If You Like It Then You Should Have Put An Egg On It…| A Brunch Time Recipe

My husband has some solid beliefs when it comes to food.  His philosophy is strongly sandwich-based.  He believes that everything can be made into a sandwich. This has become such a thing in my family that I find myself texting my brother pictures of meals that my husband has turned into sandwiches. He is famous for it. In fact,  I have caught him daydreaming before while we are driving around and doing Sunday errands.  I asked him  “Hey Hun, what are you thinking about?” to which he replied “I was just dreaming about a sandwich that I am going to make when we get home.  It has ham and salami and an egg on it.  Ooooh, and cheddar.”

He is a dreamer, what can I say.  He believes in breakfast.  He believes that everything is better with an egg on it.  I cannot entirely disagree with him.  Put an egg on almost anything and you got yourself a brunch. […]

Chocolate Bread Pudding | Gluten Free

I have a confession to make.  I have never eaten bread pudding before making this one.  All of those years of gluten eating, and bread pudding never made it on my radar.  It wasn’t until my husband ordered something called ” Chocolate Croissant Bread Pudding” at our local bakery that my ears perked up.  It sounded amazing. I watched him eat it with a sense of gluten eaters envy.  That doesn’t happen too often anymore, since I am SO used to being gluten-free… but there he was eating this melty pot of flakey chocolate and butter and there I was eating yogurt.  It was a moment.  I felt an injustice and it had to be righted.

I have no basis for how a bread pudding tastes.  I didn’t really know what went in it.  I assumed.  I didn’t even do a google search.  This could have gone poorly. I will admit that I have a tendency to fly by the seat of my pants in the kitchen.  A dash of this and a dash of that.  I am not great a measuring things.  I keep on having to remind myself to write things down now that I am blogging and sharing things with you lovelies! That’s just how I learned to cook.  I call it the “Put Some” method.  Every time my Grammie or my Mom would give me a recipe and I would ask them “Wait…how much garlic?” or “How much shoyu?” they would always tell me “Oh, you know…just put some!”  So there it is.  My general philosophy in the kitchen.  Just put some.  Cooking by feeling it out.

Pumpkin Pie Breakfast Shake

Good Morning, Friends!

I don’t know about you all, but I’m up early. This whole daylight savings hoopla has got me running on a geriatric schedule. I go to bed at 9:30. And by go to bed, I mean pass out in a puddle of my own drool on the couch without warning. It’s something to behold. When my body is tired, it goes down for the count. I realize that this explanation sounds similar to narcolepsy. Funny. Or is it? Should I get this checked out? Meh.

Naturally, since I have clocked out early, I am waking up before the sun is out. I get up, inconveniencing our dog. She’s tired. She doesn’t understand this nonsense. Not a morning dog.  Typical teenager. […]
