i love … poached egg over olive herb pesto polenta

This is not my normal weeknight dinner.  It just looked so pretty and delicious when I saw it over at Sacramento Street.  Also, my husband grew up eating grits … polenta = grits.  So, this is my way of thanking him for tolerating my vegetarianism:)

It was easy.  I was a little nervous about poaching eggs but it was a simple process … and so healthy.  Perfect for a cold winter day.

a good stiff drink…

Found these via Pinterest

Strawberry Basil Margaritas.  I made some a couple weeks ago … They are GOOD and easy.  The perfect beverage for a hot, summer evening.  Check out some more of my Pinterest finds here

breakfast of champions…

My husband is always up for trying something new when it comes to food.  This morning, he brought this home for breakfast…

1. The Homer … Glazed donut with strawberry icing and tons of sprinkles.

2. The Hypnotic … Chocolate cake donut with chocolate icing, pretzels, crushed Peanut Butter Captain Crunch and a carmel drizzle.

3. The Morning Breath … Chocolate cake donut with chocolate icing covered in Junior Mints.

4. The Mexican … Glazed donut with vanilla icing, fresh sliced jalapenos and topped with a few shakes of tabasco sauce.

Need a closer look…

If you think the jalapeno donut is crazy…check back next week. The menu at Hypnotic Donuts  changes weekly!

My husband’s donut…..the one with jalapenos…of course.
