Song: Taste and See: Breakfast: Banana with Rice Cake Sandwich et. al.

Have you ever tried to whistle in vibrato Taste and See | Catholic Communion Hymn | James E. Moore Jr. | Choir with Lyrics | Sunday 7pm Choir while making breakfast?

Breakfast: a freeform sliced half banana, strategically placed on a rice cake spread with sunflower seed butter topped with a graham cracker square (omit this step if gluten-free). Store bought toffee cashews that tasted like petroleum, next time I will make them myself. A 2-cup mug of 2 min. nuked water with lime peel and a sundried tomato. Next time skip the sundried tomato.

Breakfast: Apple, Potato Bread Sandwich

Homemade placemat on the table.

One half of a granny smith apple with a pat from a stick of M80 butter. (M80 is a local restaurant)

Two ends of potato bread toast with a smattering of sunflower seed butter. One with a little honey.

The last remains of Spicy Maple Cashew Mini Artisan Crisps, from Albertson's, including the crumbs on my fingers.

A 2-cup mug of 2-minute nuked tap water.

Yum Yum

P.S. The crisps, aka crackers, can serve many purposes and have a slight sweet date-like taste. M80 is a local restaurant in Missoula, and their butter blend is especially noteworthy. I wish I had their recipe. I was using my imagination and currently sticks of M80 butter are not available., At the M80 restaurant only about a tablespoon of their butter is accompanied with some meals. I"ll make that a project of mine and try to get their recipe or something close to share with us.

Breakfast: Grape Nuts

 Around 8ish this morning I got out of bed. Walked into the kitchen with a cup I left in my bedroom and man were the lights bright. I had to turn all of them off and use the one over the stove. 

I proceeded to fill a 2-cup mug with water and nuked it for 2 minutes and added a couple of teaspoons of Pero. This is my usual morning coffee, as I have a caffeine sensitivity. I asked myself what do I want for breakfast? I checked the fruit basket and there were some leftover dehydrated grapes from our garden. Then I checked the pantry and saw some grape nuts cereal. I bet these two will go good together.

I filled a 1-cup mug with half and half and a pat of butter and nuked it for one minute, added 1 teaspoon of Pero and proceeded to pour this mixture over the cereal and home-grown raisins. And said a little prayer, "Heavenly Father Bless this FOOD for the nourishment of OUR Body and help us grow in your Grace and Love. Amen. I proceeded to take a mindful taste. Oh, was it ever delicious. I think I could have settled for one bite but ate it all. 

Let's see who do I feel like today? Sally Clarkson?, Brooke Davis? Joyce Meyer? No, just plain Cathy.

A Fresh Raspberry in the Winter on the Sidewalk

I spotted a fresh raspberry on the sidewalk near the Food Bank. I double dog dared myself to eat it.  It tasted almost but not quite as fresh off the vine. (a little too watery)

Protein Pancakes

2 oz cream cheese
2 eggs
1 scoop vanilla or chocolate protein powder
toppings of choice, such as caramel sauce and toasted pecans

Preheat oven to 275 degrees.

Put all ingredients except the toppings in a blender or use an immersion blender, and blend until smooth. Let rest for 2 minutes.

Pour 1/4 of the batter into a hot pan greased with local butter. Cook for 2-3 minutes and flip when golden brown. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side. Place on a plate in the oven to keep warm while cooking the remaining pancakes. Can be made in one or two pans at a time. Serve with toppings of your choice.

Makes 2 hearty servings, or if eating mindfully divide and serves 8 or more.
