Breakfast

Since I had taken so many pictures over the weekend, I was remiss in showing you the delicious breakfast Tony made me on Sunday.  This was actually my breakfast and lunch.  Last night we were watching t.v. and he was like “why didn’t my breakfast make the blog?” I put some ingredients out and let Tony do his magic!  Eggs, egg whites, corn tortillas, sausage,...

I was so busy at work yesterday and we had storms last night so the computer had to be off, but I am excited for everyone who is jumping on board with your May goals!  Maybe just print out the picture of the salsa to keep you motivated! Guess what?  Tony and I are going on vacation!  We are going to Austin to visit my...

Over the weekend I found a lone can of pumpkin in the back of my pantry.  Since it still feels like fall around here, I decided to make me and my boss pumpkin buttermilk pancakes. I really, really loved how these came out.  While my boss loves all things sweet for breakfast, me?  Not so much.  These had just the right amount of sweetness since...

Poor Tony.  On mornings when I am running short on time, the kitchen looks like a mini tornado went through it.  I have no idea how I didn’t hear my alarm – I know I switched it from a CD to wake me up to the radio, but it was the same time.  All I know is that I had to pick up pies for...

It was so nice having a three day weekend last weekend.  I feel just that extra day makes all the difference.  I’ve been trying to make granola clusters forever.  While Nicole’s granola is still delicious, it didn’t clump together as much as I wanted.  While I don’t mind “loose” granola for parfaits, sometimes I just like to snack on it, and it makes it difficult...

So we’ve made it to Friday – woot!  I actually have Monday off and next Friday off for Good Friday, so next week will be a nice 3 day work week – gotta love when that happens! Doesn’t everyone wake up an hour before having to leave work and decide to make muffins?  Yep, that was me.  7:00 a.m.  I usually have an iced coffee...

Thanks for all your comments yesterday after I “came clean” about my over eating over the weekend.  It’s nice to know that I am not alone, but it also helped me be more conscious of my eating yesterday. Helen pointed out that just because I didn’t get on the scale, doesn’t mean that I didn’t overeat.  So on my “do over” post on February 11...

Over the weekend I stumbled across a recipe for a zucchini tart that had a crust with Greek yogurt in it.  I was immediately intrigued!  This does take a bit of planning because like most crusts, you need to refrigerate it for at least an hour. I ended up making the dough on Sunday, and yesterday morning I put the quiche together.  I was planning...

I am making breakfast for one of my bossed three days a week.  While she does pretty good with healthy lunches and dinners, breakfast just stumps her.  Other than yogurt and some fruit. she can’t wrap her brain around eating “real” food, i.e. non-diet food for breakfast. Enter the breakfast wonton.  I love wonton  wrappers.  My store normally sells them for .99 cents.  I use...

Friday night we still had temperatures in the 50’s before we went to bed.  It felt more like April than January.  But winter finally reared its ugly head, and we were blanketed in ice. We don’t have a garage, so it took me about 20 minutes to defrost the car before I could drive anywhere! Saturday morning Tony me another one of his delicious breakfasts. ...
