Today I am joining Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom.
The Weather . . .
19°F with a wind chill of 8°F
Right now I am . . .
Brewing coffee and posting this blog post.
Thinking and pondering . . .
If you have chickens, are you team "fill the roosts with straw/bedding" or nothing team? We put straw in ours, and our eggs are clean. I was given some eggs a few weeks ago (team nothing in the roosts), and the eggs were very dirty. Also, since I have not been putting straw in the roosts, they are laying on the floor of the coop, so I'm going back to putting straw inside the roosts.
How I am feeling . . .
Pretty good.
On the breakfast plate . . .
Egg/sage sausage/cheese cups to go with an oatmeal bake. When I bake the egg cups, I like to put the solid ingredients in each cup first, then mix up the 6 eggs, 1/4 cup heavy cream (I used Greek plain yogurt and a splash of milk, salt/pepper and 1/2 tsp. baking powder, and evenly pour it over the other ingredients. It's just so much easier to evenly distribute the ingredients. I baked this for 18-20 minutes at 350°F.
By the way, this helps make one pound of sausage make more meals. I used 1 cup cooked sausage and 1 cup or less of pepper jack cheese that I hand shredded.
Also, I know they are not cheap, but I use parchment cups, because no matter what I grease my pan with, they always stick.
On the lunch plate . . .
Leftovers.
On the dinner plate . . .

To-do list . . .
Deep Clean - Clean Washing Machine (it has a "clean washer" cycle), clean microwave. If you do not have a "Clean" cycle on your washing machine, you can buy tablets to toss in your washer and run on a hot cycle to clean your washing machine.

We use shavings for our chicken coop and our eggs are always clean too. I guess there's something to that, isn't there?
I absolutely love your crochet blanket, I need to get back to crocheting, I've missed it so much.
Your menu sounds yummy. I noticed you mentioned low carb quesadillas, are you on a low carb diet? I've talked about it on my blog this morning, but I recently have switched due to my blood test results.
Anyway, have a blessed week.

Those egg and cheese cups look delicious! I need some good egg recipes especially since the girls are laying regularly now!
I hope you have a wonderful week!!
