SERVES 4 – 6

You can spend a fortune on foie gras and oysters, but in my book there's no luxury greater than waking late to the aromas of coffee brewing and something delicious on the stove. This weekend, for a real indulgence, treat yourself-or someone you love-to a slow and lazy homemade breakfast. (And follow it up with a nap!)

	Johnnycakes Rhode Islanders believe it is stone-ground johnnycake meal that sets these griddle cakes apart.
	Country-Style Sausage with Fried Apples This recipe, adapted from American Cooking: Southern Style, embodies good ol' Southern cooking.
	Abbeville Omelette The original recipe for this omelette feeds the whole town of Abbeville, but this adaptation makes a more manageable portion.
	Smoked Trout Hash Serve this delicate hash on its own, or top it with a poached egg for a hearty breakfast or light supper.
	Loretta's Bloody Mary Sunday brunch—or the morning after a night of revelry—just wouldn't be the same without the tangy kick of a bloody mary.
