Tag Archive for: Breakfast

Friday brings with it the promise of a lazy weekend morning and a change from my boring weekday breakfasts. We have a lovely little breakfast place with some of the best pastries I have ever had. Frasca Caffe, makes our very favorite Almond Croissant as well as a fabulous breakfast sandwich and fantastic coffee. This is our normal breakfast…notice the smiley. J

Since I am currently laid up with a broken leg, BF brought Frasca Caffe to me and Mary made eggs to top our sandwiches. That little bit of semi-homemade love makes for a great weekend morning! I often make our weekend scramble with whatever we have in the fridge. It is always a unique combination.


Weekend Scramble


Combine 6 eggs, 2 T milk, salt, pepper and your favorite seasoning mix in a bowl and whisk well. Heat 2 T butter over medium heat in a pan, add eggs holding back about 2 T. Cook until you reach desired doneness stirring with a Wisk to create a soft fluffy texture. Remove from heat and add the reserved egg and stir. The residual heat will cook it, I promise! Toast an English muffin and top with eggs, cheese, and sliced avocado. Enjoy immediately! Have a fabulous weekend!!

I will be the first to admit that I was more than a little excited about the Royal Wedding. I did not drag myself out of bed to watch it live, but I did make scones to celebrate! (Stay tuned for details).

I watched the (DVRed) coverage start to finish relishing every detail of the transformation of Miss Catherine Middleton to The Dutchess of Cambridge. Though she is not a Princess strictly speaking, it really is a fairytale. The Brits do pomp & circumstance better than anyone. I admire how proper even the crowds seem to be exhibiting their best British behavior this morning. Everyone simply excited to be a part of the pageantry!

The highlights for me were seeing the siblings interacting. Kate and Pippa (who looked fantastic herself) were just sweet and supportive. Harry was both emotional and jocular (not to mention just perfectly disheveled). Seeing the love and understanding that seemed to be present between William and Kate. Seeing the crowds all along the way. It seemed to be a wonderful day for the monarchy. It was interesting to see how conservative this wedding was compared to Charles and Diana. From the dress to the flowers, everything was understated. I loved the gown, though it was quite simple for the venue. The whole look was just what you would expect from her. I would have loved to see a more elaborate bouquet as well as a cathedral-length veil, worthy of Westminster Abby. Otherwise, I thought everything was stunning and tasteful. The trees in the Abby were a fabulous touch!  Kate had such poise and I don’t think she could have done anything better. The kiss was sweet as well and I loved that they gave in for a second kiss!

The Happy Couple

What did you think? Did you watch? Do something special to celebrate? Have a favorite part? Anything you would have done differently?

Congratulations to the happy couple!!
