One Pan Breakfast

Lately, we seem to be on a breakfast for breakfast, brunch, and dinner kick. Maybe it's because it's quick and easy. Maybe it's because when you have a fridge full of potatoes and onions and squash it just screams breakfast. Or maybe that's just me. Regardless, this is a simple, straightforward, dump-everything-in-and-go sort of recipe. Which makes it perfect for days when you are a bit short on time but still want something more involved than cold cereal.

Day 335/365--Breakthrough

Last winter, we framed some art over the desk. All the prints were supposed to get framed, but two of the frames arrived with broken glass. Distracted by our housewarmng party and the holidays, I failed to get them returned in time, so eventually I ordered more frames. Only the ones I received were the wrong ones and customer service decided to ignore me after an initial conversation. Then, yesterday, it dawned on me. The wrong frames had intact glass. That I could remove and put in the original frames! Huzzah! So today I did just that and, finally, these two prints are framed. Now I just need to break out the Dremel to install the hangers and we can get them up on the wall. : D

French Toast

French toast and I have had an understanding for years now--other people made it and I ate it. But having made pancakes and omlets and breakfast potatoes rather to death this summer I decided to get adventurous. And get this--french toast? Totally easy. Amazing.

Skip Day

Today's skip day is brought to you by a hubby who stayed late at work and a whole lot of house cleaning, recipe sleuthing, and other weekend preparations. Even dinner tonight was simple.

My mom loves to give both me and my brother stuffed animals. I maybe pushing thirty (did I really just type that?) but that doesn't mean that birthdays, Christmas, and any other gift giving occasion she can dream up have to be stuffy free. This particular dragon was a gift several years ago. Possibly in college. He sits up on the shelves in our rec room, peeking out from behind the grid to observe our comings and goings.
