We have had a good Thanksgiving weekend. We spent the actual day at Ken's parents' house in Culpeper. Ken had to work on Friday, so we came home Thursday evening. The kids and I (and Ken when he isn't working) have been spending lots of time together playing, hanging out and making meals. We have made breakfast together a few days in a row. Frances likes to help by cracking the eggs and whisking the mixture. I didn't make breakfast a big deal today because I didn't feel well last night and I woke up very tired. While I was in the shower, Frances came to tell me she was going to make her own breakfast. I said "OK" and off she went. Here is her recipe:
Frances' Breakfast- Climb precariously on top of the cabinet and get down a mixing bowl.
- Crack three eggs into the bowl. Make sure to drip egg on the counter top and down the front of the cabinet doors.
- Whisk.
- Add a few spoonfuls of cranberry sauce and applesauce. Put spoon back in spoon cup.
- Whisk again.
- Put mixture in microwave for "too long."
- Eat...three bites...and then refuse because it "doesn't taste right."
- Eat cereal like a normal person.
This is a great way to get rid of those holiday leftovers. And I do mean "get rid of" because this went right into the trash can after the first three bites.
