I was a whirlwind of activity before work yesterday.  Putting together the granola I made for Hannah and her friend, putting all the stuff together for my taco fiesta lunch at work and checking my check list to make sure I had everything. I got half way to work and realized that I never made anything for my breakfast!  My first thought was “just have...

I forget what a good idea making quiche is.  On Thursday’s I feed one boss breakfast and the other one lunch.  I made a broccoli quiche with leftover Easter ham.  My boss and I had it for breakfast and I gave my other boss a slice for lunch with a Caesar salad  on the side.  #winning!
