TaStY TuEsDaYs: Muffin Cups

After watching everyone else slave away in the kitchen for Thanksgiving, I was convinced by the time Saturday morning rolled around that I had been bitten by the kitchen fairy. Along with breakfast I made lunch, dinner, snacks and a dessert. Using a recipe book that was given to me by the hubs grandmother, I decided to go to work.
This Tuesday I bring to you a recipe I used for the first time. It turned out to be an orgasmic experience for my palette & bargain for my check book!



Gather all of your ingredients:

1 bag of shredded cheese

1 tube of sausage

1 bell pepper

12 large eggs

1.5 cups of milk

 Fry the sausage until golden brown. Drain & return the sausage to the skillet.

Crack 12 eggs into a large bowl. Pour milk into the bowl & whisk until thoroughly blended. 

Take the bell pepper & dice half of the pepper into small bite size pieces

 Drop the diced pepper into each muffin cup

 Fill each muffin cup with pieces of bell pepper

Take all of the sausage and drop a tablespoon into each muffin cup. Fill the cups up until all of the sausage is gone.

 Cover the eggs with shredded cheese & bake at 375 degrees for approx. 15 to 20 minutes until cooked thoroughly and until golden brown. Add toast or any side of your choice & Voila Yummo!

GBU Monday

Once again, it's Monday, which means it's time to link up with Kate & Kati for another week of GBU! Pretty self explanatory but you share the good, bad & ugly of your weekend!

After having a four day break off of work it was very hard to get to sleep & even harder to wake up and get motivated! Needless to say I took full advantage of my time off! Busy busy busy!

So let's get started here is my GBU!

Good: After a wonderful two days spent with family and friends, receiving a Christmas bonus from work early and stuffing my face with delicious meals after another I took some time for retail therapy! While scoring deals for the little one & other I scored an awesome deal on these cute and irristable handbags from Coach. 30% coupon at the door and another 50% at the register! Merry early Christmas to me! 2 bags for $80!

Bad: I really have no complaints about the weekend. The only "bad" thing about the weekend is our new found friend Lucy. She has been terriorizing the place since Sunday morning. Toilet papering the tree, taking jacuzzi baths in the sink, drinking out of the syrup bottle & dumping out my makeup bag to put lipstick on are among the few things she has accomplished this weekend :) I think my daughter is doing a countdown for when Lucy strikes again. Bad to clean up & prepare but totally worth the excitement and reaction!

Ugly: With Thanksgiving, four days off of work & the cabinets stocked pile of food, what else did this girl do? Eat! I must of packed on at least 10 lbs this weekend. From Thanksgiving dinners to breakfasts and desserts I can say I ate my fair share! Time to diet until the next holiday. Wait that's a month away. Crap.



Well that wraps up the GBU! Hope you have a great Monday & an even better week! Keep Smiling!

What's your GBU for the weekend? I would love to hear your stories! Follow me now & link up to the party!

High Five For Friday!

Is it Friday already? This week has flown by! The best part about today is the fact I'M OFF OF WORK! This is a celebration in itself! Another day for housework, bill paying, spending time with the family & friends & just being able to enjoy the daylight. (This hardly occurs, I leave to go to work in the dark and by the time I leave it is almost dark, darn daylight savings time!)

Here are some awesome things that happened this week:

                     Starbucks

 

 

(1.) A couple times a week my daughter & I stop at Starbucks. She usually gets a cake pop & I will get my usual Cinnamon Dulce Latte. This morning she switched up the routine & went with a Christmas holiday cookie. So yummy! Starbucks=our favorite!(2.) As much as I am dreading my upcoming surgery, I have to thank God that they have caught the cancerous cells earlier rather later. Counting my blessings & hoping for the best.
(3.) With the Thanksgiving holiday yesterday, I was able to spend quality time with our bestest friends and family. Good food & good company!
(4.)Hip Hip Horray! It was a three day work week & a four day weekend! Lots of time for everything! Need I say more?
(5.)My bff stopped by for a visit this week. We do not see each other enough. We have been friends for about 10 years. Anytime I need her, she's there. A school teacher & mentor she is definitely someone I and many people look up to. She is awesome and time spent with her is pretty valuable.

I'm looking forward to a relaxing weekend!  The full recap will come on Monday with the GBU, the link-up party Kate & Kati host.
