Cotton Painted Eggs

One of our projects last week was to paint an egg using cotton balls. Well our neighborhood and entire city really is asking everyone to put eggs in their window to offer people an alternative to hunt eggs. So we actually ended up cutting five more and doing six altogether. I did two myself. Its super easy and doesn’t require anything but paper and paint!

Easter Egg Painting Craft

So this is another craft we did during our homeschooling days. It didn’t go quite like I had planned, but Melody wanted to do it her way. And it wasn’t worth the battle, ha! I will explain as I go along as to what I had hoped she would do.

Boiled Eggs

So I love boiled eggs. I like them alone, in salads, to make different salads, to make deviled eggs, etc. But I despise cooking and peeling them. They are always slightly undercooked and impossible to peel. Well I did some research, then I combined a few methods online until I found something that worked for me.

Ham, Egg, and Cheese Cups

In an effort to continue to find low carb food for Brad, I came up with these ham, egg, and cheese cups.  I have seen similar recipes before, but I kind of just went out on a whim with this one, ha!  These were easy to make on Sunday, and Brad took them to work for breakfast during the week.  He would eat 2-3 at a time.  He seemed to enjoy them.  I am not a huge fan of ham, so these were not for me.  Brad however is a huge ham fan!

Eggs Benedict

I absolutely love eggs benedict.  Whenever we eat breakfast or brunch somewhere that offers it on their menu, I will order it.  My favorite local restaurant that offers brunch on the weekends is called Grille 29.  They serve a crabcake eggs benedict that is to die for.  We also have a local bakery, Edgar's Bakery, that serves a similar version.  I most recently had it while staying at the Opryland Hotel.  While Brad was off work during the holidays, I really wanted to try making it myself.  Unfortunately we never got around to it.  So a few weekends ago, I decided I wanted to make it, so I bought all the ingredients and attempted it.  I found the recipe on Food Network's website.  I had never made poached eggs before, so this was definitely a new adventure.  I also cut the recipe in half.

Bacon & Egg Sandwiches

On the weekends, I always try and cook breakfast for Brad and me.  He loves Bacon and Egg sandwiches.  After Valentine's Day, we had some Sister Schubert rolls leftover.  We rarely buy the tin of rolls for this reason.  But we decided to try using the rolls instead of loaf bread for our Bacon and Egg Sandwiches.  They turned out really well, and Brad wanted me to share this with everyone!
