Breakfast fun!

As I finally take a break from cleaning, and sit down to have some lunch (guac and leftover spaghetti squash) I figured I would take a second to write about how breakfast turned out this morning. First, Isabelle had to WAKE me up at 9:30 to make it - the "break" is finally catching up to me! :) We made ORANGE CINNAMON FRENCH TOAST. It is the type you bake in the oven- similar to a type I have made before, but this one had orange juice in the egg mixture. It also called for a little honey, which we didn't have (Matt was the one that used to buy honey!) So we went without it... I think it may have made the recipe a little better actually, but Erick loved it. He gave it an 8, Isabelle a 7, Me a 6, and Austin a 6 - he said he didn't really like the orange. I am more of a fan of egg breakfasts since I really need the protein, but this was pretty good. For dinner, I am cheating a little. I put a turkey breast in the crock pot with all the veggies as the "start" to a recipe out of the book called "turkey biscuit potpie". Erick says he doesn't "like" potpies.. but I told him this is really more of a "turkey and dumplings" type thing--- it doesn't have a crust like you would normally think of when eating a potpie. One of my favorite childhood meals actually was a chicken potpie over rice. Those were the days! :) Going to go finish my lunch, and then lay down for my afternoon nap--- HOW am I going to make it next week working ALL day? Have a great sunny day everyone!
