I have great neighbors. Really, I do. There is a family next door that has been amazing since the day we moved in! The man who owns the house has lent us tool after tool as we've attempted projects. He is funny and friendly. We've done football dinners where he's brought over his homemade chili as well as beers on the patio during the summer. He has raised three great kids! The youngest was a huge help after we got a dog with toileting him and feeding him on the times we've been in a pinch.
All of this is to preface the following picture. I am friends with the neighbors on FaceBook and randomly the youngest and middle child will post regarding what's being cooked in the household - which usually prompts a craving for me these days. On Monday, there was a post about making brownies to which I commented that they could feel free to leave me treats anytime! A while later the doorbell rang and it was the delivery of warm, ooey-gooey double fudge brownies with a perfectly crispy crust and powdered sugar! I ate 1 and 1/2 brownie Monday night and the other two Tuesday at work. Saturday we are going over the the neighbors for a 22 lb Turkey dinner and I'm going to get some pointers on making better brownies :)
Tomorrow is the annual holiday breakfast at my school. This is what I made :) It's a recipe that Laura introduced me to many years ago and I forgot about it for a few years. I made it for Anna's annual Holiday Bash last Friday so, with the input of the ladies that work in my classroom, I decided to make it for tomorrow. It's not really a breakfast item - but the breakfast lasts all day so I think it'll work. All it is is crescent rolls unrolled, cream cheese spread, and then veggies of your choice on top. DELICIOUS! Of course I went to the grocery store to pick up the crescent rolls and cream cheese and made some impulse purchases - more turkey bacon, smartfood, cape cod chips, cheese-its, and sierra mist. I really should be banned from grocery shopping for the next three months.
THAT'S RIGHT! ONLY 3 MORE MONTHS! Or 91 days...but who's counting?!
And, this is a picture of the eggs that I cooked for my rice and eggs yesterday :) I might get that craving again soon since it was so amazing.
I think it's AWESOME that you have such great neighbors. There really aren't many of them left. The brownies look delicious. The thing you made for your holiday breakfast looks great as well.
