Came out this morning to hop in the car to go to Fraziers for breakfast and there were these two HUGE blooms coming from the rather smallish cactus that have been perched in the same spot for about three years. The blooms are so big I'm afraid the blooms will suck the entire bodily parts of the cactus into producing the flowers. Hey, First Nation, you know anything about blooming cactus? Will my little cactus now shrivel up and die? Will your alien cows come and eat them? Just curious.
The price of gas has dropped from a high of $4.35 to $4.19. Oh the dizziness of it all.
Felt like cooking, so after breakfast at Fraziers, stopped in local market to pick up onions and a couple ribs of celery. Went home and drug out a bag of croutons, a frozen block of very hearty stock. I melted the stock, chopped onions and celery and threw them in to simmer. Added black olives,halved to find those pesky lurking pits and then added the cubed bread bits. Combined in a large mixing bowl, let sit for a few minutes to cool and cracked in two eggs and stirred some more. Poured into lightly oiled casserole dish, put in oven 30 minutes at 350 degrees. The above is the before picture as the after picture while golden, brown and delicious was out of focus.
Oh yes, Breakfast at Fraziers consisted of one special for husband consisting of Country Fried Steak, scrambled eggs, country potatoes,gravy on the side, rye toast, blackberry jam. My breakfast consisted of one slice (HUGE) of French toast, two slices of crispy bacon, one scrambled egg and a side of country potatoes, maple syrup for the French toast. Cost 20 bucks plus 15% tip for a very attentive waitress. Business was brisk for a Friday. Yummy. Must take a nap now.
