When I wake up I am so confused, my body isnt slowly rocking in the waves but my equilibrium is. I had a little nap and when I woke up on the couch I couldnt figure out how my television got on the ship.
The butter was carved up all over the place, mermaids and cowboys and lovely kissing doves.
Endless cakes and pastries were lurking around every corner.
Big black birds with big black beaks would let you know who is boss so dont leave your plates unattended!
Eggs benedict 'Southwest Style' - dream on if you think we had these on the ship, I made these so that I could get back to 'reality'. Fresh, homemade gordita corn tortillas with home fries and red chile hollandaise- thats what I'm talkin' about!
I dont want to create any doubt in your mind - I make better eggs benedict than Holland America!

the last shots of the eggs made me want some! I've never had that style of eggs!
wow I love those eggs! You trip looks so amazing!
You're a bunch of time zones ahead now, so you'll probably be messed up for a couple of days. Did you gain a ton of weight - or, more likely, did your poor wife and sisters gain the weight - with all that delectable food there? I'm sure the pup will think fondly of this trip for decades to come.
Sounds like an awesome trip,with awesome food!!!
oneshot: give them a try - in fact use some of that tasty salsa you made
zoe: it was a nice time - I will be posting about it in drips and drabs this whole week.....just a heads up...LOL
marjie: 4 hours ahead to be precise - no weight gain although we did get bloated - all the carbs and salts...
sweta: endless food to be exact - we tumbled from meal to snack to meal....
Not a doubt in my mind! They look amazing :) (but that view...wow!)
It sounds like the cruise was fun and beautiful... almost as beautiful as that amazing plate of perfectly cooked eggs and a fantastic SW hollandaise sauce. That, seriously, is my idea of the perfect breakfast.
Breakfast? Hell no, I want that for dinner.
You ate very well on the cruise! Next time pls count me in, haha.
Did you really use the butter from the butter sculptures, they are so beautifully carved, I wouldn't wanna ruin them. ^^
wow wow the click are fantastic... missed some of ur post all these days... the butter carving is looking awesome... your trip looks so amazing
girli: the views were breathtaking and endless
pam: I would have to agree
micky: time to figure out how to dehydrate stuff for you
kenny: It looked like butter but I think it was wax....
pavithra: it was an awesome trip - I recommend it.
I didn't know that you make your own gordita's. I can't beleive it, you never cease to amaze me, that is why you are the king of the hill! Don't close your eyes in the shower until you get your land legs back!
Oh, I have no doubt that your eggs are far, far better, dog ... especially with that hollandaise. Wow!
My stars, the scenery and the buffet are quite spectacular! What a wonderful trip ... I've always wanted to take that particular cruise. So nice to share it here. :)
I am sure you are a much better chef but geez those pictures look yummy! I have never been on a cruise but think I might have to go!
snugs: you name it I can probably make it - today feels a tad more 'normal'
diva: we had the weather of a lifetime - lucky lucky lucky
cg: the cakes and pastries were better than I can make thats for sure - maybe I should work on that...
haha the ravens stole your food? ravens are great here they chase bald eagles away literally pulling out their feathers. When in all reality the bald eagle could eat a raven in about 2 bites. Love the butter carvings.
Wow that's a lot of butter!!! I can just imagine all the recipes I can make with those sculptures.
Awesome view from the deck. I feeling like taking a cruise now. Plus I'm craving for egg benedict, too!!
I never doubted it for an instant...red chile hollandaise. My God! I'm not sure if you drink wine or not, but did you see the new widget on my sidebar that pairs wine with food. It's cool. Kangaroo is one of the food items. Do people eat kangaroo??!!
I got all excited...I thought they served that on the cruise!
I love the butter mermaid!
omg. those poaches eggs are perfection!
I can't wait for my vacation!! (which isnt until September...)
Wow I'm speechless! What a fantastic cruise! The butter carvings look fabulous. Had never seen like this before! And the pastries n food look awesome :)
Laura: they didnt steal mine but they did get others....the big hooked beak looked a little intimidating
jenn: it was my first time and I would consider doing it again
jill: I will check out that widget and yes people do eat kanagroo - I havent had it but I heard its good
TBD: that would have been nice to have some chile on the cruise - the butter carvings were really cool
LK: are you going on a cruise?
pooja: wait till you see the fruit carvings....
that was a great trip i guess....and the food is really fantastic....looks so appealing!!!
It all looks so amazing! My husband and I have been wanting to take a cruise from Seattle to Alaska, and our friends who've gone said it's absolutely beautiful. After reading this, we definitely have to go! :)
Gorgeous pictures - including the eats - spicy hollandaise rocks!
Those are stunning,stunning pictures!
That is some impressive food - I want those butter sculptures . . . !
