Totally Yum!!: Eggs in a Frame

Hey there and Hello,

So once or twice a week from now on I will try to post a blog titled Totally Yum!! and then a totally yum dish that I like,make, I will then share with you all. I am by no means the world's best chef but I come from a family of women who are AMAZING cooks/bakers and I figure that gene has to be somewhere in me.lol. I like to make food that tastes good and is memorable for the people I love. You beautiful people will read along as I attempt these dishes and maybe get a recipe or two out of it.

The dish today is Eggs in a Frame. My little brother Richie used to ask me to make this for him when we were younger all the time. I got the recipe out of this kid's cookbook my mom got my a million Christmas' ago. It is simple, quick and easy...It totally schocked me when Breonna and Jordan have never had it. So Totally Yum!!




Eggs in a Frame
(I made this to serve 3 people, so adjust the recipe to fit your needs)
What you will need:
6 eggs
6 peices of bread (I used whole wheat)
Spreadable butter
Salt and Pepper to season ( I used Nature's Seasoning cuz I LOVE it)




How you Cook it up:

First take your everyday average peice of bread, I used whole wheat but feel free to use whatever you like.


Next you want to gently fold the bread in half.


Pince the center of the bread to get your "Frame" or if you want to get all Fancy use your favorite shaped cookie cutter.


Butter both sides of your bread.




Pour one egg into the bread hole. try to be careful to keep the whole egg in the bread "Frame"




Go Crazy and SEASON!!





When one side gets a beautiful golden brown, Flip away.


Wa la !! You are totally done. Plate your Egg in a Frame and add on some fresh fruit or I gave the kiddos turkey bacon. Easy enough,huh? It is an easy dish that everyone should dig and what is cool..you can change it up however you like.


Well folks that is my very first Totally Yum!! blog and I hope you enjoy as much as we all did. Stay Rad and Rock Out with your smile out!!

PA-FOOM

I have always wanted to have a book, something that people would want to read, something that one day might inspire someone. Someone once told me, "Trish, start small..move that pebble before you move that mountain." Starting small has always been a problem of mine. I am the type of person that wants to move the mountain quickly and build a village on it in an hour. When that doesn't happen..I get so frustrated with myself and feel like I failed. Who moves a mountain in an hour and builds a whole village? No one. It doesn't happen. A girl can try though right?



So, I am starting smaller. This blog is mainly just an outlet for my business, my family, my friends and my life. Before you read any further I should let you know that the grammar will almost always be poor , so will the punctuation and if it was for spell check..so would my spelling. (If Sara reads this, she will shake her head and say,"Again with the dot, dot, dot") I will try to blog as often as I can but if you knew me, you know that is quite the task because I will probably write this 10 times and then delete it again and again. lol.



Anyway, on to business things...I way needed some new pictures of my Merchandise for my business because my other ones were taking in 10 minutes in poor lighting. I needed a model and who better than my beautiful and camera loving future step daughter ..Breonna.(She is such a big personality in such a tiny little body.) I didn't think there could be a child as girly as me, but there is...and her name is Breonna Alexis. My favorite part of the day is when she hears me get up,she hears that restroom door shut, I hear that little knock at the door and her say,"Tricia? Can I wear some of your PA-FOOM?" I will let her in and she carefully looks at each bottle with big eyes, touches each one so softly, with the most serious face a 5 year old can have and makes her selection. She holds out her little wrists and lets me spray them, rubs them together and the finds her daddy so he knows how pretty she smells. It is overwhelming sometimes to have this amazing, beautiful, funny, tiny drama queen adore me and aspire to be like me in so many ways. I am grateful for her and the way she tells me she loves me more than all the pink M&M's in the world.



Back to the pictures(I tend to get off track,lol) I did her hair, dressed her up and started snapping away. She loved every moment of it, she smiled, posed and giggled when she'd see herself in the shots. The best part for me is when we where nearing the end of the "Merch Shoot" and she was posing herself, looked at me and said very plainly,"Tricia, this is my more pretty side." I couldn't help but laugh and she see gave me her face she does when she thinks I am being a weirdo and giggled. Sometimes that little girl drives me crazy but most certainly I love her more than ALL the pink M&M's in the whole world.



Well, it is getting late and I can feel the sleep in my eyes..So until next time I will leave you with a few pictures of the shoot. I don't know if anyone will read my blogs but I hope those that do enjoy them and keep coming back. Remember to Rock out with your smile out!
