I think it got down to about 55 degrees last night.  In my book there is nothing better than being under the covers with a cool breeze floating across your face.  I almost was going kick our dog off of our down comforter that he sleeps on at the foot of our bed! For breakfast yesterday I used 2 slices of my no-knead bread as...

While Hannah is going to community college, I couldn’t not take her picture for her first day of school.  I remember when she went to kindergarten – she was growing out her bangs at the time and I had her hair pulled back really cute.  She goes to school and the photographer handed out combs to all the kids, so she thought that meant that...

Tony made me my favorite weekend breakfast – I am calling it that since I’ve had it two Sundays in a row – huevos rancheros.  He even used my chipotle queso Laughing Cow cheese!  Thanks honey 😀 Over the weekend I picked up a few cookbooks from the library.  One is Thomas Keller’s Ad Hoc at Home Cookbook.  Good thing my library had it because...

Yesterday I deep cleaned the kitchen – I washed walls, cabinets, the oven, the dishwasher – its kind of like the domino effect, you clean one thing that leads to another.  I almost didn’t want to mess it up to make anything, but that lasted about five minutes 😀 I had a pint of blueberries I needed to use up.  My pumpkin pancakes are my...

While that could describe me 😀 it will describe this post.  I took exactly six pictures yesterday – that is so not like me! We have two refrigerators, and invariably the “beverage” fridge in the basement gets some overflow from the upstairs one.  The only problem is that if you don’t go in there for a beverage, you forget what’s in there.   So yesterday morning...

Yesterday was the last and final appearance of the cauliflower crustless quiche 😀  I had an english muffin on the side this time, of course still with bacon and Taco Bell sauce!  Breakfast: 472 calories, 35 carbs, 30 protein, 26 fat and 7.3 fiber. Since I did the extreme ride the day before, I opted for the elliptical.  While its nice to watch HGTV while...

I told you yesterday that the crustless cauliflower quiche was on the delicate side and needed more zing.  So I cooked up two pieces of bacon with it 😀 But it still needed something: At lunch I decided to do one of the “extreme” rides and picked one that was 10.5 miles – when I looked down at the hill climb on the screen it...

I think technically I could have three submissions to this weeks BSI contest, but I am going to go with only one. 😀 Hannah babysat two different kids over the weekend and made pizza for each of them.  I noticed there was leftover dough in the fridge, so that meant one thing: breakfast pizza!  This round: 4 ounces of dough, 1/4 cup pizza sauce, 1...

Tony and I were watching another food show over the weekend – I know, shocking!  😀  It was a throw down with Bobby Flay and it was huevos rancheros.  Tony decided to make me breakfast yesterday morning and boy was it delicious! He pam fried the tortilla to make it crispy, removed it, then scrambled two eggs and about an ounce and a half of...

I had gone two weeks without a cocktail, and last night, I just wanted a glass of wine.  Well, one glass turned into three, which turned into me eating potato chips with Hannah while watching the best of Comedy Central’s roasts!  It totally wasn’t worth it, so I am back on the wagon (I think that’s the right saying??!!) I haven’t made breakfast wonton cups...
