Tuesday Tidbits



I made my first cabbage and egg omelet.  That is not red cabbage either.  It's leftover cabbage I had previously cooked up with beets from the garden.   I fried it in a small bit of non-gmo organic canola oil, then added a tiny bit of organic soy sauce.  I poured in two scrambled eggs.  I simply used salt and pepper and a bit if cheese in the middle.  Absolutely delicious!    Mama Pea over at A Home Grown Journal, mentioned cabbage for breakfast (with eggs).  I just had to try it.




I'm going to try making this next year with homemade cream cheese or other homemade cheese.

If my brain had been all together thinking straight, I would have fried some onions, peppers and potatoes for a breakfast side too (or squash hashbrowns).



Lunch was a root beer jelly and peanut butter sandwich, an apple, and non-gmo chips (okay so I put a little too many on my plate, ha ha!).  I had to at least try it so folks could know.  It is (the jelly that is) good with peanut butter, but spread it thin.  The root beer jelly is very sweet.  You only need a little bit.

As you can tell, I took it a bit slower yesterday, but still got some work done. I finished crocheting an eyeglass case for myself.




This is the latest book (non-fiction) I am reading from the library.  I have had it, but have had little time to read it.  It's due back soon, so I hope to be able to finish it.  It's about three female US Army National Guardsmen, who join the military for different reasons, but never imagined having to go to war. 

The weather is warming up in the afternoons, so I'm back in the garden early while it's still cool out.  Then it's back inside to write.  I'm currently working on a short story.  

This cooler weather is begging me to bake something yummy.  Maybe more granola bars?  Or possibly banana bread.  Hm.  Both sound good with a hot cup of tea on the porch today.

How did I miss this? I have cabbage! I have eggs! I will have to try it. I love that eyeglass case - you are so talented! BTW, there is no such thing as too many potato chips on your plate.... :)
Liz, that sounds delicious.

Susan, you made me laugh about the potato chips! Ha ha!

I eat all kinds of veggies for breakfast. I will have to try the cabbage omelet.

I actually really love cabbage, I will most definitely have to give this a try.

I love the way you used the cabbage and eggs! When I first saw the picture, I thought it was an omelette with chipped dried beef in it!

I'm with you on the potato chips. (I just wish they were a main food group!)
It was really good, and I would have never thought of putting cabbage with eggs.

Apples and Tomatoes Oh My!

  The early morning weather here has been downright chilly.  One morning it was 42 degrees.  Flower beds have been weeded.  The herb garden is next in line, but I do need to figure out what to do with all the rosemary plants I planted in the actual vegetable garden.  I have not mastered keeping them alive all winter indoors.  They will not survive the winter if left outside. Did any of my blog writing followers locate a better "blog" platform online?  Just curious if anyone is moving from blogger. 

Under the Weather ~ What's Growing?

  I have not been around in blogland much, due to being under the weather after I pushed myself way to far one day.  I have to remember we cannot do it all in one day.  Thank goodness for teas and tinctures, and healing foods (and rest).  We are feeling better. As for our blogs being used for advertising on many websites, and so forth (I can't see any other reason for the source of views: howstuffworks, dominospizza, mayoclinic {not the blog readers interested in my actual blog}) the numbers continue to climb.  I have not found a way to "opt" out either.  If any of you find a new way to avoid this, blog elsewhere, find a new platform etc, please be sure to share.   If your blog has ads, you are are not going to complain, ha ha!  You are probably making a bucko-bucks with all these visitors to your blog. Okay, back to the update post . . .

16 Weeks Until Christmas

  It's not hard to believe that we are traveling closer to the winter holidays.  I'm trying to focus on enjoying every single day until then, but I am fitting in a few snippets of holiday preparing.  Christmas is my favorite holiday of the year.  It's hard to believe it's the last day of August. I have not yet gotten rid of the links to all the advertisers using my blog posts, but again, still working on it. However, my profile has gone from my blog, and while I am in settings, it is not able to add as a "gadget" to the blog.  Weird things are happening.   Google had a data breach recently as well, so gmail users were advised to change passwords.  Not sure what else is going on, but just in case you are wondering why my "profile" is not on my blog any longer.   Okay, back to the Christmas countdown post . . .
