english breakfast

on monday morning we headed over to the york auction house (where they auction off livestock to farmers) to eat a traditional english breakfast. it is definitely nothing like breakfast in hawaii.

one egg, a sausage, bacon, a hashbrown, beans, tomatoes [which was essentially a pile of tomato sauce, i wasn't really sure what to do with this], mushrooms [which magically did not end up on my plate and therefore spared me the embarrassment of shoveling a whole pile of mushrooms off to the side], and black pudding [that is the black circular slice of sausage in the top left that is essentially a slice of congealed animal blood]

YUM!

after we finished eating breakfast we walked by the building they keep all the pigs in and saw them squealing and screaming as they were herded into the back of a truck to be shipped off somewhere. this almost made me become a vegetarian :)
