Pricey Breakfast Food Made at Home

This past weekend my girls and I had a fantastic time celebrating mine and Whitney’s birthdays. I’ll share more of the fun details on Friday’s post, but here’s a little bit of how we spent our three days and two nights together.

We traveled to Whitney’s house and we stayed there, but they had made plans for us to go out and enjoy their favorite restaurants and shops in the area. However, we ate breakfast at Whitney’s house both mornings. Alli was in charge of that meal. She really likes to try new things for that morning meal, and both of her offerings were really good, but the second day was super good!

Egg white bites

Egg whites are so good for you! They improve brain function, promote strong bones and muscles and are low in fat. But, let’s face it, they can be boring! I found the Egg White omelette Bites at Dunkin‘ Donuts and loved them!! I found a method and recipe to make them at home so we could enjoy them more often AND all the health benefits, too!

The solution was really easy! I filled the egg mixture into muffin tins, then everyone chose two of the muffin cups as “theirs.” They filled a small bowl with the ingredients

Easy Pumpkin Banana Coffee Cake

There’s nothing quite like getting home from a week away and being handed ready-homemade meals. That was my “welcome home” blessing from my girls this weekend. After being with my parents for eight days while my dad has been in the hospital (and now in rehab), I came home on Friday. My body, heart and emotions were spent, but I was so thankful I could be there to help. It’s a joy, and the Lord gave strength each step of the way.

Coming home was God’s timing, which made it especially sweet. Whitney was in Tennessee visiting her sister for 24 hours, so we all got to be together (another blessing!). Then before we parted, they handed me containers of food that they had prepared for us, to lighten my load! Supper/lunch meals consisting of a chicken casserole, salad, homemade bread, and chili. Then for breakfast, Pumpkin Banana Coffee Cake and bananas. I cried. How thoughtful. How appreciated! It truly touched my heart.
