I haven’t made French Toast in a LONG time. I got up Sunday Morning knowing exactly what I was going to fix for breakfast. I was going to enjoy eating it outside in the cool morning on the deck with a big mug of coffee. I had exactly four pieces of my Trader Joes bread left. One piece is 1 PPV, and I was going to enjoy all four of them! I had everything ready to go! I topped it with real Maple Syrup, sliced banana and fresh blueberries! Isn’t it beautiful?
Would you believe right after I took this picture, I went to get my coffee, and when I turned around, Tucker was IN MY PLATE!
He got a good lecture! Wouldn’t even look me in the face!
Finally, he said he was sorry.
I told him under absolutely NO CIRCUMSTANCES, would he get to play with his favorite Green Toy today!
(he did say he was sorry)
Stupid dog! Why…..why…..WHY do I love him so?
So I ate this instead.
Whatever.

Then I went to Trader Joe’s and bought these to try……..
Cinnamon Apple Snack Sticks
I opened them on the way home. 38 of them is one serving. One serving is 4 PPV. I counted out ten, for 1 PPV, and enjoyed them on the drive home. Great find! Not a disappointment at all! So, while driving, I counted out ten more, then ten more, then ten more.

It was absolutely gorgeous outside today, so most everything I did was outside, or with the windows down or opened. I opened up the garage and worked on my sewing machine project for a bit. I have it all in pieces now so I can paint it properly. Excited to get to the painting part!
Mike decided to work today. Apparently he had enough of me yesterday. 🙁
(kidding…..he took some time of this week and Saturday for some golf, some Grandparents Day, and some Music on Main, so he worked a few Sunday hours)
Dinner HAD to be cooked and eaten outside. Too pretty to be in! I tried something new. Grilled sweet potato fries? They look awful! They really didn’t taste burnt at all, but they do look like they would taste terrible! They tasted fabulous! Just a little olive oil and kosher salt, grill 3-6 minutes on each side.
For the burgers, I mixed one pound turkey, one egg, 1/4 C. bread crumbs, lots of Cavendars Greek Seasoning and 1/4 reduced fat Feta. That made six burgers. No bun needed!
