Good Morning

It’s 5:46 am, but I’m blogging now, because things are really getting busy here, and I don’t want to forget. 

I wanted to let you know that I’m going out of town and won’t be bringing my computer, so there won’t be any blogging until I get back on Sept 20th.  I’ll try to touch base then, but if I’m too pooped, then I’ll say hello on the 21st.

The next order of business is, what to make for breakfast?  We are running low on food supplies.  We are out of eggs, which cuts out a whole slew of breakfast options.  Not just the eggs things, like omelets, scrambled, etc.  It also eliminates, crepes, pancakes, coffee cake, blueberry muffins. 

But never fear.  My family won’t go hungry, at least not today.  I’ve decided to make a fruit crumble.  I’ve got a bunch of delicious summer fruit tucked away in the freezer, a couple of apples in the crisper, I have the butter, oatmeal, some flour (although, that’s getting low too),  some sugar and cinnamon.  If I dig hard enough, I’m sure I’ll be able to find a wrinkled up lemon lurking in the back of my fridge.  I also have pecans and almonds which is good, because I like to grind up a handful of them to throw into the topping.  And best of all, I have some heavy whipping cream to drizzle on top. 

I love that about cooking.  You can open your fridge and think, oh God, there is nothing edible in here to eat.  And then you take a little of this and a dab of that and the next thing you know, nothing has turned into a delicious something. 

Have a great week, everybody.  I’m off to have fun in the kitchen.  See you when I get back! xo
