Saturday was sunny and warm outside. Sunday morning was a rainy grey morning and I was putting off posting. It poured all day… In the evening I was finally I was ready and my internet was down. It Must have been the freezing rainwater and sudden snowstorm… Mother Nature is very confused.

I’ve shared my crustless quiche recipe before, when my camera was broke. Now that I made it again, I decided to take a picture to share. This time I used turkey ham and a combination of cheese; extra sharp cheddar, sharp cheddar (white) and sharp cheddar (orange). I substituted shallots instead of the minced onions. It was the perfect breakfast on this snowy morning.

My 300th Post!

I feel like I should either be celebrating or writing something epic… But in reality, today’s post is short and sweet. Last night, we were busy putting together Hubster’s new elliptical and it looks like it’s going to take us two nights… Ah, quality time… After being exhausted I needed to whip up a snack (I also made these New Year’s Eve).

My picky Hubster was popping these into his mouth, that is until he found out the cheese was goat cheese. Goat cheese can be really pungent, but the smoky bacon and sweet peppers balance out the flavors. Funny how you can love something until you find out what it is. 🙂
