I *heart* Morels


I'm in agony right now.  I live down south.   In the middle of Florida. And its Morel season.  I can taste them.  Buttery. Kind of crunchy.  But I'm in Florida.  Central Florida.  There are no fried morel mushrooms for me here.  Button mushrooms, shiitakes even, but no morels *sad face*

An Egg By Any Other Name


My most favorite breakfast in the whole wide world is poached eggs on buttered toast.  Unfortunately, I also think its a bit of a hassle to make during the week.  I just don't have time to get the water to a simmer and get the eggs cooked and actually have time to eat it before I leave for work.

I Hop for French Toast


I hate stale bread and I always end up with quite a lot of stale bread by the end of the week. I’m the only one in the house that eats sandwiches. I only eat them during the work week packed in my lunch tote. I like store bread bought bread because it’s convent, but let’s be honest, it’s not particularly tasty.
