked Course: Scrambled eggs, bacon, roasted vine tomatoes, button mushrooms

Location: in the four poster, next to the wife (and dog)

Soundtrack: Holst's The Planets

This was the only meal we actually had time to cook, and I think it turned out quite well in the end, here it is:
