Tuesday's Brunch...

Both hubby and I are off for a few days this week to get some much needed projects around the house done. We enjoyed sleeping in this morning...a real luxury for us, especially during the week. We got up and out first thing to take our walk before it got too hot...it was in the mid-70s.  It is bright, sunny and nice out this morning. The forecast for this week is awful though. I just heard we may get 3 to 4 inches of rain tomorrow and it's supposed to rain all throughout the week...so we are enjoying the sunshine while we have it. When we got back from our walk, I made us a big "brunch" since it was 11:00 already. I made cheddar omelets, nitrite free bacon (from a few days ago) and added an Easy Cheddar Black Pepper Biscuit (also made a couple days ago). We are ready to seize the day and enjoy what might be the last of our sunshine this week. I'm hoping to find a couple basil plants and get them planted before it rains...I have looked several places and for whatever reason can't find them this year. I will look outside my usual shopping radius this afternoon. I really love having fresh basil out on the back patio to grab as I need it. I snapped a few photos below of my delicious wheat/grain free breakfast this morning. Enjoy!

Can you send some of that expected rain out here to Arizona. We sure could use it to put these fires out.
Love your blog!

Hi Bernie! Believe me, if I could send the rain your way, I would. The loss of those firefighters' lives is absolutely devastating. I am thinking about all of you out there in AZ and pray the fires will be put out without any further loss of life. Thanks...so glad you enjoy my blog Stay safe. :-)

Hi GGC,

I must branch out and try the cheddar biscuits. They look and sound wonderful!

Hi CyberSis! These biscuits are good and I think the easiest of all -- and they turn out really well when left in balls of dough to bake (instead of flattening a bit first). I don't make them really big -- I'd rather eat one and if I want the 2nd one, then get another. So far I have done just fine eating 1 with my breakfast. Hope you are doing well! :-)
