So this morning, I woke up with plenty of time. I had an extra 20 minutes before this train ride, so there was time to putz around, do nothing, AND make breakfast before jetting out of the house and making the mad dash to the train...(yeah, thought I left the cell phone at home, turned around, and realized it was in my bag the whole time...FAIL. The lady at the Lombard train cashier station gets a big fat BOO! from me. She's ridiculously slow, makes people late for the train, and over charged me for my ticket to Oak Park.
Today, I had the aforementioned solid breakfast that I was discussing yesterday. Egg white scramble with baby spinach, homemade giardinara (Mom makes the best--green olives, carrots, jalepenos, celery, oil, and Italian seasonings), and cablanca cheese. Cablanca has replaced Australian cheddar as one of the
favorite staple cheeses in my fridge drawer (living with the parents, I get a drawer to hide my super special food stuffs as I spend way too much money on cheese). Mostly, this is because my liquor store no longer carries the cheddar. Sad.
*SHAMELESS PLUG* I promise not to have too many of these...
With the delightful scramble, I enjoyed some toasted beer bread (A la Tastefully Simple--which you can purchase from yours truly here.) I love the beer bread...It's SO flippin' easy and delish...and makes great breakfast stuffs.
Funny story-typically I drink water and coffee...sometimes a little juice...and once in a great while (when its there) I drink pop (not soda, not sodie, not coke, pop). So this morning I had a little Diet 7 Up. To this day, I still can't drink that without tasting the vodka from my college days. Thanks Mama S! She taught me that we always drink our vodka with diet pop(yes pop) because we don't need those extra calories!
See ya tomorrow!
