Aug. 18th, 2013
I like breakfast and in my book there are really 2 kinds. Sit down and eat or grab and go. Most days, I much prefer the grab and go. I like to get my coffee and my grab and go and head back to bed with Zoey and my laptop and Internet into my day. But, I'm currently at a grab and go loss.
For years I made quiche muffins but eventually, I just go really tired of those. I don't like smoothies. I don't want to take the time to make toast or scamble eggs and I'm not that wild about microwaved eggs either. Cereal and milk is ok but if I spill a bowl of cereal and milk on my bed, I'm going to be seriously pissed. I'm ok with a little sweet but not too much and I'd rather have savory. I bought a loaf of banana bread. This morning I opened the package, cut off a slice, lathered it with cream cheese. It was way too sweet and way too dry and just a total fail.
I do like the prepared ahead, pop into the microwave model. So just now, I made a trial. 6 eggs, some frozen crumbled sausage, some salt and pepper, some of creamed cheese (cause it was already on the counter) and a handful of grated cheddar. Whipped it up and poured it into a muffin tin. 7 muffins. They are in the oven now. 350. I'm thinking maybe 20ish mins. We'll see.
Today's pool opens at 11 so the plan is to be there then. I'll leave here in about 40 minutes. Nothing else really on the agenda. I'm not likely to stop for breakfast/lunch after today because I got lots of groceries yesterday. So I'll come home and whip something up. The game is an afternoon game today.
I've got two good books going... I'm listening to The Silent Wife on audio and still reading and enjoying the heck out of Gulp. The summer shows are winding down on TV and we've still got about 5 weeks until the fall season so I'm watching a lot of HGTV with some Netflix thrown in.
Guess I'll get up and get dressed and toss in a laundry load while I wait for the breakfast experiment to mature.

Ok, so far so good. Cooled out of the oven, they weren't bad at all. The size is perfect. They are now in the fridge. Tomorrow, I'll nuke one with my coffee and see how that goes. This could work The possible variations are endless.I swam a mile this morning and it was glorious. Thoughtful lane etiquette varies so widely from pool to pool. At the pool I use on Sunday, they really have none. I ended up in one lane with one really really slow swimmer and one who's about my speed. The woman at my speed and I ended up spending a lot of time waiting on Ms. Slow. Or doing half laps. The lane next to ours - a faster lane - had two people but they were splitting it, meaning there was no room for a third. Finally, Ms. Slow left and the road was clear both ways. By this time I had done my 60 laps but it was so lovely to stretch out and not worry about traffic, I just went on til I hit 74. It was lovely.
The other two pools I swim in regularly have strict circle policies. You must hug the right hand side of the lane at all times so really, if you have swimmers of nearly the same speed, you could have 5 or 6 people sharing a lane. This Sunday pool has signs that say they want you to circle swim but they don't enforce it and most swimmers I run into there would much rather split. It's weird but it's fine. I can always go to another pool if I don't like it.
I am still installing updates on the Windows PC that reformatted and reloaded last week. The more I use my chromebook the less patience I have for the Windows operating system.
